I'm down here in southern utah. I want to start digital scrapping but I'm not sure where to start.

There are so many things to learn! I wish there was a class i could go to down here. Which program is easiest to use with all the different templates and things you can download? And once you get them done, what's a good way to print them if you don't have a 12x12 printer but want to print them 12x12?
