Your vacation may be over but your memories dont have to be, bring your pictures to life with a few scrapbooking techniques. - A great way to make a big splash is with specialized background papers.
- Make a mosaic background using the map from the theme park (figure A).
- To create the look and feel of the ocean, consider using a crimping tool and try tearing and layering different shades of blue paper (figure B).
- Swirl white paint on blue paper to look like waves.
- For a 3-D look, use a liquid appliqué pen with a heat gun.
- To help your photos pop, try "punching" out your subject.
- Add a layer of vellum to showcase just your family.
- Think about making a pocket page to store a photo CD and other trip treasures (figure C).
- With a little creativity your memories can last a lifetime.
Web Extras - Think of a theme album as a story and how to best present it. With a theme, your album is smaller and more manageable.
- When scrapbooking, think paper and lots of it. You can layer, tear and fold it in fun and creative ways.
- Matte all photos to make them "pop" off the page.
- Make you layouts simple and classy. Try to use some "texture" on every page.
- When laying out your scrapbook pages, group things in threes so your eye moves across the pages.
- You can attach a journal on the top of your pocket page in the back. This journal could include final thoughts on the vacation.
- Take a panoramic photo and cut it up to look like an accordion.
