(d) Pam enjoys creating embellishments for her memory projects. She made her title by typing “splash” in a Word document and covering the letters with clear acrylic squares. She also crafted happy fish from retro clip art printed onto white shrink plastic. sources Acrylic squares, Creative Imaginations, creativeimaginations.us.

PAMELA's TOP TIPS
Follow your heart when scrapbooking. You know what colors and designs excite you. Your art is all about you, not what looks good in the industry magazines.
Create unique elements by scanning or photographing things you own and love. Alter them by coloring the images with pencils or chalks.
Junk jewelry can be bought at yard sales for next to nothing. Recycle into wonderful embellishments.
