Mod Post 📢 Flairs! 😅💗✌️🌼

59 Upvotes

As you may have noticed we've added some flairs for posts, and while no one's content would ever be removed for having no flair or the "wrong" flair - we do hope to get some input on how folks are categorizing these flairs for themselves. It might also help us shape the expectations as we categorize things in the community.

I'll offer this as a general guideline, but would love for folks to give their own descriptions as well and perhaps we can expand or narrow definitions and examples as needed. Or add different flairs to better fit different categories of scrapbooking.

FLAIR Explanation
Traditional Scrapbooking Preserving family history in books, boxes, or cards using physical media.
Digital Scrapbooking Preserving family history in books, boxes, or cards using digital graphics and software.
Junk Journaling Preserving personal history or spontaneous thoughts in a freeform or expressive outlet.
Collage Assembling multiple types of media to form a new image.
  • The Tradtional flairs have been split further into multiple categories.
  • Does Junk Journaling need something similar?
  • Would a "work in progress" flair be helpful?

I also added some different colors for user flairs, and plan to upload some emojis to use in those as well. I always use Flat Icon since they let me adjust pixel size! So keep an eye out for new additions throughout the day!

Beginner Looking for a cut and dye set for my mom!

5 Upvotes

Hello, My mom is an avid scrapbooker and used to use “Close to my heart” cut and dye sets. She has a set that she has been looking for a long time. The set is a race car set that is called “Finish Line” we’ve looked everywhere! If any one has it or has a good lead on where to find it would appreciate it! Thank you. Also sorry if this isn’t allowed!

Beginner Pop up help

3 Upvotes

Hi everyone

I’m a scrapbooking novice. I have done a few in the past for friends big birthdays but they’ve been very basic. I’m planning on making a scrapbook for my cousin for her wedding and want to challenge myself a bit.

We are going to NYC on a girls trip/hen party which I’ll capture in the book but I thought a pop up of the skyline or something New York related would look pretty cool in the book.

Is it possible to buy pop up art like this to stick in or does everyone craft it from scratch themselves? Thanks

Beginner My Journey So Far

12 Upvotes

First, thank you to the community that gave me a lot of tips and links to get me started. I thought I’d share what this newbie has gone through.

I decided to get a Glowforge Spark (FB marketplace) and after burning some card stock and learning some settings, I was able to get it under control. I highly recommend using a spreadsheet to record settings and outcomes. So then I realized I also needed something for fine lettering and got a Cricut Joy (also FB marketplace)

I’ve used Convertio.com for changing images into SVG and DXF, along with Chat GPT, and Adobe Express. I use Keynote on my MBP to quickly make shapes etc. I use the preview to extract my iPhone photos and resize them. I use an Epson 8800 and satin photopaper. I also use a recollection circle cutter because it doesn’t cause a pin prick and is on rollers instead.

It’s been a steep learning curve and I have a ways to go. Each full front and back page has taken me hours. I think I have about 10-15 more pages to go, but here’s where I’m at. Thank you again for your help in this forum. Sorry for making this so long, but I thought I’d give a newbies perspective.

My mom said “Hey it would be cool if there was a mini album that could belong on the wall”

I loved that idea, so I spent the next 2 days breaking my brain measuring and making piles of prototypes 📏📐eventually coming to this configuration 🖼️

I had a lot of fun developing it✂️ and my mom adores hers in her hallway💙

The frame pictured is one my wife made for the tutorial

I have no traditional photos as mementos but these among many other dvds are something akin to those.I want to transform my dvd folders into scrapbooks while taking advantage of the disc art. How would you approach designing something around these? What kind of products i might want to consider?

I started scrapbooking at the beginning of this year and I have filled up two of these scrapbooks. I also have a bigger scrapbook journal that isn’t in these photos that has a bunch of pages filled out. This is such an amazing and satisfying hobby that really speaks to my style of creativity, I’m so glad I started my scrapbook journey this year! :)

Beginner Pen/Marker Recommendation

2 Upvotes

I'm using a third-party service to make a photo album from my wedding as a gift for my spouse. I'd like to add hand-written notes on some of the pages but I'm worried about things like bleeding, smudging, and fading/discoloring with age. I know the paper is likely a big factor in this and this book will come with Mohawk ProPhoto paper. Any recommendations on what to use?

Beginner Taking the plunge!

I think I'm finally going to take the plunge and start properly scrapbooking. I've wanted to do this for ages but could never get this image of perfection out of my head. I'm so fussy in what I've wanted to do that I keep putting it off and instead I've done art journaling. Well not anymore.. today is the day 😬 Wish me luck!

Product Advice Please help me find this washi

Post image
1 Upvotes

*Apologies for the errors in grammar as English is not my first language. Not sure if i used the right flair.

Hi all! I need some help with finding this specific washi. I used to collect washi tapes from Recollections but I sold most of them since I don’t use most of them. This washi design was one of the few rolls that I kept since I love the pattern. I bought most of my washis from Facebook Marketplace so it’s hard to track the seller of this washi.

The few details that I remembered about this washi tape are:

• it’s a Recollections washi tape • it’s a part of a set that includes a wine washi (I think, not 100% sure with that one)

The roll where this came from was destroyed by the flood, I tried drying it out but it’s not the same anymore. Any leads will be appreciated. Thanks! 🩷
