Cutting and Cropping

Cutting and cropping photographs enhances the overall look and feel of your scrapbook.

Often photographs aren't quite the right shape and size, or the photographic image is improperly centered.

Having oversized or off centered photographs creates an air of unprofessionalism.

Carefully cropped and sized photographs, on the other hand, enhances the overall look and feel of your scrapbook.

Ways To Carry Out Cutting And Cropping

There are two main ways to undertake the cutting and cropping of your photographs to fit your scrapbook. 

• Manual: The low tech way to solve these problems is to manually crop and shape the photograph using a pair of scissors or an exacto knife.If you are manually cropping and cutting pictures, make sure that you mark the outline you want with chalk, pencil or eye shadow before you cut. Remember the old saying, measure twice and cut once. To manually change a distracting or cluttered scrapbook background, simply cut out the background and replace it with a new paper background. This allows the eye to focus on the people instead of the clutter behind them.
• Digital: The high tech solution to your photograph problems is to use digital programs or apps. Using these programs, photographs can be magically darkened, brightened, sharpened, enlarged, and cropped without ruining your original photograph. Some programs even allow you to change the color and background of the photograph.
