How can I make a journal out of scrap?

How do I make a scrap book? (details inside)?

• I want to give my friend something sweet for her birthday we've been friends for a long time, so I was thinking of making her a scrap book. The thing is, all of our pictures are on Facebook. I don't want to just, print them off a printer on regular ol typing paper, and them look all crappy. Is there a way I can send them to walmart and have them develope them? If I can, how much do you think they will charge? Also, what other things do I need to make a scrap book? I want it to be handmade, but super cute.

• Answer:

  You could right click on the Facebook photos and save them to your own computer, then try sending them to Walmart to be printed. The problem with doing that is that FB photos are often a poor resolution so you may not get high quality prints. Could your friend email you the photos instead? Then you could get the high quality you will probably want. I am not sure of the cost of printing photos at Walmart. Maybe you could check that out on their website. As fro making a cute scrapbook, there are many ways to do this. Recently I have made a series of tag albums with envelopes and decorated covers. Here's one of the ones I made: http://www.papercraftcentral.com/accordion-album.html Another idea is to make one out of paper bags and decorate the pages. You will have pockets as well as pages to use: http://www.papercraftcentral.com/paper-bag-album.html Or you might like to make an Explosion Box album: http://www.papercraftcentral.com/explosion-box-album.html All of these ideas for making an album are inexpensive but cute. I hope something about one of them inspires you to go ahead and make something unique and special for your friend.
