I’ve been holding onto this idea in my binder for a while so I was thrilled when I finally had the right page to create with this layout.
It was so easy to use this concept with travel photos since I had tons of photos to choose from and I needed a lot of pictures on one page. I was able to shrink down all of these pictures and then crop them to a 2×2. I LOVE the copier at our stores. If you haven’t tried it, it’s a great way to get a lot of stuff on one layout. This page also has one of my favorite products…the white Uni-ball pen. It’s a gotta have

I love it! I do a lot of pages with small pictures as my Canon camera has a computer feature with it where you can print index photos.

We have a low-end digital video camera, at resolution too low for the screencaps to look good printed at 4″x5.3″, and I like printing those very small, no more than 2.5″ wide and sometimes as small as an inch wide, a size that works great with the Sizzix filmstrip die (the long 12″ one with nine windows). The still captures from the video camera are the only way I can capture some of the silly things my rabbit does. A contented bunny flop happens much too fast for a still camera!
I’ve also used tiny photos another way with that filmstrip die, on a two-page layout for the butterfly conservatory on Mackinac Island. I used my best photos at full size, and cropped down other photos with my trimmer – those taken from too far away, or parts in the margins or backgrounds of otherwise uninteresting photos – and at 1″ x 3/4″ in the filmstrip, those tiny bits of photos looked like miniaturized good photos instead of tiny bits from ho-hum pictures.

Does the color copier accept camera memory cards, or would I need to use the Sony Picture Station? I’m looking to get the really matte look of items from the copier – how matte can the Sony picture printer go? Basically, I have some images (not photos – they’re actually screencaps of some kind comments my friends left for me on Facebook after the death of my pet) that I want printed in color, and I don’t have access to anything like a decent color printer.
