I bet you are itching to learn more and try out new techniques. Unfortunately, Simple Scrapper can’t teach you everything in one day. Patience, grasshopper! Simple Scrapper will keep you up to date with the latest and greatest in the community and most importantly, keep you sane and scrapping simply!

Instead of haphazardly Googling for tutorials and beginner’s tricks, check our our top 3 sites to explore and learn about digital scrapbooking. Each of these sites host fantastic step-by-step instructions on digital techniques. Don’t read them all now – just bookmark them for when you’re stuck or need some inspiration.

The Best Digiscrapping Tutorials

  1. Digital Scrapbook University
  2. Cottage Arts
  3. Two Peas in a Bucket

A Note on GIMP – While these tutorials at Scrapbooks Gone Digital are not nearly as complete as the “best-of’ list above, what they do well is offer tips and tricks for digiscrapping with GIMP. Why use GIMP? Because it is 100% free. For new digital scrappers on a tight budget, combine GIMP and freebies for a free ticket to creativity and simple scrapping.
