Scrapbook Pages with Baker's Twine

Design by Christa Paustenbaugh

Focus on a special role and use journaling to explain how it affects your daily life, as Christa did on this page about being a military wife. Print your journaling on patterned paper and cut it into strips. Then group similar ideas on journaling blocks. Use a circle punch or another shaped punch to transform scrap paper into easy page accents. Layered buttons echo the circle motif and are held together by baker's twine.
