SOTM July 2009 Karen Ladd - Birthday Party Scrapbook Page

From Rebecca Ludens, About.com

Some snapshots do not turn out as well as we would like for a focal point on a scrapbook page. Read below to find out how Karen overcame this problem.

Birthday Party Scrapbook Page

Ladd
From Karen, "The photos that I had from my daughters 6th birthday were really poor. There wasn't one single photo of my daughter as a focal point and there were several boring photos of her two cakes. So I cropped and then enlarged part of a crowd photo to gain a focal point for the layout."

For more tips for creating a focal point, read "5 Tips for Creating a Focal Point on Your Scrapbook Pages."

Other Techniques to Note - The scalloped border and the brackets are hand-cut. I used stamps, glitter, and silk flowers on this bright, girly page.
