Beginner Scrapbooking Embellishments
Beginner Scrapbooking Embellishments covers just the tip of the ice-berg in the world of scrapbooking embellishments. This will cover what should be the easiest of embellishing for the beginning scrapbooker. I will cover the different kinds of material the scrapbooker can use on his or her pages along with examples of what that might look like. Embellishments are the different items one may add to his or her page for a theme. The different kinds of embellishments can be divided into about five groups, being textiles, organics, metallics, paper, and baubles. All these require different skill sets and because of this, the subject matter here will be handled in graded steps of difficulty. Covered under this tier will be embellishments for the beginner such as scrapbooking stickers, tags, die-cuts,
scrapbooking paper punches,
vellum and transparencies,
wire,
ribbons and fiber,
pre-made accents
microbeads,
watch crystals,
flowers (organics),
metal accents,
hinges,
conchos,
buttons,
brads,
eyelets,
clear accents,
scrapbook rub-ons,
sheet protectors
and
page pockets.
Why is it important to understand the different embellishments, even at the beginner embellishments level? The more you understand what is out there and what your choices are, the more choices you and I have to create outstanding and meaningful pages. This is just the beginning in embellishments and many are satisfied just to work with these beginner scrapbooking embellishments. But if you wish to go further, there will be more advanced embellishment instruction coming in the future.
