Simple Scrapbooks™ Scrapbook Boutique is aptly named. This Mac scrapbooking software features the design sensibilities of the well-know Simple Scrapbooks magazine design team. Scrapbook Boutique is powered by the same Storyrock engine as Polaroid My Memories Suite so the two packages have very similar tools and features.

The lovely designer pages, albums and embellishments that are included with the software are vintage Simple Scrapbooks style. If you’re a fan of the magazine’s designers, you’ll love the look and this Mac scrapbooking software is very easy to learn and use.

Simple Scrapbooks Scrapbook Boutique doesn’t allow you to embed video or links or add sound to albums so apart from importing digital elements and images, the importing options are fairly limited. The scrapbooking software has most of the same design features of Polaroid My Memories Suite but offers fewer output options. Those options are limited to printing on your own computer, exporting to a printing service, exporting as jpg images or creating a photobook, greeting card or calendar. The software lacks MemoryMixer and Polaroid My Memories Suite’s ability to create movies or interactive albums with embedded video, music, narration or hot spot links.

Simple Scrapbooks Scrapbook Boutique’s help and support is limited to online and in-program help and a user’s manual. You can check for software updates from within the program which is a convenient feature but otherwise the help is pretty sparse.
