"Veggie
Leather is simple to use, but you will
need a few tools such as an embossing heat gun, a
die cut machine for cutting shapes, and strong
adhesives. Simply heat for several seconds, and
press the textured item into the surface. Try
stamps, coarse sandpaper, balled aluminum foil,
textured fabrics, and more. And, Veggie Leather is
foolproof. If you make a mistake or dislike your
results, reheat the surface and try again." |
SCRAPBOOKS: An American
History, a book by Jessica Helfand, combines
pictures, words, and a wealth of personal ephemera
that
scrapbook makers preserve on the pages of their
books for a moment, a day, or a lifetime. This lavishly
illustrated book is the first to focus attention on
the history of American scrapbooks—their origins,
their makers, their diverse forms, the reasons for
their popularity, and their place in American
cultural life. Published by Yale University Press/A Winterhouse Edition. |
Grab your video cameras and
let’s see what you’ve got! The topic is

scrappers are a snore? If you’re willing to laugh at
yourself, we want you to participate. It’s your
shtick, go out into the world and document the silly
side of scrapbooking.
