Disclaimer: This is only my opinion! :o) I too have had some frustrations about art and scrapbooking. In the beginning of my scrapbooking adventure (1993), I...
Lisa, it sounds like your life continues to be a whirlwind! It's so good to hear from you. You have been on my mind a lot the last month or so but it has ...
Well written post, theresa. No toe stepping that I can see. You articulated much better, what I was trying to say. Lisa ... So, if I have stepped on some toes,...
These are all excellent ideas Lou! I wanted to add one more...historical fiction. For example, my Great Grandfather (Tisdale) and his family homesteaded in ...
Lou, your art adventures sound fun! Have you made any pages with your painted/dyed/inked papers? It would be neat to see how they look. I imagine they would...
Way back when, when I was reasonably organized, we used to have a question of the week. These could be used for personal journals, or you could write responses...
Hi Theresa, I agree with a lot of what you said, especially about archival integrity and the CM line. I used to sell it, I have not for quite some time. I...
Hi all, It is good to hear from you gals again. I have been going to CM crops for about 8 years now and have completed about a dozen albums (mostly 45 pages...
Hello All, The beauty of scrapbooking is that it can be as individual as the person creating the book. Just like snowflakes, no two books should be alike,...

I can tell you why I use very few of my original heritage photos. I think my grandparents belonged to the "tiny picture club". Nearly all of the photos I...
Hi Lynn, Yes, I'm here and saw your comment about me using copies vs originals in my scrapbooks. My reason is because my originals aren't good enough to be...
Hi Lynne from Ohio, I have a few 3x3s. Now, I know what to do with them. I just have not gotten around to it yet. I think it is a good idea to share with...
It's good that you want your work to last a very long time, and I would like most of mine to last long too. I'm the family historian, so I know the importance...
Have you ever taken a picture copy made on a home computer to a store to have a copy made....it can't be done...they told me it is something to do with the...
Vicki, why would you want to scrape them??? I would ten times rather see an OLD photo than a reprint. The reprints are nice to have clearer images etc. But I...
Helen if you have someone knowledgeable working at the store they can make a copy from a picture made from the computer. I am not exactly sure what you are ...
I take my home copies of pictures in to have copies made all the time. Don't know what that problem can be???? Nancy [Non-text portions of this message have...

This was at a photograhy shop. If you print a picture off the computer and take it in to reprint it, it comes out distorted.. Same size(4x6) as the one you are...
The reason you may be having difficulty is in the way the picture was "produced". When you have a digital photo, still in it's digital format, you can transfer...
The original photos that I was referring to that I don't know what to do with are actually crumbling in my hands. Fortunately, the images have been saved...
I work in stained glass and was always told not to use a photocopy machine to make copies of my drawing because it would distort the image (you need two...
Now, those are the photos that I would be gluing onto acid-free, archival quality cardstock (or matt board that is acid-free and archival quality) and then...

I love those tiny photos! I have enlarged them and love seeing the detail that I missed when looking at them as originals. The photos I have are from my mom's...
