LOL! Seriously tho...you can give it a try without committing to doing it every time. I do both. I think the computer is part of our lives (it's a huge part of mine) and as such, is a natural part of our scrapbooks. I certainly don't think a good story has less value simply because it's printed on a computer/printer instead of handwritten. I think whatever you choose to do will be appreciated.

I also do not understand how you print you title on your page. I often do not do the title until after I have the layout done so I could not run that paper thru the printer. I also would not like to have to cut out the title and they adhere it to the page. I think the letter would really look a little sloppy at that point. Also, I do not have a computer handy to my scrapbooking and journaling is a very spontaneous thing to me. I don’t use fonts or the computer mostly because I am not that good with it.

What kind of question is that?? LOL YES I use my fonts -- what kind of font site owner would I be if I didn't? LOL I use a combination, fonts and handwriting, for the same reasons you listed. If I have a lot of journaling to fit in a fixed amount of space, I'll often journal on the computer -- I can mess with type size to fit it all in. I also often use fonts for titles -- it lends a polished look, and adds to the overall design of the layout, for me. If I have a smaller amount of journaling, or just a caption, I handwrite it. Handwriting is definitely a piece of you, and definitely should be preserved in a scrapbook. I always stress that in my classes. Do I or don’t I?? What kind of question is that??
