I really, really want to post more pages in 2011 but I am facing some challenges. First of all, my scanner seems to be producing inconsistent images. Parts seem overexposed and I'm not sure what to do about it. Secondly, I have yet to find a great stitching program that works with Windows 7 and and doesn't cost an arm and a leg. I used to use a program that came with my scanner - well, two or three scanners ago. That definitely isn't going to work now. Third, I really, really stink at photographing layouts. Even when I use a tripod I can't seem to get a good image. If anyone has any good tips I'd love to hear them - this is how my layouts are coming out right now:
BTW as bad as that image is, I LOVE those photos. That's my niece last summer grabbing onto my daughter in the kiddie pool. Plus I love those bright Doodlebug papers, and the simplicity of the whole thing. Thanks to
Jennifer for giving me the Bazzill border.

I haven't scanned many of my layouts lately but have a bunch under my twopeas profile, which is artaxx. I use ArcSoft Scan-n-Stitch Deluxe. It costs about 40 bucks but works so well and is super quick. I have had great results. Here's the link I found.

struggle with stitching my layouts too! I just take pics of them and crop/edit in photo shop because of that struggle! Cute pics and layouts!
ReplyDeleteCute layout.
ReplyDeleteI think your photography of your layouts is great. Just by looking at the layout on the previous day is perfect.
