    wedding scrapbook

    I've offered to do a scrapbook for SIL's wedding. She was disappointed with her photos so I need to do a good job. My question is should I just use a single collection of papers or pick papers to enhance each photo. your opinions would be gratefully received.

    I would keep the colours to the ones in the wedding and may scan some of the photos and put them into black and white or sepia and this sometimes helps to improve bad pictures. So if you find a collection that suits the colours then use one, If not then keep a theme in the papers you choose,
    Also the blalck and white photos would keep longer than colour ones.
    hope this gives you some ideas

    Thanks that's a good idea about turning photos black and white.

    I made a small album for a freinds wedding. I printed up the photos in black and white and then made the album, papers and embellishments blck and white too. You could do the same, but add a splash colour, perhaps the theme colour the bride picked. was reallu happy with the result and used all different makes of paper and embellishments. Good luck and hope the bride is more happy once you have done your magic x

    I did an album and used black and white papers and used splashes of colour and was very pleased with the result.

    I would match papers to the colours of the wedding, and just use the one range of papers. I would add interest with matching cardstock, ribbons embellishments etc. x
