Description: In the end, our lives are scrapbooks -- bits and pieces of our past, lovingly stitched together in our memory into a dog-earred internal archive of who we are. Perhaps that explains the timeless appeal of real scrapbooks, those charming books where we paste important clippings, photos, and other things that tell a story of a family, however we define that. The Complete Idiot's Guide to Scrapbooking shows readers all they need to know to start a scrapbook they'll cherish forever. Readers get expert advice on getting the best materials for the least amount of money, tips on designing the perfect layouts, and insider information on the best border designs, illustrations, and textured backgrounds to use when creating a page. They also get storage tips and arrangement ideas for non-photo items like sports medals, pressed flowers, and report cards. With the easy steps and beautiful examples offered in The Complete Idiot's Guide to Scrapbooking, anyone will be able to create a beloved keepsake for the future.
