Hello sweet friend... I must tell you or perhaps it's 'admit to you' that I am not a scrapbooker. Plain and simple. Creating a scrapbook page from scratch perplexes me & brings me out of my comfort zone. And WHY? I tell my wonderful customers that scrapbook pages are just like a great big card, but it still scares me a little bit. But... I'm learning, one small step at a time.
Check out this little tip that I discovered for framing my photos using the Curly Label Punch.
Note this 'old, but still sweet' summer pic of my kids from way back when. There's a pretty little red scalloping behind them that features the picture and makes it almost pop off the page. That's the Curly Label Punch! Take a peek at the back of the photograph; I simply lined the punched out shape along the back edge of the pic.

Is it a blooper? Nope!
See the weird shaped label punch on the top middle left? Well... I was using scrap, because I could (!) and my one label punch came out without a bottom corner. It was easy for me, this very Type A gal to overlook that, cause I was never going to notice it again. Scraps make your paper go a long way :)
