    Scrapbooking has changed from the old fashioned use of sugar paper books & newspaper clippings into an artistic way to deal with family memories in an acid & lignin free way to that photos do not yellow or turn brittle with age.

    There is a post on scrapbooks with some samples of both Beckies & my scrapping pages.

    Ok here is a link to some of my pages http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showpost.php?p=3427782&postcount=12

    This is the link to Beckies
    http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showpost.php?p=50789212&postcount=43

    & finally the link to the thread these images are posted in.

    Hope that helps answer some of your questions??

    I had a look at the bumbleberry website, it's way more complicated than I realised.
    I take it that scrapbooking it sticking pictures on carefully chosen pages and meticulously decorating the page with ribbons and stuff.

    Makes my scrapbook I got in pound city with old bus tickets stuck into it look kinda shabby! :o

    Modern scrapping has many differnt forms some is highly artistic where as other pages are very simple the main thing to worry about is that the papers, card & glues are acid free.

    I hope it wasn't my site that was complicated!!!:D

    When I first saw it I thought the same thing but once I gave it ago I realised that it really wasn't! Sometimes I still have mental block and throw everything on the table .... this is great at times as something has landed in the perfect spot!!:eek: :D:D

    The main thing to remember that there is no right way to scrapbook. Everybody has a different style.

    Give it ago .... you might get hooked!!
