WATER
by Melodee Langworthy
Printing your photographs on transparencies can give new depth to your layouts, as Melodee Langworthy describes in her article, “See-Through Scrapbooking.” For this scrapbook page, Melodee wanted to convey the mesmerizing feel of the water, so she printed the picture of her son, Drew, on a transparency. Learn about how Melodee uses transparencies in this issue.

My Life at 26
Janelle Smith engages the senses in her interactive book-in-a-box, inspired by her grandmother’s sewing room treasures. Janelle encourages readers to experiment freely with tactile details in their work. Consider Janelle’s use of perfume drops in a bottle, a book of mythology, images printed on wood, and even several envelopes to catch any items that may fall off, inviting viewers to not only see, but to feel. |
