Creative Scrapbook Piecing with Marina du Plessis 2

Book excerpt: Creative Scrapbook Piecing 2 with Marina du Plessis follows on the success of her first book on the subject – Creative Scrapbook Piecing with Marina du Plessis – and the clamour for more from scrappers around the country. In this collection of layouts, Marina presents themes encompassing nostalgia, special memories, outright fun and an array of special occasions including a birthday, a Matric dance, a wedding, a christening and an unusual family gathering. The choice is yours; you can faithfully replicate the layouts in this book or you can select specific elements to create your own individual layouts – the choice is yours. Whatever your treasured moments are, capture them forever in this exciting craft. The main ingredients and tools for scrapbook piecing are simple: photographs, paper, ink and a pair of scissors! Each layout includes templates of the frames, letters, titles, tags, journaling and envelopes, as well as the templates for constructing the three-dimensional figurines. Instructions are simple to follow and are accompanied by full-colour photographs. No matter if you have been scrapping for years or you're a beginner, the projects will provide you with plenty of ideas and inspiration.
