Scrapbooking Terminology – A Public Review

Oki doki, we are on a mission here! We get emails all the time asking questions which start with “this may be a really stupid question but…”

Then it’s followed by “what is a” or “what does it mean to”for scrapbooking!

Then it occurred to me that as a newbie to scrapbooking I was boggled many times myself. I had no clue in the early days what a crop, a swap, a crop-a-dile, a big shot, a punch, a die cut and all that was.  For all I knew these were innovative HAIR CUTS!!!! WOW! That was wrong of me wasn’t it.  Then comes others like  pop dots,  glossy accents, cracked glass, brushed velvet and copics.  Hmmmm….are those MAKE-UP TECHNIQUES:-P (She says with a little giggle under her belly).

So – instead of confusing matters by simply throwing together my own glossary and explanations – I thought I would let you ask the questions and get the public involved yet again.

Anyone who reads this can post a comment or a response to a comment, I emplore you to do so.  You will have a lot of fun.  I know you will.  And you will help others.

By asking the questions – you encourage answers and by answering questions you GIVE BACK!

If you are interested, please know that your contact info is private, no one can see who you are or contact you directly if you comment. You don’t have to be embarrassed by asking the question either.

So please click the leave comment link and ask about the scrapbooking terminology that you are most confused about today.

We are here to answer.

      Hi Terri,

      Great question. A coin book album is normally a miniature scrapbook album made out of coin holder papers. You know the ones you use to roll pennies and take to the bank?

      Anyhow, to make one you would need to have a few together and then either an accordian style binding or your own simple binding such as one fold, stapled, or ring bound. Accordian is best.

      Then you need to have hard covers for the front and back. These will keep all of your miniature pages together better. NOTE: If you use the inside of the coin envolopes – you must find a way to prevent the interior contents from falling out; sometimes a simple whole punch and a threaded and tied ribbon does the trick.

      Have fun making your coin album, feel free to post a photo in our gallery if you do. http://www.scrapbookingdirections.com/gallery
