Laying It Out There! | Digital Scrapbooking Inspiration

Hey Scrappers,

Are you making time to scrap?  I know it makes me happy when I regularly take time to scrap…just a little time, but some time nearly every day to scrap.  (Now sometimes that means I only have a few minutes to look through a folder of photos and pick which ones I’ll be scrapping, but that counts as “scrapping”.)  I would encourage you to make that time.

So…are all of my layouts masterpieces?  NOPE.  Not at all.  I spend more time on some of them, but many of them are simply the photos, the story, and a few embellishments.  In fact when I took a look back at a few of the layouts I’ve scrapped in the last 6 months, I noticed a trend…

I LOVE just laying it out there.  Making it look like I just dropped those fresh-from-the-photo-lab prints right down on the page.  They even have a bit of a curl to them.

That is the inspiration for my new product this week.  Curled Frames.  And they are super-easy to use as I show you in this video tutorial.  You can use them with or without a template.
