Scrapbook beginner: Help to find out some links for specimen layouts also?
I am planning to make a travel scrapbook of my recent tours.But I am not a person of art and craft. I really have no idea of scrapbooking tools. pls give me some idea of the basic things I need to get started. Probably I will not get enough time to carry out the hobby for a long period…I just want to make only this one scrapbook. So I need only basic things…not any expensive material or iteam or books etc to learn the craft.It will be a simple, extremely personal one.So far I have got the idea that I need these things first.1. An acid free scrapbook of 12×12(does this come with same papers or I have to buy tem seperately)
it already contains paper them hoew can I use my own choice of co- ordinating papers for pasting photos and writing the journal
2.Acid free, waterand fade proof archival pen
3. Acid and water free glue
4. paper cutter( a fancy one or a simle cutter will do?)
and obviously photos and IMAGINATION.
Pls guide me what else should I buy at this time
Well, you have a lot of the basics down. You will just need to find papers that match your travel book and embellishments. These you can buy in small quantities just for your particular scrapbook.
In most cases, scrapbooks do come with a white page inside the page protectors, but many change those out and use a cardstock page in various colors/patterns as the background and add pattern paper, photos, and embellishments to that.
Look around at various ideas online and in books, pull layouts that you like from those and copy them. It’ll make completing the scrapbook much easier for you. You can also purchase scrapbook kits that contain cardstock, patterned paper, and embellishments all in one pack that coordinate together, you basically just cut those all apart and put together on pages. I sell a very nice travel kit with all those pieces if you’re interested, just contact me if you’d like more information, I can show you the link in my catalog.
Happy Crafting!
