The nursing home wanted a small picture (no larger than 5 x 7) to be put outside the room. Knowing how some items at the nursing home grow legs and walk away, I had no intention of giving an original photograph.
The MyMemories Digital Scrapbook Suite software came in handy. I scanned in a couple of photographs from the family album and used one of the quick page templates. These pages are like mats. The background is already decorated. You just insert the photograph(s) into the hole. Very quick. I also used the text tool to add Ma's name to the page. It's just not shown here. Album pages can be exported as images (.jpg, .png). Printed out, trimmed to size,I thought it looked quite nice. I used a different quick page template and made one for Dad's room, too.

That's wonderful! The page is wonderful, that you took the time to make it so special...also wonderful!
ReplyDeleteIt turned out lovely! (I'm sure it helps to remind the staff of who their patients once were.)
