Digital Scrapbook Albums


I've decided I want to make digial scrapbooks for people who don't know how, who don't have time, or just plain don't want to do it themselves.

So I'm trying to think of a great name for this new "business" so I can make business cards and get my name out there.

Here's the challenge. If YOU think of the name I end up using, I will make YOU a 8 x 8 photo album with the pictures you want as a great big THANK YOU!!
