Using tickets on your scrapbook pages by Happy Scrap
Arts
If you made
paper scrapbooks before making digital scrapbook pages, you might have used
your admission tickets when you visited places. I always kept them as a
souvenir and pasted them on my pages in my scrapbooks. Tickets are a wonderful
way to show where you have been and when. I loved to use them. But now with the
digital photos books you might think that you cannot use them anymore. Well yes
you can still use them, and I do use them a lot.
If you have
a scanner you can scan them and use them on your pages, but if you do not have
one, you can try to make a photo of the ticket. You can use it on your page that
way.
Unfortunately
lots of parks don’t give those tickets anymore, you just get a receipt, like in
the supermarket, and you don’t want to use those on your scrapbook pages.
Did you
think about making your own ticket? It’s possible and not that hard to do.
You can use
the traditional ticket and write the name of the park or place you visited on
it, and even add the date. You can also use an empty journal card and embellish
that with journaling and maybe even a logo. Most of the time the places we
visit have sites and they have their logo on it. So you can go and download it
and then use it on your ticket.
It’s easy
to make your own journal card in My Memories Suite. Just open an empty page and
click on shapes and lines. Click on “Add” and choose the shape you want to use
for your ticket. There is a big choice of shapes so there will be one that
inspires you for sure. After clicking on close you can choose the color you
want by clicking on “Color” and then even add a shadow if you wish. After that
you can still change the size of the shape so your card can fit with all you
want to put on it. If you plan on using it more, you can save an empty card so
that you can use it every time you want to make your own ticket.
Here are some exemples for you:
Kit Tour de France and Paris
I have made
a free quick page for you with an empty ticket on it, so give it a try with
that page and see if you like the
result.
