Themes, layouts and inspirations
Bookbinding is a useful skill as a scrapbooker, especially if you like to construct your own mini albums and brag books. Niko Silvester shows how to make a fold over pamphlet type book with a cover on the Handmade News blog. Click here to go to tutorial.
To celebrate their 19th year the Scrapbook and Cards Today blog is offering an amazing FREE die cut file. Designed by Paige Evans this open style cut file includes a large 3 layer cake with 3 words: Happy, Hooray and Birthday. You can use your electronic die cutting machine to cut them out, back them with pattern papers or cardstock and use them on your next birthday celebration scrapbook layout.
Brianna used it for her sweet baby birthday page adding lots of inking in bright colors behind the cake. She added photos on either side as well as festive accents like confetti and balloons too. For the title she backed part with pattern paper and added inking to the bottom of the other word.
