Learn to Scrapbook Using Your Computer

Week in the Life Down Under: Friday

By Leave a Comment

Another day in lockdown! Technically it may not have been lockdown - there could be gatherings of up to 20 people, but all our homeschool activities were still not happening, so we made our own fun!

Layout: Friday

Journalling

Morning: 9:00 we went for a Pokemon walk. Everyone loves the box car. I folded washing during school time.

Afternoon: Brittan and Griffin came for a play and there was SUNSHINE! Lucy left me a love note.

Evening: Enchiladas (soup for me) for tea. Matthew needed a Weetbix too! Phill gave me a massage.

Create the Look

To make the background work I mirrored the background paper to give the page some symmetry.

Oh Snap! The secret to practicall perfect scrapbook pages

I used an Ali Edwards journalling card for the typewritten journaling.

Create a title with a font and stroke

I created a photo collage all on my own for the right hand page of this spread. You can use snapping features to help you align all your photos.

There are several options for snapping, to see them all choose View > Snap To, and select Grid.

You can move the layers around with the Move tool (V) and notice how they gravitate toward the grid lines, making it easy to position them accurately.
