Introduction to Scrapbooking
Hi, I’m Shelly Cordsen with expertvillage.com and we’re going to enter the world of scrapbooking which is a giant world and we’re going to narrow it down and make it great for a beginner and make it real simple. Your normal scrapbooking you always think it’s got to be a 12x12 format like this says and you got to be creative and fancy and you got to have a lot of tools. Well I’m going to show you where you really don’t need to begin with this idea. We’re going to start with a 6x6, very small, one picture maybe two on a page. Make every page simple, see we have no more than two colors here, you don’t have to be real creative to do this. These make wonderful gift sizes, great brag books, as a matter of fact this is my grandma brag book and I carry it with me in my purse, when I go on vacation I’ve got all my grandbabies right here. What’s wonderful is I’m going to show you how to make 10 pages in a 6x6 format out of three pieces of paper. Stay on board because toward the end I’m also going to show how just pictures alone can become your own design by just cutting them and sticking them on a piece of paper and they’re so much fun, I’m going to introduce you to a tool called the coluzzle, so stay tuned.
