A Guide to Scrapbooking Your Wedding

Like all artwork plans, there aren’t any fixed principles for making a scrapbook (that’s the beauty of making a scrapbook!). Nonetheless, if you are just starting out, being aware of a few general rules of thumb is useful:-

Think about the theme of your scrapbooking project. The theme should prescribe the style and presentation of the scrapbook. For example, if you are producing a scrapbook to celebrate a wedding ceremony or a child being born, then you should choose embellishments, papers and colours that create one fused style around that subject.

OK, now a style has been picked out, consider the materials you wish to apply. For example, you may wish to use scrapbooking ribbons and bows in the scrapbook.

A neat trick to determining the focus of your page is to name it. Employ stickers or die cut letters to write your title, or just print it out directly from your computer.

If you are composing a small journal on the page, write it out on notepaper first to perfect the wording.

There’s no fixed rule regarding the number of photos to use on any given page, but they should have some kind of relation to your subject. Select a smorgasbord of pictures that you can apply as you layout the page.

The most important aspect is you enjoy the process of making your scrapbook. Making a scrapbook is a pasttime that many individuals love doing and you will find there’s a huge online community willing to share their tips and aid you in your scrapbooking endeavours.
