With Valentine’s Day only a couple of weeks away I always find myself in a little panic. I tend to wait until the last minute and find myself still wondering what in the world I can do to bring a little romance into our 18 year old marriage.
This year I thought ahead and I am so excited to present my husband with his gift this Valentine’s Day. So if you are still thinking about what you can do for your special someone, whether it is your husband, boyfriend, or children, this idea will work for you too.
You can use any pictures that you have to do this project. You can use pictures from years ago or current ones. I happened to adore some pictures of my husband and I that a photographer took of us this last fall.
These pictures were not posed which I love. We were trying to pose but got to laughing so hard at ourselves that we couldn’t pose. All the while the photographer was shooting away and he happened to capture the real essence of “us”.
My husband rarely takes times to look at albums I have made or even to look at the pictures on the computer once the photographer has sent them to us. But I know that he would enjoy and cherish these pictures just as much as I do if he had them in a place he could easily see them like digitally scrapped then printed and framed!
I wanted to put the photos on a really pretty background and frame them to put on our bedroom wall.
Once again I have turned to Digital Scrapbooks and More’s Scrap Shop to get 
training and digital scrap supplies to help me out with a project.
First, I took the digital color photos and with the Digi Makeover Converting Color Photos to Black and White training I learned how to change my color photos to Black and White for a romantic look!
After going through the training it was so easy for me to change all my digital images to black and white photos!
After I had converted all my photos to black and white, I got two scrapbooking kits that are found at the Scrap Shop – The Hearts Scrap Kit and the Love Notes Digital Scrapbooking, I took different items from each of these kits and created a digital scrapbooking page.
I arranged the photos under the heart shaped frames. I added some embellishments, WordArt and I was done.
I used the techniques I learned in the whole Getting Started Series Training for Elements Users(lesson 1-6). I had learned from this training how to make a digital scrapbooking page from digital scrapbooking supplies. Then this training taught me how to save my digital scrapbooking page so I could edit it later or even save it in a format so that an online printer could help me print it out and put in a lovely frame! (FYI: Get Photoshop Training too!)
Next, I after I had made my digital scrapbooking page and saved it in the correct format to send to a online printer, then I uploaded my scrap page to to Snapfish.com and had them print it and frame it!
It will absolutely brighten my husbands’ day to wake up each morning to see these pictures that are a reminder that though not every day is perfect, when we have someone to love and they love us back, we should be happy.
I wish each of you a Valentine’s Day that is full of the love that you give as well as the love that you receive.
