Computer Scrapbooking Page Ideas

Mr. Bunny!

Another fun and easy scrapbook page! The Cliptures clipart is imported in to a layout program, positioned and scaled to size. A background color is added to the page. The layout is printed, trimmed, and attached to a background sheet of paper. Text can be added directly in the layout, or, by hand after the page is printed, Frames and photos are added to the page.

Materials:

- Cliptures: Clipart from Cliptures #48 Occasions 6

- Paper: White for printing layout, a light purple for the background sheet, and dark purple for the photograph frames.

- Scrapbooking glue or adhesive.

- Straight edge ruler, craft knife, and cutting mat for trimming edges from printed layout.

- Decorative edge scissors or circle cutter for cutting photo frames.

Directions:
1. Start a new document in your layout program. Change the background color of the layout to a pastel peach or light orange. (If your program won't let you change the background color of the page, see Adding a Background Color.)

2. Import the Easter bunny clipart and scale the image to about 5" tall. Position it in the lower right part of the page.

3. If you like, you can add text to the layout using the Adding Text technique.

4. Print the layout on white paper.

5. Trim the non-printed edges (1/2") from all 4 sides of the sheet.

6. Center and attach the trimmed sheet onto the background paper with scrapbook adhesive.

7. Cut frames for your photos.

8. Attach the frames and photos to the layout.

That's it!
