Advice on doing collage?
I have a plain black photo album that is going to serve as a scrapbook for my mom's 50th birthday. I want to decorate it using cutouts from magazines, etc. Is there a product I can use to do this? Modge Podge? What's the best thing to do?
I wasn't clear before - I want to decorate the OUTSIDE of the album, like the cover! I already have the pages done, my mom's friends and family put those together - I want to adhere clippings from magazines, etc. to the album itself - what can I use to do that?
If you want the album to last a long time (and I'm sure you do), your best bet is gluing the items down and then looking for some clear-coat acrylic that is durable and won't destroy the pictures you glued down. Mod-Podge would be good for getting the stuff down to begin w/, and you can get the glossy kind to put over top of it, but I've found that it's not quite as durable as I'd hoped it'd be. Try talking to someone in your local craft store that knows their stuff about items like spray-on clear-coat vs. Mod-Podge, etc.
