where to start?
Jun 3 2009, 12:44 PM EDT
Please help me! I am overwhelmed. My firstborn son is graduating from High School in 3 weeks and I decided I would make him a lifetime scrapbook as a gift. I have the photos organised, book bought and lots of supplies but I don't know how/where to start. I found this site while googling for ideas. I want to write small entries for the pages but do I write the text then organise the photos around it or do I stick the photos first and put text where/if there is room? Thanks :)

HI TBAMom: First, congratulations to you and your son! I usually start by arranging photos on pages first, but I do so knowing that I'll need to leave some room for text and embellishments. Let me ask HP's resident Scrapbooking expert MaryAnn to get in touch with you -- she's awesome and one of the most creative people I know and is an excellent instructor, too! http://expressioncenter.wetpaint.com/account/antonelli You can see some of her Scrapbooking tips here: http://expressioncenter.wetpaint.com/page/Make+Your+Own+Scrapbook and here: Use Digital Scrapbooking Techniques to make a Photobook http://expressioncenter.wetpaint.com/page/Use+Digital+Scrapbooking+Techniques+to+Create+a+Photo+Book and here: http://expressioncenter.wetpaint.com/page/How+to+Project+Videos Good Luck!
