Papercraft Projects - Focus on Paper and Embellishments!

Let the Paper and Embellishments be the Star of the Project

From Kate Pullen, About.com

Rubber stamping needn't always be the main feature of a project! With the availability of luscious designer papers rubber stamping can sometimes take a back seat. Decorative papers are perfect for projects where the paper is to be the main feature. Rich and sumptuous designs really stand out and need little in the way of additional adornments to make stunning items. The use of attractive decorative papers can turn a plain and simple project into something really special. These projects are a great way to use up any odds and ends of papers left over from scrapbooking or other projects.

Tip: If you don't have access to designer papers then why not make your own? See Make Your Own Background Papers for more information. Another money saving idea is to keep a look out for wallpaper samples. These can make interesting alternatives.

These projects use papers and embellishments from the Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen craft collection. See Profile of Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen craft collection
