    rainmac - where did you get them from ? I've justy trawled so many scrapbook sites I'm going boggle eyes and didn't see anything like that. But I've taken the bull by the horns and ordered two black books from Kalula.com
    Don;t know quite what they'll be like but the picture looked ok and I'm itching to have a go.............:rotfl:

    Ooohhh hope they get to you soon so you can let loose your creativity!!!

    my stuff arrived from craftwork cards on Saturday. I ordered some chipboard mini albums and they just had holes in. I was wondering what to use to bind the pages together - now I know - brads! will have to go and see if they sell them in the local scrapbook shop.

    Or could use ribbons/fibres or book rings maybe? Looking forward to seeing your 1st book when it's finished.

    That's creativity mary! I was told once at school via a school report that I had no imagination and was not creative. Teachers, what do they know :rotfl:

    The Papermania chipboard albums would be good for photos... I think the pages are 6x6 inches and the chipboard covers a bit bigger. Cost £2.99 and you can buy them from Hobbycraft.

    There are loads of mini books and albums on ebay.

    I know some people do go to places where picture framer and ask for of cuts of mountboard and use that.

    Alternatively you can buy chipboard and cut it to size, of course it would depend on if you can cut straight (I can't)
