I wanted to make a mini scrapbook to document some song lyrics that mean a lot to me. These lyrics are from Jeremy's song "Immovable" that he wrote for me when we first met. The book is simple and sweet and perfect for our coffee table. Here's how I made it.
I cut 4x4 inch sections from classic file folders. Then I used this method to bind the book with colored masking tape.
I took instax photos of textures around our studio to use for my pages. I photographed walls, paper, scarves and fabric! (Special Thanks to Photojojo for our Instax Wide Camera!)
Next, I just adhered the instax photos inside the book and wrote the lyrics on each photo! This is one of the simplest mini scrap books I've made!
Hope you are having a great day.... Elsie
This is so lovely.
And quite a coincidence that you guys just posted this. You will not believe what I've been assigned to do at work right now - I work for a radio station - find a song about Grilled Cheese - since it's National Grilled Cheese Day in Canada. LOL! If I only I had one of these scrapbooks filled with food songs.
Anybody got suggestions out there? :)

Scrapbooks in any form are great, but a scrapbook gravitating around music lyrics and the memories they drum up, is excellent!

Love that you used file folders!

This is so cute! Oh, also do you think that you could possibly update all of the tabs (beauty, treats, etc.) with the new things/ideas you've came up with sonit's easier to get to. It would really help :) thank you! (P.S. I love your blog!!)

I absolutely love this, such a simple way to bring together lots of memories! I think I'm going to do this for my dad's birthday with family photos and lyrics from Bruce Springsteen's 'We Take Care of Our Own'! Thanks for the inspiration!
