EXCELLENT SCRAPBOOKING ADDRESSES

Internet abounds with good addresses which are proving to be true gold mines for Scrapbook-women looking for new or simply run out of inspiration.

But many interesting sites are in English ... what constitutes a handicap for many of us! Ah, if I had worked more at school!

So here are some sites ... in French ... or English and which will certainly be useful! This list is not complete : if you have any other "good addresses", send me a mail, they will be published on this page

How to design your pages

1 - Templates of all sizes!

Running out of ideas for your pages, you are not sure how to lay out your picture ... then no hesitation, go for a ride on PageMaps.com.

And this is not only theoretical! For each proposed "page map" is shown a picture of its practical realization . For those who do not always speak in terms of page!

Labels, half pages, 8.5 x11, round pages, cards, envelopes: everything you can find there!

In the same vein, do not leave without visiting ScrapMaps which also offers many sketches and templates for building your pages. Only downside: there are no concrete achievements to illustrate each of the proposed plans ... It's not too embarrassing!

 For your Titles and Journaling

2 - All quotations around the world!

It is an extraordinary site that collects proverbs, quotations and other reflections from the wisdom!You will find, besides the quote of the day, a search engine by topic. Ideal for your titles and journaling!

My favorite quote:

The waves are nothing when you see the ocean !

(Each word in the quotation refers you to related topics).

3 - Hundreds of headers!

A header is a catchy title placed on top of a page that announces the theme of the page.

 If you're stuck for inspiration for your titles, you will find everything that you lack in the "virtual training" of the Scrapbookerie.

The site is a "commercial" Canadian one full of literature and ideas.

4- 1001 free fonts!

Now when I want a special font, I think first 1001 free fontsprior to pick on other sites (Dafont, Urbanfonts ... see page Journaling.

Besides the impressive number of fonts, their classification is the most logical and most effective.

I love the police BADABOOM who made headlines so effective!

The embellishments

5 - The Digital Scrapbooking gold mine!

It is an English language site (unfortunately for someones...). But the richness of the contents catches up with without problem the relative difficulty of access.

This is the scrapbooking site of a real community that thinks, lives and sleeps scrapbooking. Everything is shared : ideas, freebies and achievements in groups containing 1 to 900 members. This shows the vitality of this "congregation" that shares on the Internet.

Firstly, the site distributes its free digital scrapbooking software (yes, of course, not with this type of software that work digiscrap-women... what ? some...?) but it is so good to start.

Then, their Download page gives you access to "reserve" ... the gold mine!Hundreds of Templates ie models pages, EMBELLISHMENTS as if it rained in, classified by themes ... Of course, it is directed dital Scrapbooking but we learn lots of things!

6 - A department store of scrapbooking.

We do not always think about but there is a considerable stock of embellishments and scrapbooking materials ... All at incredible rates, which depend on the auction-but remain in all cases very reasonable.

Do not expect, of course, find the latest fashion kit from Basic Grays or any new stickers seen on the internet shopping ... No, there would be rather classic ... though sometimes ..

Log on ebay, type scrapbooking and click search ... you are in a department store where misplaced worse alongside the best ... No seller to advise you, for you to see you there!

In the same vein, consider alsoPriceMinister where you can make good business

Very old postcards on the sitehttp://cartes-postales.delcampe.net.
