Inside my Album: Tech Toolbox

October 25, 2018 By Melissa Shanhun Leave a Comment

Each week I share a scrapbook layout to give you a little sneak peek into what I’m scrapping, and inspire you to play with pretty pixels too. Today I’m sharing a page about what's in my tech toolbox.

Layout: Tech Toolbox

Tech Toolbox - Digital Scrapbook Page

How I did it

For this page, I used the rule of thirds to design my page. A 1/3 strip of patterned paper and a column of photos (with my fave white borders) offsets the large journalling box.

I wrote all my journalling in one big text box, it allowed me to get all my feelings out.

I added a title with an alpha and text combo to add interest.

Journaling

Canon Powershot G16

We got our camera in 2014 and I still love it. I hope to learn more of the features when I get a chance. Love the mega zoom style cameras as they have a nice big lens but aren't as huge as a DSLR

Eye-Fi Card

Despite our new camera having Wifi, I still use our Eye-Fi Card to geotag and automatically transfer our photos.

The Wifi on the camera needs to be linked to a phone to geotag. 🙁 Not happy Canon

PC

My trusty 3-year-old PC got a new case in April when the on switch finally died. Phill and I moved the computer over to the new case hassle free! Windows 10, 32Gb of RAM, a 250Gb SSD and 3Tb internal hard drive mean it will keep working for a lot longer.

Our laptop is still working, though the battery isn't reliable. Almost 5 years old!

Phone

As much as I dislike many things about Apple (you need an active credit card to even sign in to the Apple account) I'm still using and enjoying my iPhone 6S+ Yep, it's big, but I love being able to use it to share, photos and use the Project Life app.
