Hint 6

Hint 6 -

If you find that something is just not right in a layout, or you want your photos to pop out, then back them in a different colour!
When you layer your photos having a few of the photos mounted on a different shade of paper (I like to make thin boarders, it makes it look so neat) Doing this makes those photos pop out and they no longer blend together.
You will notice the main photos that are mounted tend to draw attention to the eye first, then travel around the rest of the layout.

Hint 5

Hint 5 -

Add journaling to your layouts, even if it is just a date and time.

You really want to let people know when and what happened.

Scrapbooking is a story to tell your great great grandchildren!

How will they know who is in the picture, or when it was....

YOU wont remember forever!

Hint 4

♥ ♥ Hint 4 -
When wanting to do that tearing look on your page, try and use a ruler or a tearing tool to keep that "tear" under control! It stops the tear from getting askew or to big. Unless a big messy tear is what you are after :p
(ive seen how frustrated ppl can get trying to get a straight tear....) ♥ ♥

Hint 3

♥ ♥ Hint 3 - When stuck for ideas, one way to get your juices flowing is by finding and using a sketch. Sketches are a outline of what your next layout COULD look like.
Giving you ideas where embelies, photos and journaling COULD go. Use these sketches to start you off
cause I can guarantee you will find yourself loosing the sketch and letting your own imagination take over. May not be with the first sketch but you only need one to get you in the mood!! ♥ ♥

check out this site I use for some fab sketches.

I am going to have soooo much fun, and catch up on sooo much scrapbooking!

Less time to go out, more time at home. = less money I spend which equals to less struggling at the end of the month (damn getting paid once a month)

Tomorrow I am going to head to playgroup, and come home and organize my scrapbooking room.. (as well as vacuum, mop, tidy bla bla bla Oh and my mile walk courtesy from the lounge room of Netta lmao)
