Scrapbook My Life

Although photo corners were created as a way to attach a picture to your scrapbook layout without using a glue stick or some other form of permanent adhesive, they also work well as a subtle page embellishment. Here are a few ideas to consider:

• A date stamped on a strip of vellum provides a fun and functional photo corner.
• Fashion custom photo corners by stitching buttons to cardstock triangles.
• Create the illusion of photo corners by attaching clusters of three eyelets or brads to opposite corners of a photo mat.
• String beads on a length of wire and wrap around a special photo.
• Dangle charms from a small safety pin to create a cute corner for a baby-themed page.
• Using small stickers, punches, or die cuts to decorate a pre-made photo corner is an easy way to reinforce the theme of a page.
• Dried flowers woven through a strip of mesh provide a natural accent for outdoor photos.
• Trim scraps of printed paper with decorative scissors and adhere to the tops of pre-made photo corners.
• Heritage photos look elegant with photo corners wrapped in antique lace.
