I made my first ever scrapbook page!

[Queenie]

It's not as good as the ones you guys make as I'm stuck with scissors and an edge trimmer, that's about it! No cutters or anything, can't afford them and they're hard to come by here, scrapbooking isn't that big in the UK as yet.

So... what do y'all think?

Great job, especially for your first attempt. Maybe you could look into buying some scrapping supplies online or on Ebay?? Keep up the good work!....P

Good job!

I think the hardest thing for me getting started was the fear of the "empty page". Once you've done one, you're good to go!

Great job on your first page! I think sometimes the simple pages are the best ones.

Your first page is wonderful!
Enjoy! And welcome to the wonderful addiction we call scrapping!

I think it is great. I have used all kinds of unconventional tools for my scrapbooking - cookie cutters to make die cuts, different sized cans of food to draw Mickey ears (I guess in the UK they would be tins of food), anything that would make the shape I wanted. I have bought tools from ebay also. As long as they work, I don't care that they are "pre-loved".

Thanks for the positives guys. When I first started making it it looked awful so I ripped everything off the backing and started again with brighter colours and it worked out much better. Hoping to do the next page (Seaworld) tonight while I watch TV. Got a plan in my head, just gotta transfer it to paper.
