In this video I discuss what I am doing for 2024, what I did for 2023 and why I decided to do something different this year. If you'd like a process video on how to make my 2024 style album or booklet let me know in the comments.
Oh the joys of being a budget-concious European memory keeper in an American Scrapbooking world... I am a German hybrid scrapbooker working in DIN sizes, mostly DIN A 4, but also A5 for themed albums. My workaround for the costs for pocket page albums are to use office supplies like ring binders and A4 document pockets plus collector pockets (coins, postcards). For additional out of pocket pages I use overhead transparencies and for heavier things like brochures in travel albums I use something called "Abheftstreifen" (no idea what that is in English, literal transl. "file strip"). It's basically the office supply equivalent of the expensive selfadhesive, pre-punched acetate strips that AE and Studio Calico sell. Just sturdier than the overhead transparencies. From what I understood I always thought post-bound albums to be cumbersome, but your approach looks easy and even without a cover minimalisticly elegant. Just my thing.
I just stumbled on your channel and I am so glad I did! I love seeing creative, out of the box thinking when it comes to creating albums! I would love to see tutorials on how you do all of this! I just subscribed and can't wait to watch more of your videos!
I really love your approach! I also very much enjoyed your explanations as I feel the same a lot of the time. I do something similar as I live in Germany and have the same thoughts on page protectors. I have a normal album in which I just stick the cards and photos PL style just like you. Maybe I should share a video but I don’t like my photos being online so we will see! I would really love to see more of your work! ❤
This is great! I’d love a tutorial. I’m trying to shift from 9x12 to 6x12 and recently to 6x8 and also trying to kick the page protector habit as it’s expensive and too much plastic!
