I'm making my own scrapbooking album cover page and I have no idea on how I can protect it from ripping or getting ruined. Any advice on how I can protect it?

I look forward to receiving any/all options that anybody can provide me with!

ARe you using fabric, chipboard, cardboard or paper as the base of your album cover?

Make a plastic book cover for it. most fabric stores sell plastic sheeting(some hardware stores too and Walmart). It is clear plastic and you can make a book cover just like people going to school would use. The stores sell it by the yard, but maybe you could find other uses for any left over plastic. I have made them before and they are not difficult and may protect your book.

My recommendation would depend on what your cover is made from. Give us more info and maybe we can help!

Thanks everyone! I made the scrapbook album cover out of cardboard.
