When I first started digital scrapbooking I downloaded LOTS of “freebies” from designers’ blogs. It was a great way to gather lots of supplies quickly (and obviously frugally!) while I was learning Photoshop.
As time went on I began to find a style I liked and began to purchase from a few favorite designers. But over the past few years the digital community has grown a lot and finding favorite {quality} designers can be overwhelming. It’s one of the reasons {I LOVE} The Daily Digi.
Each month at The Daily Digi, seven reputable digital designers contribute a sample of their work (usually a kit or set of templates). Then the collection or Digi Files is sold like a grab bag. You know who contributed to that month’s digi files, but you don’t know what’s inside–yet. Every few days a designer is featured and her (or his!) digital contribution is then revealed. It’s very fun to see what’s inside the Digi Files and even more fun to learn more about the designers, their interests, their designing process, and their art. It’s pretty much awesome.
In between the designer features there are lots of fun reads, inspiration, product reviews, and digi tutorials. And every Friday they release a new podcast all about DIGITAL SCRAPBOOKING! I like to listen while I clean the house!
Basically you can tell, I love The Daily Digi. It’s definitely one of my favorite daily web stops. {Please excuse me, I’m a bit isolated here since none of my “real life” friends are into digi, so I’ll jump at the chance to read a blog or interact with friends who “get” my obsession!}
Sooooo, as if learning about new designers, having access to tutorials, and getting to listen to an hour of digital scrapbooking talk wasn’t cool enough, another AMAZING thing about The Daily Digi is that each month’s Digi File is only $5!
Yeah. It’s kind of hard to believe, actually, since the Digi Files are so stuffed with product and would EASILY be worth 10 times that. But designers (like me!) appreciate the opportunity for more exposure to new potential customers, and scrapbookers appreciate a great deal since it’s a {practically risk free} way to test out new designers.
A new feature, the Playbook was added this summer and I {LOVE} it too. A Playbook is an interactive ebook of {at least} 25 pages of digi tutorials, tips, and tricks. Think of it as an extremely helpful {digi} magazine. Download a {FREE} Playbook.
Now, how in the world do you get all these AMAZING Daily Digi deals? Glad you asked!
