Scrapbooks
7:07 AM
Although scraps that you buy from stores are always prettier than the one you really scavenge for, we feel that the whole fun bit about scrap booking is really just finding bits and pieces of paper/stickers in your house and pasting them.I find my materials from my sticker book which is like close to 10 years old! As well as magazines, news papers, pens, coloured paper, scrapbooking gifts from friends, markers, pens, scissors, etc. Basically, with all these, you can start scrap booking too. I like to decorate and personalize notebooks for myself, as well as for my friends (as a gift!), mostly for friends. I feel that notebooks are more meaningful because when you write something inside, it is also another way of scrapbooking to me. And more importantly, it is a scrapbook. Also, notebooks are very useful unlike cards. I just grabbed the 2 nearest scrapbooks i have within sight and here they are: 
This is my first notebook i made in p6 (old, i know), and also the notebook my cousin taught me how to scrapbook with. Back then we used to have this autograph craze, and inside are the contacts, likes, dislikes and messages of my prischool friends. Everytime i open this book up to read, it really makes me laugh at our grammar mistakes, our innocent minds and stuff. This book really means alot to me, it's almost as if my pri school days were recorded down inside.
You can see Rihanna having her swag on, she's there because I used to love Rihanna, but now i dont. My cousin sponsored me stickers then. I stuck the bear there a year later though, just to match the heart to form a diagonal line. And the rest was done with coloured paper.
This is the notebook i used for biology last year :)
It was initially meant to be my diary, but after 2 days i gave up on
documenting my life and so i decided to document my notes instead...
To me, the most fun part about scrapbooking is just ransacking my box-of-possible-scraps and choosing the few materials to stick it down. Also, shifting them around, trying out different compositions and being innovative is what makes scrapbooking so special. Anyone can scrapbook, you don't have to be rich to buy the mad-expensive materials, just coloured paper from popular, magazines, and you're good to go. Anyone can scrapbook, why don't you give it a try? Labels: art works |
