Dude! Overlap Things!

Dude! I know you get in trouble for stacking things all over your apartment. Take out your frustrations in your scrapbook.



You don't have to see a whole picture to know what's there. Overlapping adds a little mystery. And a little mystery keeps the mind intrigued.

Overlap and add some depth. Shallow is so not you!

Dude! Find the Scissors!

Dude! Not all your pictures need to be the same size. Find a pair of scissors!



The pix in the middle were all much larger before I took out the scissors. Cropping the pix cuts out the clutter, both emphasizing what's important and allowing more pix per page.

Well-cropped pix are the opposite of all girly frills that they try to sell you at the Hobby Lobby. Dude! Don't cave to the establishment. Be your own man!

Dude! Use a Map!

Yes, you're the one who knows how to fold a map back up so that it fits in the glove compartment. Now, unfold it and us it in your scrapbook.



Including a map with a couple of pix helps you remember where you were when you took them. This is especially true of shots that cover broad landscapes.

Maps. A clean and simple way to help preserve the memories of your adventures.

Plus, you won't have to bother to stop and ask directions the next time you're there.
