Each Thursday I review a book or blog related to scrapbooking.
The Review
I reviewed Tammy Tutterow’s blog from March 21 to April 22, 2011.
Tammy Tutterow’s blog highlights her crafty projects. She does feature scrapbook layouts based on Sketch Support sketches, but the bulk of her posts were various other types of projects. She uses conventional scrapbook supplies in these projects, but they are not just layouts. She showcases art journals, altered canvas, cards, and so on.
I liked that she also keeps a personal blog that is accessible from the main blog. Some people combine the two, but I think sometimes it is nice when they are separate. I think it just depends on what your purposes are with your blog posts.
Tammy also shared a layout of her daughter’s on the site. It is always refreshing to see children scrapbooking and how they scrapbook.
Overall, Tammy Tuttorow’s blog provides great ideas for using your supplies in non-scrapbooking ways. Though many scrapbookers already do this, we all don’t for whatever reason. I don’t really use my scrapbooking supplies outside of scrapbooking so I do enjoy seeing how other people do this. Maybe one day I will, but probably not anytime soon.
