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! Just a Little off the Side!

Dude! Don't let the size and shape of the page rule your life!

You can line up your pix and scraps not just to the edge but over the edge! Then trim things to make them fit in your book.



You have many memories of the place beyond what the pix and scraps will allow. Having the elements spilling over the edge shows that you've squeezed in as much as you can but that there's soooo much more. You'll be called to look beyond the pages to let the memories live.

Dude! Go Overboard!
