Layouts w/ 8x10 photos

Hi all! I'll be scrapping some 8x10 cruise formal photos (hopefully) soon & am browsing for ideas. So please post your LOs that use 8x10 photos, I would love to see 'em! (Cruise-related is great but they don't have to be - LOs w/ 8x10 school pics, family portraits, wedding pics, landscapes, whatever, are welcome too).

Show me whatcha got, sb.com! Thanks a bunch in advance.

Hi Sharon, this one is actually an 8 x 12 but you get the idea

Rather simple, but what else can you put on something with a large photo!

There are a few in my gallery I think there are 5 in the wedding section and another of my cat at the end. HTH

This one I recently entered into Estee's Home Challenge. LOVE using 8x10 photos in my layouts!

To me, doing one with a 8x10 the key is to use the wow factor on just a few select embellishments. Larger letters so they do not look lost next to a big picture. Make sure what little paper you will have showing really matches and goes with the theme and colors.

Other than that, they are really quick to do.

Good idea using the larger pictures. I will definately try that (next time picture printing is on sale!) The pages look so great with big pictures. I used an 8 x10 collage (with about 20 pictures on it) that looked good, almost filled the page.

I have cornered the market on several of the standard layouts using an 8 1/2 x 11 photo (especially the 8 1/2 x 11 on the top of the page, and two 4 x 6 horizontally on the bottom).
But the page I picked as my best use of a 8 1/2 x 11 photo is this one. Because the contrast of the red & blue letters provides a title that can gives the photo a run for it's money.

I have a 12 by 15 album just for the mostly professional 8 x 10 portraits one collects through the years. These first two are from that album.

Celebrate It By Momma Paparazzi

This one started out as an 8x10. I cropped it just alittle and it is on a 12x10 page, one of Creative Memories Landscape albums they had out for awhile.

I finally just found the right blue paper to add "Boy" to my title.
