Scrappy Sunday: Photo Collages in Lightroom

This week, I thought I’d give you a video tutorial on how to use Adobe Photoshop Lightroomto create photo collages.

I have been trying to figure out my personal style. I spent some time cruising my Google Reader and Pinterest and reflecting on the items that I tag for inspiration. I love digital, but for a page to really draw me in, it has to have some tried and true paper and glue. However, I like the clean lines, even spacing and simplicity of printing my photos on a collage and then adding them to a larger 12×12 page for embellishing. Is this you too? If so, I now pronounce you a hybrid scrapbooker.

I usually create collages in Photoshop, but since I manage my photos in Lightroom, it’s kind of a pain. Finally, a light bulb went off for me and I realized that I could create hybrid templates in the print module of Lightroom.

Here’s a video on how I did it:

I promised a snapshot of my Project Life journey. I have to say I’m loving it. I’d love it more if the @#$%@#$% dividers would come back in stock. In the mean time, I’m altering regular 4×6 dividers and using a lot the digital templates. Still, it’s a great easy way to keep up with your memory keeping.

(By the way, I’m dangerously close to figuring out how to make this template in Lightroomtoo. Comment here if you want the video.)
