Scrapbooking Made Easy - Progressive Scrapbooking

Do you love to scrapbook?

Do you want to start scrapbooking and do not know where to start?

Well, here is a solution for you,

Progressive Pages!

Start with a 6” x 6” page (Top Picture) highlighting simple, featuring only one picture, one stamp set, simple embellishments and layering.

NOTE: This size is great for brag books.

If you want to add a title or a date, turn the page into an 8-1/2” x 11” page. Take the original page and place it on 8-1/2” x 11” cardstock (Middle Picture). Add a few accents, such as a title and stamped images onto the background.

Now for those who prefer to scrapbook 12” x 12” pages, repeat this process and place your 8-1/2” x 11” page onto a 12” x 12” piece of cardstock (See Below). Add more photos, embellishments or journaling. Creating great pages are as simple as 1 - 2 - 3.

Supplies Used:

Stamps: Scriptybet T-2722, Petal Pack T-2638, Needed Numbers T-2649, Minisampler T-2548
Cardstock: DCWV Paper, Hip Hop™ Paper Pak

Ink: Versamagic™ Pretty Petunia, Brillance Dew Drop Lavender

Accessories: Hemp Twine, Eyelets
