Inspired by Mum's Old Photos

I am having a ball scrapping Mum's old photos digitally!
This is my Grandma back in 1947. I love this photo of her laughing.

Adding a vignette to your photos

I have always loved how people add dark edges to their photos...well I just found out how to do it and I am a bit excited. I had been shown to do it by using the burn tool...but this is heaps better!
Here is the link to where I learned it... http://scrapbookdimensions.com/blog/?p=607

My Scrapblog layouts so far

Here are my first two layouts using http://www.scrapblog.com/ mentioned in a previous post.


Then I discovered that in the already created 'templates' there were some cool pages and I just had to add my photos and tweak them a bit...so these next ones aren't my designs but I think they look cool.





To see my Scrapblog album there is a link to it in my sidebar.

edited to add...and this one I just made from scratch
