Repeated Photos


This is a very simple design idea that anyone can try. Just use a photo again! You can use exactly the same photo, crop one of them or even cut one into pieces! Really. This is digital scrapbooking, remember!

This article is about using the photo again but keeping it the same colour. There will be a separate article on changing one of the photos shortly.

Use the same photo many times for movement


It's an old photo but there aren't many recent ones of John jumping into water ... this page was made in Smilebox. The movement effect is best with three or more photos.

Crop one of the photos


Use one big and one small photo. This is John at the Swanage railway. I just liked the little frame so used it for a small photo. I used elements and papers from several kits. Word Art is from Connie Prince's ChuggaChooChoo, the "choo choo" is from Ronnie McCray's Train kit.

In this one I used a close up of me to show the missing teeth. "Smile" quickpage by K Studio.

Split one of the photos


This page was made for a MyMemories Facebook page challenge. The challenge was actually to split up a photo but I thought it looked good with the actual photo in it too. Kit is Connie Prince's Limelight.
