Include Collages in Your Scrapbook
Collages are congregations of
photographs or news clippings. These items can be placed in any
order or pattern. Collages can have a theme such as a single
individual or an entire family group combined.
Collages create great funky scrapbook pages. This method is
especially useful for surprise scrapbooks meant to overwhelm the
reader either with all of their accomplishments or all those that
care for them.
In addition to photographs and news clippings, collages can also
contain blocks of text or embellishment. These additions can be used
to increase the busyness and overwhelming nature of the collage or
reduce the effect slightly by distracting the focus away from the
collage.
To reduce shifting of the photographs as you select an appropriate
collage design, place temporary tape on each photograph or newspaper
clipping. Once the display is set, start permanently attaching the
collage to the background.
