I took this picture off center with a lot of "blank" space.  On Ali Edward's blog Friday, she explains that by using blank space in your photos, you can easily journal directly onto the photo by hand or in photoshop.  I decided to give it a try.  In my Photoshop Elements program, I made my canvass to be 11 inches wide by 8.5 inches tall (standard scrapbook size going in a landscape orientaion rather than portrait).  I added the journaling and a brush embellishment (Digital Scrapbook Memories Seasons & Holidays designed by Danielle Catalano-Titus). When it comes in, I can just slip it right into my scrapbook and move on.
