What fun it is to relive my summer memories with Little Honey by scrapbooking her summer book. This is a fun and very easy layout. I picked up on the theme of butterflies from Edventure's butterfly exhibit.
Ingredients: My Minds Eye ... title card, flowers, transparency element; Recollection fabric paper butterflies; Dymo Label Maker; Tim Holtz Vintage Photo distress ink; Stazon Jet Black ink
The Idea...
was to divide the 12" x 12" page into 3" x 3" photos to get in as many photos as I could. Of course there were several photos that would not fit into a 3" x 3" crop space. I kept the idea of 3" x 3" and just made what would be two photos into one 6" x 3" or 3" x 6" photo. I used a couple of the 3" x 3" spaces for embellishing, journaling, and title. I ended up telling a bit of LH's summer adventures at the children's museum with 9 photos.
I use my Photoshop Elements (this is a link to Amazon dot com for Photoshop Elements 10. Two thumbs up for any scrapbooker) to crop my photos, but I also have Googles' Picasa program that is great for resizing photos and so much more. You can find the free download here: Picasa.
Have a Crafty Day!
