I'm new
to scrapbooking, how do I start?
To start off, we suggest purchasing
an acid-free, archival quality scrapbooking album and acid-free adhesive. Most scrapbookers
invest in a good trimmer at some point. Purchase some
decorative supplies. We suggest limiting yourself to a few sheets of coloured
cardstock at first.
Organise your
photos. A lot of people start with their most recent photos first and work
backwards. Take out your last couple of photos packets and sort them
chronologically into events (eg birthday, day at the park, Gold Coast holiday
etc). It is not necessary to scrap every single photo you have taken (although
some people like to) so choose the best photos and discard the rest. Sort your
photos further into groups of 4-6 (per scrapbook page). If you have lots of
photos of the one event, for example an around the world trip, you may like to
do a themed album.
What is
acid? Acid is an extremely harmful product and can cause photos and
other material to deteriorate, become brittle and eventually crumble. Acid
material will slowly burn and yellow your photos.
What is
acid free? Products that are Acid-free have a PH level of 7.0 of
higher. By having products in your albums that are acid free will lengthen the
life of your albums. Crafty Devils's paper is all acid free.
What is
Journaling? Journaling is documenting about ones' photos and events
relating to the photos By doing so you have a record of events for generations
to enjoy and reminisce. Journaling can be either hand written, computerised,
stenciled, stickered on and much more, it is up to you. Hidden journals are a
great way of recording information without taking over ones' photos and page
display. Alternatively the Flip Out Adhesive Strip which we sell allows you to
add journaling to your page without taking over your photos.
What is
Lignin Free? Lignin is a naturally occurring substance that exists
in wood pulp therefore paper. Over time the lignin causes photos to become
brown, old newspapers are an example of this. Lignin-Free just means the lignin
has been removed during the manufacturing process. All paper from Scrapbook Mega
Store is acid and lignin free.
What does
the term Photo-Safe mean?
A term that implies a product will not
damage or accelerate the aging process of photos. Look for this when purchasing
products and albums. All albums and accessories are photo safe at Crafty Devils.
What is
Scrapbooking? Scrapbooking is the organising of photographs and
memorabilia of ones' life into creatively designed albums.
Why
should I scrapbook? Taking pictures and putting them in photo albums
has been a tradition in many families ever since the camera was invented! The
hobby that is now known as scrapbooking has taken that tradition, improved on
it, and become a wildly popular pastime for both genders and all age groups.
More
specifically, scrapbooking allows you to place your precious photographs in
albums that are safe, and use them in ways that tell interesting stories about
the lives of your family members. No longer will your photo albums be page after
page of pictures without names and important details. With proper scrapbooking
methods, your memories will be remembered for generations to come in an album
that is fun, interesting, and enjoyable to view!
In addition to
the reasons above, scrapbooking is a pleasurable hobby with a dual purpose! Not
only does it provide enjoyment for the scrapbooker, but also for the entire
family as they see their memories come alive again in scrapbook form!
Scrapbooking done
correctly, will also keep photographs from deteriorating at the usual rate.
