Photo Album Scrapbook Tips
Photo Album Scrapbook Tips: Scrapbooking Tips And Tricks For Photos And Images

When you're incorporating pictures of any kind into your scrap book, why not set them off with an unusual finish? This could be an original idea for a border or frame -- or an arrangement of several items on the page to add a little drama. Here are a couple of tips that might do well for a children's album -- perhaps a keepsake baby scrapbook, or just a page for a boy or girl.

Adding Dimension To Your Photos

One good way to add dimension to images is to use double stick foam squares. These are pieces of double stick foam tape that literally allow items to pop out at your reader adding realism to items. This trick is especially useful in children's art and educational scrapbooks.

Simply cut the foam tape into whatever shape and size you want. Then, attach to shape onto your scrapbook page. These 3D foam squares are available from most craft suppliers.

Benefits for Craft Businesses
Online Benefits for Craft Businesses


The internet has an endless number of benefits for craftspeople, not just as a medium for marketing or selling the end product but for each step that leads to sales. The fact that you are reading this shows that you already utilise the web for information but perhaps you have not yet considered some of the following points presented to aid your craft business.

The ideas provided in this article have come from interviews with craftspeople, conducted for AussieCrafts.com, in the interest of sharing information with our peers. When boiled down to its bare essentials this is the true essence of the internet but it sometimes gets lost in all of the marketing and sales. The interviews spawned a host of ways in which the internet assists the crafters, both in their craft business and creatively, and provided much insight into untangling the web.

Inspiration

When asked about the sources they use for inspiration most craftspeople have said that the internet is a much used research tool. This is particularly useful with commission pieces, where a client gives a basic idea and there is a need to familiarise yourself with the subject. Browsing websites is also great for when you want to start a new piece but are not quite sure where to begin.

The Ceramic practice

Wit and Wonder: the ceramic practice of Bernard Sahm


'despite a seeming confusion regarding a prime direction for mankind other than self-extermination, there exists an unbounded curiosity which is manifest in a probing and questioning of the all and everything. With this can come new visions of what he is and what he might be, and thus man can understand himself and be in harmony with his total environment.   Bernard Sahm1

Artist - Bernard Sahm Bernard Sahm's ceramic practice embraces 55 years of great change in Australian society and in the Australian art environment. A retrospective exhibition of this significant ceramic artist, has both a personal and a social dimension. We observe his practice find its direction, as he engages with the social issues around him and currently with his surrounding environment. He leads us through these complex and contentious decades of our history with wit and wonder. The words 'Wit and Wonder' were chosen as the title of Sahm's retrospective for their ambiguity hinting at his ironic observation and intelligent comment, and his open minded curiosity and thoughtful contemplation of the world he lives within.

Sahm's essential curiosity and practical individualism was apparent from the beginning in his search for a career direction from 1949-54. His search was unconventional but through it he amassed a breadth of skills and knowledge that has underpinned his lifelong enthusiasm for the mechanics of construction and for self- expression as a potter, ceramic sculptor, teacher and Head of Ceramics, Sydney College of the Arts.
