Computer Tricks: Frame a Photo |
Do you have all your photos printed in a lab? Don't worry! It doesn't need to stop you from dipping your toes into the great world of computer-infused scrapbooking! In this tutorial, I'll show you how to add a frame to a photo before printing it. Best of all, all of the photos we used in this month's column are standard sizes (4" x 6" and 5" x 7"), which you can easily print at your lab or on the smaller (and cheaper!) sheets of photo paper at home. Also, don't forget to check out the beautiful frames below that you can download and play with for free!
I mentioned previously that I'm a liner-upper. As I thought more about that, I figured, why not line everything up and then give the whole thing a little tilt? I really love the results here, and the best part is that all of my photos are printed on standard-sized papers.
