No, I’m not taking about french fries and sodas!

How often do you use photos larger than the typical scrapbook size? Not very often probably ... I know I usually don’t. But why not? If you really want to bring focus to your photo than this is a fun way to go! Hopefully after seeing these amazing layouts you’ll give it a try!

Scrapping with a larger photo size still gives you the freedom to use lots of embellishments, but because of that photo size it also gives you the option to do something a little more simple.
