Things You’ll Need:
A photo album with acid free pages (size is up to you)
Photographs
Stickers
Die cuts
ABC stickers or stencils
Adhesive
Acid free patterned or colored paper
Page protectors
Ruler
Journaling pens (ones that are safe for scrapbooking)
Dictionary
Step1:
Gather as many items as possible prior to getting started on your scrapbook photo album. Shop clearance racks and sales for stickers, die-cuts and anything else you think might work in the album. Fronts of cards often have great images that could be incorporated into the photo album. Check out several ABC books from the library and make color copies of any pictures that are unique or fun. Look through photographs of family and friends and fun activities, choosing the ones you think would work for one letter or another.
Step2:
Once you have a good stash of items you plan to use, it’s time to prepare your pages. On each page, create a border with a straight line using a ruler. On the outside of that page border, write words for that particular letter. For example, around the letter A page, you could write words such as apron, arms, amazing, accordion, adventure, add, above, Abba, album, ankle, airplane, acorn, and others, until the border was full. You can use as many or as few words as you'd like. For letters such as Q and X, repeat a series of words around the border, given that there aren’t as many from which to choose. This is where a dictionary comes in handy!
Step3:
Use large ABC stickers or a letter stencil to highlight the letter of the page. Then, it’s as simple as adding stickers, photographs, die-cuts and other embellishments to your scrapbook photo album page. For example, the letter E page might include the following: eggplant, easel, explorer, ears, elephant, earthworms, eggs, Elmo, and Ernie. If you have a family member with a name that begins with E, use photographs of that person on that page. Border words might include echo, ebb, egret, eight, egg, Eyeore, emu, and ear, to name a few.
Step4:
Some letters of the alphabet are more challenging than others. The letter O might feature Ohio, oars, an octopus, owls, and onions. For the letter U, you could use photographs of uncles, umbrellas, and the United States. For the letter X, you could use xylophone, x-ray, box, and saxophone (just underline the x in the words). The letter Q page might feature a queen, quilt, quarters, quarter notes, and a quote. Just get creative and have fun with it.
Step5:
Under each photograph, sticker, die-cut or color copy, name the item and then underline the first letter of the word to bring attention to the letter featured on the page of the photo album.
Step6:
Other ideas for photo album ABC pages might include using your state of residence, field trips, zoo animal pictures, favorite cartoon characters, photos of pets, nature pictures, or even pictures from cards you’ve received. Include a favorite poem on the P photo album page. Fill the pages as full as you like, or leave room to add other photographs and embellishments later.
Step7:
Use acid free paper to back your photographs or use stickers if you want to add more color.
Step8:
A title page in the front of the album is a nice touch. Include the date the photo album was gifted. Perhaps allow an older child to create and color the scrapbook album page for a personal touch.
Step9:
Page protectors are a must for this type of album since children love to point at the photographs and touch the pages.

6 Steps to Lasting Pages
Use the Acid Scale When Scrapbooking
Things You’ll Need:
PH-detecting pen
Acid-free scrapbooking album and pages
Things You’ll Need:
PH-detecting pen
Acid-free scrapbooking album and pages
Acid-Free Paper
Archival safe adhesives, markers and chalks
Step1:
Understand the acid scale. The acid scale runs from 1 to 14. One is the most acidic, while 14 is the most alkaline. Seven is considered neutral, which means that anything with a pH of 7 or above does not contain acid.
Step2:
Shop around for the right paper. Look for papers with a pH of 7 or above. If the packaging on the paper does not give the specific pH of the paper, it should say "acid free."
Step3:
Buy a pH-detecting pen. You can buy these pens at crafts stores or from Light Impressions (see Resources below). These pens are good to use if you are not sure of the pH of the paper you have bought.
Step4:
Use your pH-detecting pen to test the paper in old scrapbooks and photo albums. If the paper tests as acidic, you should remove the photos and replace them in a new, acid-free scrapbook or album.
Step5:
Expect to pay more. Acid-free paper is more expensive than regular paper. This is largely because it has undergone a process in which the natural acids were removed. This process increases the cost of manufacturing the paper.
Step6:
Make sure the other elements of your scrapbook besides the paper are safe as well. Use acid-free adhesives, markers and chalks

Is "Acid-Free" Enough?
"Isn't acid free enough?" The answer is no, acid free isn't enough and I'll explain why.
Think about all of the chemicals that you have in your home. You know, the ones that are under your kitchen sink with a baby safe lock on them. Most of them contain toxic chemicals. Would you want any of them near your photos? Acid is NOT the only material that damages photos.
Unless we are taking precautions to ensure that we are using safe materials, we might as well place our beautiful scrapbook pages in a magnetic album. Few of us would do that, but many of us do not know very much about photo preservation, what is safe, what is unsafe and WHY certain materials should be used or avoided.
Papers should be acid free, lignin free, bleach free, chemically stable. Permanent inks should be used for writing and stamping.
The Issue of Acid and Lignin:
Anything that touches your photos should be acid-free and lignin-free, including paper, glue, markers and stickers. Why? Otherwise your photos will discolor and disintegrate more quickly than they would naturally. Products that are photo-safe will be labeled as such. You can also look for the CK-OK label, which means the product has been tested by Creating Keepsakes magazine’s experts for photo-safety.
What Is Acid-Free—and Why Does It Matter?:
Acid causes paper and photos to disintegrate. This aging process is slowed significantly when acid is removed from paper during the manufacturing process. Not all scrapbooking materials are photo-safe, so be sure your paper, glue and markers are labeled acid-free or archival-quality before you purchase them. Paper Pizazz® papers are tested and guaranteed to be acid-free and lignin-free.
What’s Lignin?:
Lignin is the natural bonding element which holds wood fibers together. Newsprint contains lignin—you’ll notice how brittle and yellowed a newspaper becomes after just a few days. Like acid, lignin can be removed during processing to make scrapbooking paper safe.
If you want to include newspaper articles or announcements in your memory album, photocopy them onto acid-free, lignin-free paper. Copy onto an off-white paper that resembles newsprint for an authentic look.
