Scrapbooking

[Goldy]

Well! I am a scrapbooker, a crafter, an artist and all these dreamy things. With Inkscape I create most of my digital scrapbooking, but it's also my best tool for creating wedding-cristening and party invitations which is my real job. With it I have made a lot of freebies for my blog and once I participated in a challenge that I changed a plain photo to a prospective one using Inkscape and I had such a fun time!
Years ago, to the previous type of Inkscape that I had, I had managed to add an extension and I had it connentet with my cut machine. A lot of SVG's had been created then...

Oh, that's awesome!  I've been thinking of trying some scrapbooking, but I never thought of using Inkscape for it.

Do you print directly onto card stock?  Or do you print on paper and glue it onto the heavier pages?

Oh no, I might have to get a printer now....haha!  Not sure if I would want to get a cutter....but it's tempting to think about!

For the invitations it's different every time, cause of the choises on fonts, colours etc, the clients will make. So, I make an individual work on every invitation. The original file I place it on a A4 or A3 paper file (resing it to feet as many times as it can), according to the model of the invitation. If it's a self fold invitation it takes one on A4 or two on A3. If it's for a complicated / art invitation, then it takes more (cause these I cut and glue on another part of the invitation). I prefer to export this on png or jpg so that any extra printing will not have any changes on colours or dimensions. It also this way it gives me a good porfolio that potential clients can see...
For scrapbooking... well on this version I haven't the extension of cutting... mostly because my cut machine isn't working any more... so, till I buy a new one.... I make a lot of transfer prints though. Quotes I like on jpg, they are perfectly mirrored with inkscape, and printed so that I put them on any of my art work with transfer's technique!

Can you explain more what you mean by "transfer print" or "transfer technique"?  Do you just mean that you print it out?  Or print onto some sticky paper or something?
