Every person who lovingly assembles a scrapbook is constantly on the lookout for new ways to make it sparkle with originality and style. And with all the ideas here, ranging from decoupage to gold leafing to watercoloring, every page of your book will be better than ever before! Each technique includes both primary designs for decorating an entire page and secondary patterns (including many borders) that quickly jazz up any layout. Try incorporating antique photos or vintage postcards, using decorative-edge scissors, covering paper with patterned fabric, sponging a background, or drawing a border with a marker. Fabulous sample pages will provide endless inspiration!
