Hi! My name is Leslie Moselle and I'm from Tampa, Florida. On behalf of Expert Village,
this is the essentials of scrapbooking. Chapter one: albums. The best way to decide on picking
an album for scrapbooking is basically by the size of your pictures and the amount of
design you want to put into a page. This album here is 8 1/2x8 1/2. It's a pretty small album.
The pages are fairly small, so it's harder to fit larger pictures on there, but it's
nice for a project that you don't want to have to take too much time to fill a page.
There are also larger books like this one that its pages are actually 12x12 in size.
These actually have plastic covering covering the pages. The last option you have is a traditional
8 1/2x11 pages. Basically, 8x10 photos with some kind of backing the photo will fit into
these pages. The best way to decide on which album you want to use is paper. Inside your
album the paper should be a thick size paper that you can actually glue on layers. The
plastic covered albums are harder to use because you have to slide everything into the plastic
sleeve. This is the album that I'm going to use to show you the rest of the chapter, and
this one is an 8 1/2x8 /12.
