I have created this page by request of people who have seen me use my original designs on my own family history pages at Ancestry and here on my own site, and wished to have a way to purchase them. This kit is named in honor of my grandfather, Edgar Hart.

You can use the files in these kits in two ways:

1. On Ancestry.com, through their "Print Posters and Books" Section. If you have used this tool, you know that you can upload your own images to use. What a lot of people don't realize is that you can upload more than just your photos to put on the pages. You can include images to be backgrounds, embellishments, tags etc.

Using this tool does not require you to have any graphics program, such as Photoshop or Paint Shop Pro, nor to know how to use one.

If you have never used this tool, you should give it a try. it's free to use, you can print your own pages if you want. Another misconception is that it's only for having Ancestry print a bound book for you. While you can do this at a very reasonable price, you can also print the pages on your own computer.

2. Within a graphics program, such as Photoshop or Paint Shop Pro, to make your own printable scrapbook and genealogy pages to print out (Digital Scrapbooking.)

Over the course of time, I will be adding to the existing kits and will be focusing even  more on things that will give you even more flexibility when using Ancestry's Printing feature.
