TURN TO HANDWRITTEN NOTES FOR SCRAPBOOK PAGE INSPIRATION
Design by Kim Moreno
Kim preserved her son's Valentine's Day message of love by including it in a spot of honor on this scrapbook page. To further drive home the lovey theme, Kim created a large heart-shape mat for her photo, and edged it with hand-stitching and punched scallop-edge circles.
Editor's Tip: Scan and resize handwritten notes too big to scrapbook. If you have a love note penned by a child that you'd like to keep but that is either too big to include or is fading, use your computer scanner to capture it and resize or adjust setting and print out a copy.
See other ways you can use your scanner as a scrapbooking tool.
