Hi!
My daughter loves to draw and produces a lot of colorful papers (so I don't mind cutting one up). Now my husband challenged me to use one as the background for a LO and I have the perfect picture of her drawing to go with it, but how do I add PP to the handdrawn lines? (she is just one year so there aren't any motives yet
Tanks for any ideas!!

Thank you bgpa - I like the idea of cutting the drawing to a picture size and treating it as such!
I would still also like an idea for the drawing as BG - may be I fibd some time to play around with the idea tomorrow | |

As long as you have many, just try using one as you would use any other patterned paper as your background. | |

My DSD is thinking about scanning a bunch of her 2-year-old's drawings and making them into one of those photo books. Maybe you could do that, and on the first page add the photo of her working on a creation? |

Someone posted a layout for a CHA challenge that used the drawing as a background (I think it was matted with cardstock), and a picture of her drawing on it. It was really cute - I'll have to see if I can find it. |

These are so cute!
I was just thinking about doing a layout of my grandkids' art by scanning, reducing, and printing the art, then making "gold" frames out of a spellbinders frame diecut and gold embossing powder.
Thanks for the reminder! | |
