Scrapbooks, Memory Books and Photo Albums.
Scrapbooking is a method for preserving personal and family history in the form of photographs, printed media, and memorabilia contained in decorated Albums, or scrapbooks. The idea of keeping printed materials of personal interest probably dates to shortly after the invention of printing. Historically, scrapbooking was a tradition similar to storytelling, but with a visual and tactile focus. Select this link to view our Baby’s Christmas Memory Book.
Some of the earliest and most famous American scrapbookers include Thomas Jefferson and Mark Twain. Select this link to view our Blue Baby Shower Gifts.
Old scrapbooks tended to have photos mounted with photo mount corners and perhaps notations of who was in a photo or where and when it was taken. They often included bits of memorabilia like newspaper clippings, letters, etc. Modern scrapbooking has evolved into creating attractive displays of photos, text, journaling and memorabilia.

The most important scrapbooking supply is the album itself, which can be permanently bound, or allow for insertion of pages. There are other formats, such as mini albums and accordion style fold out albums. Some of these are adhered to various containers, such as matchbooks, CD cases, or other small holders.

Modern scrapbooking is done largely on 12 inch square or 8˝×11 inch pages, but recently smaller albums have become very popular. The most common new formats are 6, 7, or 8 inch square. Select this link to view our Little Snowman Baby Bib Sets.
Basic materials include background papers, including printed and cardstock paper, photo corner mounts or other means of mounting photos such as adhesive dots, photo mounting tape, or acid free glue, scissors, a paper trimmer, art pens, archival pens for journaling, and mounting glues like thermo tac. More elaborate designs require more specialized tools such as die cut templates, rubber stamps, craft punches, stencils, inking tools, eyelet setters, heat embossing tools and personal die cut machines.

Various accessories, referred to as "embellishments," are used to decorate scrapbook pages. Embellishments include stickers, rub-ons, stamps, eyelets, brads and chipboard elements in various shapes, alphabet letters and ribbon. The use of die cut machines is also increasingly popular. An electronic die cutting machine, similar to a printer, can be connected to one's computer to cut any shape or font. Select this link to view our Santa’s Little Helper Baby Bibs Set.
