How Do You Create A Simple Scrapbook Layout?
Scrapbooking is an art. There is no right or wrong way to create scrapbook page layouts. Creativity is the key. If you are a beginner then you are probably looking for a way to craft simple scrapbook layouts that are easy to make yet appealing to the eye. There are a few steps you can follow in order to achieve this task. Take a sheet of cardstock base and create a background by using patterned paper, stamps, sand paper or any other method. The background of your pages should have some texture and/or dimension. Stamps make a wonderful background. Random stamp your cardstock with one or more images and you are ready to go. Another method is to sand your paper to create a distressed, weathered look. After you have your background then you are ready to cut out photo mats and place your photos and embellishments. Use your paper trimmer to cut square mats. You can also tear the paper to coordinate with your distressed theme. Create a balanced page by placing your items equally on each side.
