In our last neighborhood there were tons of scrapbooking groups. But back then I wasn't ready and didn't have the time to scrapbook. But now I'd like to start some books for my kids about their grandparents. I know there are different types of scrapbooking- I had a friend who did the most amazing things with ribbons and stickers, colors and textures. I don't want to go into a ton of creative detail (I'm afraid I'll never finish the books if I get that detailed!).
I'm looking for the simplest way to display photos and odds and ends like ticket stubs and award ribbons. What, in your opinion is the best way to do this? Should I use those plastic photo-insert pages? Do things fall out of those pages? Or should I stick stuff to blank pages?
Also, what size scrap book is best, 8 1/2x11" or 12x12"? I plan on creating at least 4 books, maybe more. Which size book is the easiest to find accessories for? Which do you like best?
More questions- where is the best place to buy supplies? Is archival-safe REALLY that important?
Thanks a lot in advance for your help!!
