 BITS & PIECES
Get creative and put together your own wedding photo-collage using scraps of papers, loose buttons and pieces of leftover fabric. We got two of the best samples here!
Spring/Summer: Elaine from Scrapbook Design University assembled a bright and cheery scrapbook page using colourful buttons, fabric flowers and satin ribbons. She also overlaid scraps of paper and buttons on top of the petals for a more three-dimensional effect, so everything pops up to life!
 Autumn/Winter: Kelly from Made With Love designed an elegant scrapbook page with a lush garden appeal. Using muted tones, flower-printed paper and sleek “wooden” lettering, she also punctuated the pages with a wave of paper flowers and lovely phrases for a touch of softness and romance.
