Here is the absolute fastest way possible to make a digital
scrapbook. It involves using StoryTeller, as the book system
and FotoFusion as the software to design it.
StoryTeller comes with its own software. For beginners
who want to quickly turn photos into a book with minimal
journaling, what you get in the kits works great, and is
easy to use. All you do is drop photos into the pre-designed
page templates.
Using this format, highlights the photos (over the page
designs).
Here is how it works:
1. Choose a page size as either 5” x 7” or 8”
x 10”, according to which StoryTeller size your are
making.
2. Create photo collages that measure the StoryTeller’s
page size.
3. Open the file with the photos
4. Create one page at a time, by selecting photos that you
want on each page.
5. Once they’re chosen, either have the program do
it automatically or drag and drop each photo one by one
onto the page and adjust the size and position of each one
manually.
6. You can then crop them, zoom in or out, do some basic
photo corrections, and color and lighting enhancements once
they are on the page.
7. You can also add effects to the photo frame – adding
borders, frames or shadows.
8. Add text wherever desired, in the color and size of your
choice. Click and drag to position it. Select fonts on your
system.
9. To make the cover, there are 2 options – either
use long paper and the software in the kit or just make
another 8” x 10” or 5” x 7” collage
and glue it to the front and back covers.
