Scrap Maps
Posted by craftyperson on May 13, 2009
Scrap maps are nothing more than templates you can follow to create beautiful scrapbook pages. The real beauty of scrap maps, however, is that they can be tailored to every level of scrapbooker, from beginner to master.
A scrap map is helpful to use when laying out a page.. “Where do I start?” is the question asked most frequently by beginning scrappers. A scrap map answers that question. With its detailed sketch of exactly where to place photos, journaling, and accents, a scrap map takes the mystery out of layout.
But don’t let the simplicity of a scrap map fool you — they’re not just for beginners. The same easy-to-follow sketch can spark a wealth of creativity giving new insights and ideas for placement and product uses.
- In the February Page, the layout has been closely followed with the exception of the photo being larger and the added vertical paper strips.
- In the Love Page the layout was reversed, moving the title to the left and the accent to the right of the photo.
- In the Girlz Page the title has been moved under the photo.
