Had a look. Very good. I love looking at others work and feel scrapbooking really shows emotion.
Seems you are also a wiz on the computer. Hope to learn how to attatch a photo soon. Had a look but it all went over my head. Dont expect me to post a link that would be amazing.

mini scapbooks using the purple cow trimmer and laminater

Post by Crafting_Katie on Mon 17 Mar 2008, 10:14 pm

Hi everyone!! I have a nice idea for anyone new to scrapbooking who finds the idea of a 12x12 or 8x8 inch page a bit intimidating!!. Create much smaller pages a bit like making cards but with photos!! Then laminate these using the 'purple cow trimmer and laminter,' hole punch all the pages and join them together with pretty ribbon, This makes a really nice gift and is also a great way of using up odd scraps of card and paper!!! Very Happy

I do some scrapbooking with the photos I take when we are on holiday. When I started I had the Papermania Scapbooking Kit and its great. There are lots of things that you can include on your pages. It has a pair of fancy edge scissors, brads, papers, stickers, embellishments and more. In fact I am still on my first album. I just keep buying the extra sleeves for it.

To round this all off this kit is now on offer with when you buy Issue 9 of Craft Now! (£12.99). A real bargin!
