Create Your Avatar with Scrapblog

Hello Fellow Scrapbloggers!

Today I have another fab project to share with you. This one is great for anyone with an online presence. Here at Scrapblog we promise “endless possibilities” and to show you a little bit more about what we mean, today we are going to show you how to make a creative avatar.

What is an avatar? Here’s the definition found on dictionary.com:
“-a graphical image that represents a person, as on the Internet.”

So, if you are online and want a creative way to show off your photo, Scrapblog can offer you “endless possiblities” to do so! This project is pretty simple all you need to get started is a photo of yourself and scrapblog.com.

Step One:
Click Start Creating from the Scrapblog.com homepage.

Step Two:
Once inside the builder, upload your photo

Step Three:
To make the canvas a square, select a shape and cover enough of the background to simulate a square shape.
