LIVERPOOL SCRAPBOOK LAYOUT
A ROUGHER EDGE I decided to create a divided page about Liverpool, and that a torn paper edge would reflect the city's spirit more than a neatly-drawn diagonal. After all, this isn't Eastbourne we're talking about! 'COLOUR SEPARATION' Liverpool is all about red (Liverpool) and blue (Everton) football clubs, so I used a football shirt template in colours contrasting with their backgrounds. I also used alternate colours to mat my photos. MAN OF LETTERS I found some decent lettering for this page in a Sassafras Lass page kit (for 'winter'!). The rub-on transfer lettering from Colourcraft didn't adhere too well to be honest. I had to reinforce with a journaling pen. CITY LANDMARK SCRAPPING I felt the layout needed a focal point that transcended the idea of division - because Liverpool is very 'together' when it has to be. I thought the famous Liver Building was the best bet, and I still do. Besides, '3' is as good a number of photos for a Liverpool layout as it is for any other page. WORRABOUT THE FAB FOUR?! Well, I'm a Beatles fan and I'd love to put a black disc with 'Parlophone' on it to really complete my Liverpool scrapbook layout. Mind you, I wouldn't dream of posting that on the web. I'd need more than a little help from my friends! COULD I BUILD MY OWN WEBSITE? Why not? I couldn't tell one end of a computer from another and then I accidentally stumbled on 'SiteBuildIt!' or 'SBI!' - and it all started falling into place. I've never come across such a supportive and success-oriented group of people as the unique 'community' of fellow 'SBIers' who will share their advice and experiences for free.
