Scapbook Pages with Attached Charms

Design by Leslie Lightfoot

Small brads aren't large enough to actually hold the rubber charms used here, but Leslie faked the look with a bit of strong adhesive.

Tips

Pull it together. Repeat design elements such as color, shape, and texture for a well-rounded look. Leslie repeated the bright colors, floral designs, and fabric texture found in her main photo.

Don't overdo it. Sometimes less is more; limiting the number of charms and grouping them in clusters prevents them from taking over the page design.
