Printing Digital Scrapbook Pages with Shutterfly
Digital
scrapbook printing can be a pricey process. In order to get high quality
prints, there's really only been 2 options for turning your digital
scrapbook pages from files on the hard drive to pages in your hand. Option 1
is putting the files on a jump drive or CD and then taking them to the local
copy shop for printout. Option 2 is purchasing your own high quality digital
color printer. Either way works fine save but 2 small details; I'm lazy and
I have kids!
I'll be honest,
sometimes I don't want to pack the kids in the car. I love my rugrats to
death and I'll do anything for them, but they're so needy. (Kidding of
course) First you have to get them dressed, (because "around the house"
clothes are different then "out in public" clothes) then you have do their
hair, find their shoes, brush their teeth...and the list goes on. I've often
thought that if I did find Aladdin's magic lamp, wish #2 would be my very
own clone. (Wish number 1 of course, is 100 more wishes. YOU CAN TOO DO
THAT!)
Now, having my own photo quality printer would also be great, but then I
gotta buy the special paper, and then I gotta buy the special ink, and then
I gotta get the book to figure out how to work my special printer, and then,
finally out of frustration, I gotta back over my brand new printer with the
car which takes us back to my previous dilemma of having to pack the kids in
the car. There's got to be another way. And now, thanks to Shutterfly
digital scrapbook printing, maybe there is!
