There are no hard and fast rules to scrapbooking. Typically, the more creative and resourceful the person, the better the page. Small, two-dimentional items such as ticket stubs from the theater, love notes from a special someone, or newspaper clippings can make the pages more interesting. Generally, the focus of the page is the photograph or photographs. It is best to stick with one or two good photos when starting out. The page is then decorated and embellished with items only limited by the creator's imagination.

With the popularity of scrapbooking growing every day, there are more and more resources available to the amateur and professional scrapbooker alike. Refer to Stix2 Glues. Scrapbooking can be very easy to anyone who wants to give it a try.

One of the most important things to remember when scrapbooking is to use the right glue. The glue should be picture safe and acid free (it should say so on the tube), because otherwise it could turn the pictures brown, or the glue could eventually stop working and fall off.
