Scrapbooking Flowers and Other Ideas for Scrapbooks
Like all art plans, there are no hard and fast rules for making a scrapbook (that’s the great thing about making a scrapbook!). However, if you’re a total newbie, being mindful of some general rules of thumb is handy:-
Consider the subject of your scrapbooking project. The theme should prescribe the presentation and style of the scrapbook. For Instance, if you are creating a scrapbook to remember your the birth of a child or marriage ceremony, then you may select papers, embellishments and colours that create one cohesive theme around that topic.
OK, now a style has been chosen, think about the materials you wish to utilise. For example, you may wish to use scrapbooking flowers in your scrapbooking projects.
A neat trick to determining the topic of the page is to name it. Use stickers or die cut letters to write your title, or even print it out directly from your computer.
If you are composing a small note on the page, scribble it out on some scrap paper beforehand to perfect the wording.
There’s no strict convention regarding the number of photographs to place on any one page, but they should have some type of link to your theme. Choose a variety of photographs that you can apply as you design the page.
The main thing is you have fun during the time your spend producing your scrapbook. Making a scrapbook is a past-time that many people enjoy and you will find there’s a wonderful internet community happy to share their tips and help you in your scrapbooking efforts.
