Instead of the store-bought, mass produced, manufactured, retailed, formatted, processed, and cookie cutter pages, give your scrapbook individual flavour?
Are you tired of all of the scrapbooking ideas looking so much alike? Does it make you feel like there is only one way to make scrapbooks and anything else is wrong? Is there a shortage of creative and individuality? Here is a way to create a one-of-a-kind scrapbook that is truly custom to you and your family.
One of the ways to enhance your scrapbooking pages is through the use of collage. These can be serious or funny and for any topic you can imagine.
You can get your materials from anywhere, but as always, the internet opens up loads of opportunity to locate items difficult to find in just magazines or newspapers.Here are just some of the fun ways you can use the collage.
