5 Easy Steps And... Go!

Learn about your 10-month-old baby's milestones, development, what games to play and what toys might be fun.


Want to get started scrapbooking, but need a little push?

Well, you're not alone! There's so much material out there on scrapbooking and it can look so advanced, that a beginner just can't get started! It took me almost a year... ;-)

So how to get started with scrapbooking then?

Well, follow these simply tips and you're on your way!

Tips To Get Started Scrapbooking

Find inspiration

I think a great way to get started is to watch a few videos or already made scrapbooks to get your own inspiration flowing.

You don't have to buy a DVD or book the first thing you do, since there are some free scrapbooking video clips out there to watch.

I have gathered a few helpful scrapbooking video clips here.

Gather your stuff

Well, you can't create a scrap book with material... So start gathering photos as well as other material that you might find useful.

To find material without having to buy a lot, check our tips here.

Stuff to buy

Well, you won't be able to start with a zero budget... You do need paper, adhesive, something to cut papers and photos with (a cutter or a pair of scissors), an album and pens.

2 or 3 colors of acid-free papers will do, don't overdo it.

You can find scrapbooking tools and material here.

A place to be

You don't need to decorate a specific room or buy an expensive scrapbooking table, but you do need a special place to be. Trying to use the floor or kitchen table is a sure way to abandon the project. Just too much of a hassle!

Here you'll find some tips on how to plan your place to do your scrapbooking.

Ready to go!

Actually now, you have all you need; the inspiration, the material and the tools... (Well, you need the time too, of course...)

If you still find it hard to get started, why not buy a how-to book or - even better - a DVD. You'll find my review of a couple of good scrapbooking DVDs here.

So... what are you waiting for!

Have fun!
