PRINT OUT PHOTOS

design by LEE ANN RUSSELL

Get a textured look by printing your photo directly onto cardstock. Lee Anne converted her photo to black-and-white to heighten the effect.

TIPS
Lighten up. When printing a photo, the lighter the color of the cardstock, the less muddy your image will appear.
Check your hardware. For a distinct print, adjust your printer settings. A photo printed on cardstock is not meant to be perfect, but a higher-quality setting will help with clarity.

SOURCES Cardstock: Bazzill Basics Paper (yellow), KI Memories (blue, green). Patterned paper: KI Memories. Font: Century Gothic. Stickers, brads: Making Memories. Die-cutting tool, dies: QuicKutz. Punch: EK Success.
