In this subject we are able to make different kids of artwork and also developed our talents and skills in the field of arts.One project that we have is the scrapbook making. A photo album just shows you the photos but a scrapbook tells the story. A scrapbook can contain photo, mementos, notes about the event and by the page's look and feel; it can depict a 'mood'.
What you need..
Materials Needed:
Paper - Acid and lining free card stock, paper, and vellum are some of the options.
Adhesive - You need some good adhesive or you will have pictures falling out of your scrapbook, Some of the commonly used adhesives include sticky dots, double sided tape, spray glue.
Cutting Equipment- A good craft scissor will be a good option to give a nice wavy effect to the pictures.Scrapbook - Embellishments
You will use embellishments to decorate your scrapbook page layouts, these come in different forms like wire, ribbons, stickers, stamps, brads etc another good option is to purchase a machine that will cut shapes and create your own embellishments.
Glue or Paste
SCRAPBOOK-PROCESS
by: Herman M. Dias
Once you have decided the theme of your scrapbook, you need to select a picture or pictures that will be the focal point of first page and then you can use the colors in the picture to determine the color scheme of the whole page.
Once the picture are on you can use some fancy wording and then decorate it with brads, ribbons, paper etc.
When you are doing your scrapbook, do not over do it, don't make it bulky with embellishments because you will need to place the sheet in a plastic sleeve.
An one last tip, when you by the paper, choose acid and lignin free products, using anything else will deteriorate your scrapbook over time.
One of the most important things to remember when creating scrapbook page layouts is not to overdo them, remember they will need to be placed into a thin plastic sleeve so attaching bulky embellishments simply won't work and will look unsightly in your scrapbook.
