Many of you have asked for tips on how to get better pictures of your layouts so you can put them online or submit them to magazines. In today’s episode for Members we move out of the Paperclipping studio once again so I can show you where I photograph my layouts and share my tips for better pictures of your scrapbooking pages.
In case you’re curious to see the layout that I demonstrated with in my tutorial, I’e posted it below…
The Great Outdoors
Incidentally, this is another version of the left-hand side of the Flexible Template I shared with you in December. Because I had fewer photos for this layout, I used patterned paper to fill in the gaps. I also cropped my photos to a larger size.
Journaling in layout reads: Aug. 2007- The Heap Reunion in Greenspeake is a longstanding tradition, since Israel’s grandmother (Nana’s mom) was 16, at least. Israel and I stopped camping so we’d never been as a family until this year when Debbie and Jerry let us use their trailer.
It was a crazy year to start. We had monsoon rainstorms the entire time with the exception of the few hours toward the end. But the kids and Israel loved it so we didn’t swear it off: cousin-time – quad rides – homemade swings – family stories – the scone meal.
Supplies: Cardstock (Bazzill) * Patterned paper, title (My Mind’s Eye) * Wordstrips (7 Gypsies) * Rub-on Letters (Heidi Swapp) * Metal embellishments, buttons, and brads from unknown source.
