    Question Scrapbooking Virgin

    All the gear - no idea! yes that applies to me!

    So I've got the album, enough papers to cover the house..photos galore and can I start my wedding scrapbook - no!

    I've spent an hour moving stuff around. Can anyone recommend a good site that shows layouts - I think this would help a lot. Thanks x

    Here is a site that has some lovely Wedding themed layouts, just use the 'slide' 1 - 29.

    You might also like to try Pencil Lines

    Two Peas in a Bucket, the themed section has - Weddings

    Hope that helps,
    Chrissy. xx

    One thing I usually do is lay everything out and leave it overnight before I stick it all down. It's then easy to change if I hate it the next day, which I quite often do! lol

    So glad you posted about this. It never occurred to me to look for sketches for scrapbook pages. I have spend days in the past trying to get a decent layout!

    You could also use any ideas you have had for cards, but substitute the photo for the greeting or the stamped image :-)

    I've seen them in mags Budgie where there is a challenge for the card maker to use a certain layout, Kirsty Wiseman does a similar thing on every Wednesday night on Facebook. She picks a layout and a theme and everyone comes up with a creation. It's a great idea, haven't been brave enough to join in yet. These sites really help, I look at them like using a template. Thanks for the help everyone.
