This work is filled with detailed photographic instructions on how
to create some truly amazing items from cardboard.
Scrapbooking has proved to be one of the most popular hobbies in
recent years and the interest shows no signs of abating. Filled
with useful tips and alternative suggestions, Baby and toddler
scrapbooking contains 130 photographed sample pages - with
informative text on how they were put together - that will inspire
you to haul out your photographs and start working right away. The
authors' decoupage background serves them well, as they include
handy tips on painting, cutting and 'scrapoupage' - a technique
they developed adapting decoupage for scrapbooking. As they've
included a variety of styles, there's something for everyone, from
beginners to advanced scrappers.
Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.
Award-winning graphic designer and author Luke Herriott invites you to create uniquely idiosyncratic messages or decorate your stuff with these fun alphabets.
Everyone loves the cool graphic look of the classic ransom note, and letters cut from newspapers make any message a little edgy yet playful. The Ransom Note Sticker Book makes it easy to spell out anything you like and capture that unique look.
Thousands of stickers—A-to-Z, plus accents, numerals, and punctuation—in a host of fonts and typefaces are ready for your messages. You can use them to add color to your journals, you can name your stuff, or you can give a Valentine’s Day card a mysterious anonymous touch. . . .
Stationery, wrapping paper, and collages will all benefit from these alphabets, and they make the perfect gift for the crafter, journal-keeper, or scrapbooker.
Featuring a wide variety of techniques, from folding and punching
to stitching and inking, the title contains all the information you

ideas. Each technique is explained with clear step-by-step
photographs and instructions, followed by a gallery of cards using
that technique. Further information and a host of practical hints
and tips come in the form of extended captions with every card
individually photographed. From detailed cards that are artworks in
their own right, to quick and simple creations to make in a moment,
this title is a most useful hands-on resource for all those paper
addicts out there. Handmade cards are suitable for every imaginable
occasion and bring much joy to both the card-maker and the
receiver. This inspiring book will help you create to your heart's
content. Techniques include: punching, stamping, quilling, textiles
and haberdashery, alcohol inking, glass painting, embellishments:

The pages of The Confession Album contain 100 questions. Your part
is collecting the answers - whether from a loved one, or yourself -
in the course of an evening, or over a lifetime. If you're
answering for yourself, The Confession Album offers an opportunity
to gain and share the solace of self-expression; a way to relay
knowledge or impart wisdom; store a little data about what matters
in the old-fashioned way, by putting pen to paper. If you're
collecting someone else's answers - whether together in person or
by inviting them to respond alone and share with you later - The
Confession Album is above all an opportunity to bond. To lend your
ears and give your love. The Confession Album might be used to mark
a birthday or anniversary. As an activity to anchor a family trip
or weekend with friends. At the very least, it beats a Greeting
Card or social media quiz. At best, it creates a small but
thoughtful legacy - recording thought, and hard-won wisdom, to
advise and inspire. For Aspiring Writers, The Confession Album
removes one more barrier to putting pen to paper. The Confession
Album is designed to encourage you to make a start, to help writers
find and refine their voice on the page.
