Instructions for completing a Scrapbook Page
So you’ve done the fun part, you’ve chosen your
theme. You’ve searched and hunted for the perfect background paper to show
off your photos and memorabilia. You’ve pulled out die cuts and punches,
scrap paper solids and decorative edged scissors…. Now you can REALLY
start to play!
These tips are as a guide only. The real masterpiece is
what comes from you and your imagination. It’s the way you use your
knowledge of the subject to breathe life into the pages that you will be
able to show off for years to come!
TIPS:
·Center photos on a mat, a solid color of
cover stock paper that matches one of the primary colors in your border.
·Glue the mat to your background page.
·Cut out the decorative emblems and wording
from old greeting cards and glue them on the page, overlap a corner of the
photo for a layered effect.
·Cut small triangles, 1 ½” x 1 ½” x 2
¼”; glue triangles and the corners of your photo.
·Use the circle cutter to create
medallion-like individual photos. Place the circle on a gold circle or heart
background. Glue or draw a chain link to give the appearance of a locket
showing off your picture.
·Embellish your page by precise cuts of
Royal Lace doilies. Cut circle designs out of the Medallion doilies or use
the scalloped edges to mat a circle photo.
·Page toppers give a friend an easy hint
