Strap-hinge album? How do I use?

Topic Closed

May '09 Scrappincgwife

I was recently given a strap-hinge album and I'm not sure how to do it. Do I just glue my LO's right on to the pages? There's no page protector or anything? I want to use the album simply because it is gorgeous but the "something new" aspect of it has me nervous!

yes, you can glue your background paper right to the page. you can also get slip on page protectors that will slide over everything/

Thank you, girls!

It looks like you have all the help you need but just FYI (from a former CM consultant) if you need to add or remove pages ALWAYS do it from the back!!

Enjoy, i always really liked how flat the strap hinged albums lay!

You can scrap right onto the pages themselves OR make layouts on background paper and stick the whole background paper and everything onto the page. Creative Memories has page protectors for them.
