Dude! Cut it Out!

Dude! When you're at the barber shop you might just need a trim. When you arrive at boot camp the cut is a little more thorough.

Welcome to the Ft. Leonard Wood of scrapbooking, soldier!

Sometimes you need to crop a pic. Sometimes you need to cut off everything except the essential element. Get out those scissors and start cutting!



Some pix are filled with clutter and distractions. Dude! Cut them out and throw them away. Glue down only what you want to see and remember. Plus, if the sky was gray all day, why waste valuable space with all that bland?

Dude! It's time to separate the men from the boys!

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!
