In today’s technology equipped world, most phones now come with a built-in camera. Surprisingly enough, these little cameras can take decent quality photos. Most of us tend to forget our cameras at home on the kitchen table or in the living room. The nice thing about cell phones, is that we tend to never leave our house without it. Since most phones have a built-in camera, you essentially have every opportunity to take pictures of the precious memories you might have otherwise missed due to the fact that your regular camera was forgotten at home. So whenever you find yourself in a bind and you forgot your traditional camera at home, pull out your camera phone and start snapping away!
She Enjoyed It by Michelle Ward
Digital Supplies: Kit: Club Digital May 2010 by DSP Designers (Digital Scrapbookplace), Software: Paint Shop Pro X2, Fonts: Drummon, A bite.
Design Notes: The photo I wanted to use, a favorite of my son and I, was taken with my cell phone.
The quality was not good so I converted it to a sepia tone to match the brown background paper and sharpened it. I also made some adjustments to the brightness and contrast. I erased the "Happiness" wording from the overlay and added in "my boy", then used the overlay as a mask with the green paper.
Journaling: Being a mother is not the easiest job in the world. And AJ was not the easiest baby. He often tried my patience as a baby. He was fussy and stubborn and he had a way of letting me know that he was the one in charge. But AJ has always been the sweetest kid in the world. He is loving and kind, smart and so funny. He's my buddy and I enjoy his company. He makes me laugh and smile. My day is not complete until I've had a big 'ole AJ hug. So maybe motherhood isn't always easy. I wouldn't trade a single day. My mother had a great deal of trouble with me, but I think she enjoyed it. Mark Twain
