Add Photograph Mosaics to Your
Scrapbook
An attractive technique for placing
photographs into scrapbooks is the photograph mosaic. Mosaics
stretch photographs into an artistic rendition of the original
photograph. Maps can also be stretched in this way. This method
might be employed to create a funky look for a friend scrapbook or
as a background for someone who likes computers, GIS, or geography.
A basic cropping technique is used to create a photographic mosaic.
Simply cut a photograph into evenly spaced squares. Then, glue the
squares onto the background leaving an equal space between each
square.
A white background or a background matching the background color of
the photograph will add to the effect. A background of a contrasting
color will reduce the spaced out effect of the photograph.
