Scrapbooking
If you’ve struggled with embroidery or abandoned cross stitch, you’ll find stitching on paper a refreshing change and it’s a brilliant way to personalise your pages. When scrap artists started moving away from the “page” and onto alternative surfaces and objectives, they termed these creations “altered items”. Scrapbooking is a widely and increasingly practiced pastime in most developed countries. It’s only a week until the second ScrapBook Inspirations Ideas Book hits the shops, and we can’t wait for you to get your first peek inside! Scrapbooking is a method for preserving personal and family history in the form of a scrapbook.
Editor Shimelle Laine has gathered together stunning pages from some of the most talented scrapbookers around, as well as the hottest new products to add to your stash. Old scrapbooks tended to have photos mounted with photomounting corners and perhaps notations of who was in a photo or where and when it was taken. To learn the secrets of Laura’s layout and see more inspiring interactive pages, get your hands on the next Ideas Book! With the advent of affordable paper, precursors to modern scrapbooks became available to a wider array of people.
