How do you scan good quality scrapbook paper?
How do you scan good quality scrapbook paper?
I recently started digital scrapbooking and I tried scanning my scrapbook paper, but there is a lot of noise and grains in the scanned file. I scan on 300 dpi and 4 x 6 in. The scanner’s glass has no problem since I tried scanning receipts and magazines. Would I have this problem if I bought a scanner designed for scanning scrapbook paper?

When I first switched to digital I tried scanning in my paper too ( because I had SOOO much) but I found that I couldn’t get the quality I liked either. I eventually gave up and just started scanning all the free download websites for paper and embellishments. Here is a good one:
