Technique: Using fabric stickers
Style: Clean and simple
Designer: Shauna Berglund-Immel
Love stickers? Want something new and fresh? You’re in luck! Fabric stickers are the latest look in scrapbooking—and we love how easy it is to journal with them.
“I love to use the ribbon fragment stickers as substitute words in my journaling,” says designer Shauna Berglund-Immel. “It’s a lot of fun to mix things up by computer journaling in cursive so the fragment stickers stand out.”
Shauna also used the travel quotation stickers to create a simple, stylish page border by matting her fabric sticker quotes on a piece of torn black glimmer paper. “It’s an easy and effective page border. You could make it any length or size you wanted—use one quote for a small accent, or place three quotes side by side for a horizontal border.”
“This layout would make a great first page in a vacation scrapbook or travel journal,” Shauna says. “The definitions and quotes really set the stage for this travel theme.”
