For work, you need not only paper for scrapbooking. In creating a wedding book, you can not do without special tools. You will need figured hole punches, all kinds of stamps, art knife and other accessories.

Materials and tools

Beginners should know that for work they will definitely need:

  1. Basic materials. These include substrates made from sheets of beer cardboard, cardstock, pastel and parchment paper, scrapbooking paper.
  2. Decor. It all depends on the imagination and personal preferences of the author.

Wedding album design secrets

There are three standard sizes to choose from:

  • 30 * 30 - you can place several pictures on the pages, generously decorating each of them. Such an album is somewhat heavy, it is voluminous and impressive in size.
  • 25 * 25 - the "golden mean", the pages will fit either several small pictures, or one, but in a large format.
  • 20*20 is a compact book, but only one 10*15 photo will fit on the page. For lovers of miniatures, this size is optimal.

When choosing the appropriate format, it should be borne in mind that not only the size and number of pages affect the weight and volume of the album. Of considerable importance is the design method, the choice of materials and the amount of decor on the pages.

Choosing a design style

There is no separate style for wedding albums. Decoration can be done in any style, boldly experimenting, surprising and creating a romantic mood. In scrapbooking, there are many areas of decoration, with their own rules and principles.

Design styles

As creative practice shows, several styles are most popular for wedding themes.

Shabby chic

A wedding is not only fun festivities and a noisy feast. During the ceremony, we can observe the miracle of the birth of a new family. Shabby chic is a romantic and gentle scraping technique characterized by a pastel tint palette. Light green, pale blue, a shade of pink mist or spring lilac - all these colors are relevant for style. As for the decor, anything that evokes romantic associations will do. These are lace, satin ribbons, pictures, chipboards and cardboard cutouts on the theme of love.

Shabby chic album

Shabby chic is characterized by the use of fabric. Ideally decorate the pages with patches of chintz or cotton with floral ornament. Angels, hearts, glass or pearl beads - all this can fill with meaning and reveal the theme.

Retro or vintage

Styles similar to each other are often used to create a scrapbooking wedding album. A light touch of antiquity, romance and mystery are distinctive features styles.

Retro or vintage style is unthinkable without journaling. Memorable inscriptions, quotes or lines from poems "in the subject" will create an aura of romance and love, looking at the pages of the wedding album.

Wedding album in retro style

In order for the style with a touch of antiquity to look realistic, artistic techniques such as distress, craquelure or patina are used. Journaling can be printed separately on an old typewriter, the pages can be decorated with artificially aged letters, postcards, movie or theater tickets.

Vintage wedding album

Metal pendants in the form of a key and a lock, an intricate heart, and a watch will help emphasize the vintage style.

American style

American decorating traditions are most popular in scrap making. A bright color palette, simplicity of forms, a lot of decorations, but an obligatory composition. Chaotic and inconsistent decor tires the eye, so a sense of proportion is always important. For pictures, you can prepare separate inscriptions in order to revive the events of the wedding celebration in memory if necessary.

American style decorating lesson

The main thing is the emotionality of the design, which is created by gluing stamps, labels, programs, honeymoon tickets, etc. When creating a composition, you should always remember that the wedding shot comes first, and jewelry is just a bright addition to it.

  3. Separately, we will prepare ready-made lace napkins. Using figured hole punches, you can create an openwork with your own hands.
  4. Laying out the composition of the page. To do this, glue a blank napkin, a substrate on top of it, and a photograph on it. We decorate the edges with lace or satin ribbon, add cardboard cutouts and chipboards. From tulle we make a bow, flower or fan, sew it to the edge of the page. We add beads, place accents with a stamp, glitter or paints. Similarly, we make out all the pages of the album. Each page should be stitched on a typewriter, so the work has a neater and more complete look.
  5. We create a cover. We cut out two identical blanks and one for the middle-spine from thick cardboard. On a beautiful fabric, we lay out the blanks from the padding polyester for the cover, in the middle there is a middle, one centimeter indent from the spine. Gently wrap the fabric inside, glue. Scrapbooking paper is glued to the inside. We decorate the cover with fabric roses, beads, rhinestones, lace, cut-outs and voluminous appliqué.

Any solemn event ends sooner or later. However, the memory of him will live forever if you manage to capture all the pleasant moments on film. For example, one of the most memorable events is a wedding. During this bright celebration, it is customary to turn to the services professional photographers capable of capturing and shaping the bright moments of the birth of the future unit of society. To store the received photos, it is best to use wedding albums. About how you can make them with your own hands, we will tell further.

What can a wedding album be made of?

A wedding memory album can be made from any materials at hand that are stale in your closets and chests of drawers. For example, it is quite possible to make an album cover from soft wallpaper for painting, cardboard and decorative elements.

Another thing is that not all materials will be ideal (they will not sag and bend under the weight of the decor). That is why it is best to make a wedding album with your own hands using professional scrapbooking paper. For example, ScrapBerry´s, Webster´s, My Mind´s and other varieties of paper are suitable.

How can you decorate the finished album?

The following materials are best suited for decorating a wedding album:

  • lace;
  • satin ribbons;
  • decorative halves of beads on a sticky basis;
  • floss threads;
  • origami flowers;
  • plaster figurines;
  • beautiful figurines-stickers;
  • dried flowers;
  • artificial buds;
  • fabric flowers;
  • cuts of veil or tulle;
  • braid;
  • decorative butterflies, hearts, doves and other figurines.

What should be taken into account when making an album?

Making a wedding album is a long and painstaking process associated with certain norms and rules. For example, in order for your album to be harmonious and complete, you must follow a single color scheme. Also, do not overdo it with the number of decorative elements.

Firstly, they should not create a piling up effect, and secondly, there should not be too many of them on one sheet. Do not forget that the primary role in the album is played not by decorative elements, but by photographs.

In addition, when working with glue, carefully hide all corners and seams. This will help to give your product neatness and aesthetics. And of course, all the elements must be in the theme and combined with each other.

"Pre-flight" preparation for the creative process

Before making a wedding album, it is necessary not only to prepare the tools and decorative elements necessary for work, but also to create a kind of layout of the future product.

To do this, first carefully consider the sequence of motives used and try to create storyline. Lay out photos, pictures and decor in the form in which they will be attached to the album, etc.

What type of binding can be used?

When the preliminary layout of the future album is made, you can choose one of several binding options for the product. For example, during your work, you can use classic book binding (with stitching and gluing). You can also make holes in the album sheets with a hole punch and put it on a binder with large rings. It makes sense to think about the spring version. In a word, the choice is yours.

Wedding album: master class

So, at the first stage, you can make the simplest album in terms of complexity. For this you will need the following materials:

  • cardboard;
  • album sheets;
  • photo of the newlyweds;
  • white lace;
  • wedding decorations;
  • transparent white or cream bow;
  • scissors;
  • glue;
  • white embossed wallpaper for painting;
  • threads.

First, decide on the size of the product and its theme. For example, it could be a wedding wishlist within 37 cm in height and 31 cm in width. In such albums, as a rule, not only are there wedding photos but also have space for notes. It is here that each of those present at the solemn event guests can leave their wishes to the newlyweds. Next, take scissors, landscape sheets, cardboard and white wallpaper.

Take the appropriate measurements and cut out rectangles from them with the previously specified length and width (the number of blanks depends on how thick you plan to make the album). The main details for your commemorative album are ready.

Cut out pieces of paper

At the next stage, before making a wedding album with your own hands, attach wallpaper to one of the rectangles cut out from the album sheet, cut out another rectangle of a smaller format from them. Repeat this procedure with other sheets. As a result, there should be one rectangle of wallpaper for each landscape sheet.

Take landscape sheets and glue prepared rectangles from wallpaper to each of them. Then you need to take a piece of cardboard and insert it between two pages, glue it. It will turn out that between all the pages for the photo there will be a cardboard box hidden under two landscape sheets (on both sides). Let the parts dry.

Making your own album cover

Continuing to make a wedding scrapbook, we start working on the cover. To do this, we take the following materials:

  • two cardboard rectangles;
  • a large piece of wallpaper;
  • scissors;
  • glue.

Take the cardboard and lay it on top of the wrong side of the wallpaper. Next, cut out the wallpaper according to the cardboard format, taking into account a small margin for the tips of our future cover. You should get a large wallpaper cover with cardboard attached to it on both sides and a small vertical gap between them.

In the next step, take the cardboard and cut a thin long strip to cover the binding and glue it. Do the same with the previously attached two cardboard rectangles.

Carefully smooth the extra corners and glue on the inside. Let the cover dry and only then proceed with its design. Performing all the steps in sequence, very soon you will learn how to make your wedding albums using various materials and techniques.

Making an album cover

Cover design is a key moment in the entire process of making an album. Therefore, it is very important to do everything right here. To do this, first look at the front side of the cover, determine its central part. It is in it that you can put a photo of the newlyweds. In this case, the photograph can be either located along the entire perimeter of the upper part of the cover, or capture only half of it.

For example, you chose a photo of young people in full height. Glue it over the cover. In the next step, take a few stencil figures. For example, it can be hearts, wedding rings, doves or flowers. Stick stencils over the top, bottom or sides of the photo. If you do everything right, you will have a beautiful wedding album. Scrapbooking is a unique art that allows you to create exclusive products with your own hands.

Take the lace and carefully glue it on the bottom and top under the photo. Next, you should take a bow, sew it with threads, making a kind of accordion and stick it around the entire perimeter of the photo. On top or bottom of the photo, you can also glue a finished inscription in the spirit of “The first chapter of a love story” and the initials of the newlyweds.

At the same time, it is up to you to decide whether to design the second side of the album or not. For example, it can be a beautiful stencil of two hugging people, hearts, doves or flowers.

However, if you still decide to design the back of the album, remember that it should not visually prevail over the main front. About how wedding albums look inside, we will tell further.

Making the inside of the album

The next step is to decorate the inside of the album. To do this, carefully fold all the album sheets dried from glue and prepare decorative paraphernalia. On each of the sheets of paper, stick one even paper napkin. They can be purchased ready-made or made independently from small pieces of paper using a special hole punch that can create holes in curly arches (the result is lace).

On top of the lace, you can stick relief plaster figures, for example, in the form of angels. Can be decorated with openwork lace, made with thread and hook, half-beads on a sticky basis. In a word, we must not only prepare a place for a future photo, but also make an original background or frame for it. This is how wedding albums are made.

We connect the parts and carry out the binding

At the end of the work, we got a finished cover and sheets for photos. In order for our album to take on the real look of a book, it is necessary to connect all the details and complete the binding. What does that require? For this purpose, take threads and glue. Fold up the inside of the album. Take the threads and use a needle to sew all the prepared leaves. To do this, it is better to take them 2-3 pieces.

When all the leaves are stitched, take the glue, apply it to a small strip (it lies exactly in the middle of the cover) and glue it. After everything is dry, the cover will stick firmly to the inside of the album. Here is your wedding album. Scrapbooking is a technique in which you can create unique wedding accessories with your own hands. Such an album can be a wonderful gift or the first step towards your limitless creative career.

A wedding is the main holiday in the life of a man and a woman.
