Scrapbook glossary
Terms
Acid-free - Acid is used in paper manufacturing to break apart the wood fibers and the lignin that holds them together. If acid remains in the materials used for photo albums, the acid can react chemically with photographs and cause their deterioration. Acid-free products have a pH factor of 7.0 or above. It's imperative that all materials (glue, pens, paper, etc.) used in memory albums or scrapbooks be acid-free.
Acid migration - Acid migration is the transfer of acidity from one item to another through physical contact or acidic vapors. If a newspaper clipping is put into an album, the area it touches will eventually turn yellow or brown. A deacidification pH factor spray can be used on acidic papers, or they can be color photocopied onto acid-free papers. Archival quality -
"Archival quality" is a term used to indicate materials which have undergone laboratory analysis to determine that their acidic and buffered content is within safe levels.

Scrapbooks etc - design secret 2006
I had lent this book from a dear friend for a couple of weeks. Design secret is like a blue print for us to build our own designing skills.
Summary :-
Planning - every great scrapbook page starts with a plan for both its story and its structure.
“BEFORE YOU START YOUR LAYOUT THINK ABOUT THE STORY YOU WANT IT TO TELL. THEN KEEP THE STORY IN MIND AS YOU DESIGN “
1. Intention – before you make any design decisions, it helps to know what you want your page to say and to whom. It’s called designing with intention, and it’s the difference between telling a story and simply decorating card stock.
How?
- Who is your audience?
Example -My kids
-What sort of message and mood did you want to convey?
Example – I wanted to capture the playfulness of this day of blowing bubbles
- What design decisions did you make to help communicate your message and mood?
Example – to play up the playful nature of this page, I used energetic, bold shapes and colors. To further the bubble theme, I formatted my journaling text and accents to mimic the shape of a bubble wand. I also chose pattered paper that carried on this circle motif.
2. Composition – the most basic aspect of your layout design is how you arrange elements on the page. Where you place your photos, text and accents in relationship to one another can make a big difference in how effective they are in telling your story.
a. emphasis – before you do anything elase, pick your focal point – the first place you want the viewer to look to quickly get the point of your layout.
b. structure – a deliberate structure is the basic foundation of any page. Thinking of your page as a grid can help you envision that structure. – use a grid as a guide rather than a rigid boundary. You don’t have to stay inside the lines.
c. balance – there are many ways to create balance in your pages where no one element appears to be too heavy.
d. space – empty space can be as important an element in your page design as those things that take up space. White or empty space can make a dramatic impact on your layout.
e. bridging and grounding – once you have formulated the basic structure of your layout find ways to connect your elements.
f. movement – the way you arrange your page elements can help direct the viewers eye through the page.

Tugas baru
"Semua gambar anak-anak mak satu pun tak ada simpan dalam rumah ni. Gambar kahwin mak pun tak ada."
Sayu dah pilu Ida mendengarnya, semalam juga Ida bawak balik semua gambar yang dah kuning untuk dibuat scrapbook khas untuk ibu tercinta. Bukan mudah tugas ni, nak kena kumpul data dan cari balik gambar-gambar dia dari saudara-mara. Ingat nak kena tanya balik semua adik-beradik mak yang ada simpan gambar mak ni. Lepas tu nak kena cari scanner pulak, yang ada tu dah meletup agaknya.

Journaling tips
• Start with the basics—who, what, when, where, why and how. Even just
starting to write helps.
• Write about an easy topic, then move on to harder ones.
• Resist the impulse to try to write in your head. Put the words on paper or a computer screen and move them around.
• Try talking with a friend about what you want to write.
• Start with a really rough first draft. You can always improve your writing
once you've gotten it on paper.

You have so many diverse interests that it is often hard to pin you down to any one thing. People love your friendly attitude and carefree ways. You often brighten other people's days. But Fibers Beware - Sometimes people don't take you seriously because of your happy-go-lucky ways. Sometimes you find yourself feeling left out from decision making that could directly affect you.
