Journaling on your Photos Virginia Scrapbooking Retreats

Linkworthy: Journaling 'on' Your Photos brought to you by Virginia Scrapbook Retreats written by Ali Edwards
Virginia Scrapbook Retreats offers 3 day 2 nights weekend getaway scrapbook retreats in Virginia and Nags Head. See if we are coming to your town by visiting our site

Every once in a while, I like to share something that I deem 'Linkworthy'. Today's link is an article, which is all about taking photos specifically with the intent to journal on them, and is written by Ali Edwards.

Digi scrappers should see the relevance of this information immediately, but if you're a paper scrapper, don't discredit what Ali has to say. You too can incorporate this technique into your scrapbooks. All you'll need is an image editing program like Adobe Photoshop Elements that you can use to add your text before you send your photos to print. Even Picasa, the free image software by Google gives you the ability to add text blocks to an image, although the formatting options might be a bit limiting in comparison.

One of my goals for this week will be to take on Ali's Creative Challenge and take some photos with the intent to journal on them. Will you be taking the challenge also?
