Help Needed: Printing Newspaper Articles that Look Like Newspaper Articles

I'd like to make a "scrapbook" of newspaper clippings I've found that relate to my family. I'd like the clippings to LOOK like I clipped them out of the paper, but they always print out huge. Any suggestions?

    When the image opens, use a web clipper to save it. I use Snagit, but there are other free ones, which can then manipulate the image. You should then be able to make them the size you want.

    I use Snag it too and love it. Good luck!

      I'm not familiar with Snat It... I'll look into that. Thanks, Michelle!

    How is it going? I just use the print screen command from my keyboard. Then I paste it into the editing program that I use (Photoshop Elements). Once in Photoshop Elements, play with the blending layers or the filters to see if you can create the aged newspaper look.

      I REALLY need to get Photoshop Elements & learn how to use it. Maybe this fall! But, your steps should help using a different program.
