Cropping For Scrapbooks
Eyelets For Scrapbooks
by Sarah McKenna
Here is a pair of books full of stunning layouts to get you cropping and eyeleting your
scrapbook pages. In true Search Press tradition, first you get to grips with the nature
of the beast - all about the materials and how to use them - and then it is on with the
primer and projects. Learn how to cut your photos up and make them look more interesting
on the page, and use those eyelets in a more creative and interesting manner to accent
your themes and make things like brag books.
I like the colorful, let's-get-started approach in here, with the bright materials all
laid out on the large format page like candies in a shop. There are no drawings here to
illustrate what needs to be done, just lots of large photos which I think is better for
this sort of work. A lot of the projects can be done quite quickly as long as you have
the basics - nothing too hard to obtain in either of these books - and they are just long
enough. I could think of more ways to crop my photos or use eyelets, but these books
got me thinking in ways that sparked my imagination to think of more. User friendly and
inexpensive (£6.99/$13.95) they are ideal for slipping into your crafting stash
along with your cardstock and photos.
