I have found that along with all the fun photos I have of my family, my friends, my dogs and other things, I have loads of beautiful nature photographs. I live in Minnesota, so we are fortunate enough to have four wonderful seasons full of beautiful opportunity to shoot nature all around us. So, I have been looking for a way to use photography that I already have, but might not scrapbook in the traditional way on a page. I decided to put together some 6" x 4" inspirational "Quote Cards" which I will print and display in a Picfolio Minutes Album. That way, I can just flip the page every now and then to display a brand new inspirational Quote Card. Enjoy!
Instructions:
Create a new 4 x 6 Pages (landscape) project. Choose beautiful nature photographs, then add pages to your project and drag a photo on to each page. Zoom in and out, move, flip and/or rotate photographs so they will allow for quotes to fit well within the photograph.
The above card used "Chocolate Box" font.
The above card used Frail&Bedazzled font.
The above card used Fortunaschwein font.
The above card used Hurricane font.
The above card used Ginga font.
Where did you get your fonts?

Can we get copies of the quotes anywhere?

Hi ladies :)
I got all my fonts from dafont.com (they're free there).
The quotes that are on these cards are here:
The morning of life is like the dawn of a day, full of purity, visions, and harmony.
- Chateubriand
Faith is like a radar that sees through the fog - the reality of things at a distance that the human eye cannot see.
- Corrie Ten Boom
For a tree to become tall, it must growtough roots among the rocks.
- Friedrich Nietzsche
I am not afraid of storms, for I am learning to sail my ship.
- Louisa May Alcott
One can enjoy a rainbow without necessarily forgetting the forces that made it.
- Mark Twain
Hope that helps! :)

These are really pretty.Well done you!
As a step further, I am doing the same thing on 12 x 12 page prints and then putting them on my everyday display - and changing them regularly of course! So I can always see them as I walk past during the day.

Thanks everyone for the kind comments :)
I do have to credit Chris, my bf, with taking the photos. He's quite the photographer ;)

I have created larger sizes of these, uploaded to CMPhotoCenter and created Photo Panels to give as even more permanent gifts. Creating an 8.5 x 11 page in SBC+, then an 8x10 photo panel works great for a desk gift!!
