Here is a list of my go to places for learning about hybrid scrapbooking.
Ali Edwards had a geat series on Digital Scrapbooking. Many of her posts are useful for hybrid scrapbooking as well, since she outlines things like how to download, save and open digital files. Also be sure to check out the Hybrid Scrapbooking category on her blog.
Jessica Sprague has posted a Beginner's Guide to using your computer to tell your stories.
Cathy Zielske also has a number of posts highlighting Hybrid Scrapbooking and video tutorials here.
Karla Dudley, who incidentally is the person who really inspired me to start hybrid scrapbooking, also has various tutorials on her blog.
Karen Grunberg has posted a number of tutorials here.
Many of the sites above also offer free downloads from time to time. You can also find free digital kits at most digital scrapbooking sites. Here are a few to get you started.
Also consider signing up for the newsletters from the sites, to get notification of specials and new freebie releases.
Enjoy the journey!
