Scrapbooking... the right way to do it!


I've been doing scrapbooks all my life. I'm kinda of an hoarder plus I love stationery so not that unusual that I also want to collect every little piece of paper/crap that can sparkle a wee memory. I started with films, then came the Take That phase, the clothes/fashion phase... and the rest is history (and there's at least 1 album to testify for every mania of mine!)

I was recently looking into getting an album for my Amsterdam trip when I came across the Smash* scrapbooks... and they are the coolest thing that I have ever seen!
The albums come in a couple of different sizes, different colours & themes; inside they have some 'decorated' pages and ordinary ones to add all your stuff. You also get a pen, where one side is a pen and the other is a glue stick.







Then you can buy an unlimited number of adds-on, of course; I think they are pretty reasonable - between  £1.99 and £5.99 (I think the album was £12/14). They do cute mini post it, washi tapes, envelopes to store your most precious items, tabs, clips... really anything possible to prettify your album even more. :)



ummm, I think maybe I went a bit overboard but I couldn't decide... now, I can't wait to start putting the album together!!!
Do you enjoy scrapbooking... or you're just too cool??! ;P

  2. These look amazing! Where did you get everything from? Was it an online shop? I love scrapbooking and have done a couple for previous holidays. I want to do one for our wedding photos as well. xx
