What We Want

1. Projects to include in our popular Inspiration Gallery column, including: 

  • single page scrapbook pages

  • pocket scrapbook pages (ie. Project Life)
  • cards
  • other paper craft projects

Themes for this issue include:

  • poolside fun
  • camping
  • Canada Day or 4th of July celebrations
  • wedding

Here’s what catches our eye at Scrapbook & Cards Today:

  • well-balanced double page layouts
  • multi-photo single page layouts

  • great design
  • superb execution
  • clever uses of product
  • fresh approaches
  • overall creativity

2. Projects to include in our Sketch Savvy column

Scrapbook & Cards Today’s sketches are always inspiring and this one is no exception.  Download the sketch at https://scrapbookandcards.com/images/SCTSU17_online_call.jpg, use it to create a scrapbook page and then submit it to us for possible publication. We encourage you to be creative with this sketch. Play with embellishments, mix up patterned papers, flip it, or copy the design exactly — it's simply a blueprint to get your ideas flowing! This is for our summer issue, so we ask that you keep seasonality in mind (as outlined in the themes above) when creating.
