SCRAPBOOK PAGE IDEAS

Select your page topper and stamp it across the top of the page as well as down the right hand side. Stamp any animals or themed images as desired. To finish the border topper, use earth colors and a ruler and draw horizontal lines across the top in behind the letters and images. Do the same down the side with vertical lines. You may wish to add some stickers to finish the border.
Make a barn with red paper, using white paper to create doors and windows.
Choose a single word title and cut it out of photos of a ripe wheat field, a hay field, or livestock herds. Be sure to use large block letters.
