    Picked up a little scrapbook from the charity shop yesterday, complete with a few stickers and just the size I want.Also got a plain black ring bound book (think its meant for photographs) and tooday got some lovely paper, just right to cover the back and front. So, thats another 'photo album' I can do..........something else to add to me 'to do' list...............lol

    If you scroll back to pages 3 and 4 of this thread there's some examples that are really good.
    When I've done it in the past I've decorated a page with relevant pictures (depending on who's photo is on the page). For my Dad's photos I put loads of different music images on as he was a musician. That was really for my family tree folder though.
    Most of the scrapbooking sites have a 'sample section' to give and idea on what to do.

    miss_corerupted if your bro is moving to america you want him to send you some scrapbook stuff from there it is really cheap and their is so much choice.

    I find what i want tell my bro and him and his wife find it and send it plus anything else they think i'd like .
