What seems like weeks but was probably months ago, I was chatting with Melissa and she made asked how my Disney World album was going. I laughed and said something like “there’s a few pages in there still to go…” She mentioned that she scheduled herself to do a week of blogging about vacation scrapbooking, and asked if I wanted to join in the fun. I said YES – because it would give me some inspiration to get more done AND the chance to blog about my #1 favorite subject to scrapbook: vacations.
Today to get things started I have a video (about 7min long) where I am talking about my “big vacation” scrapbooking methods and the album and page protectors I use.

Please do come back for more – I will share new layouts, tutorials, and materials using my unfinished Disney World trip/album as my inspiration all week. While I’m “going Disney” – the tips, ideas, and methods I use could be applied to any subject, event, or vacation. I hope you enjoy. Here are links to the album type and page protectors I use:

Scrapbook.com has a wonderful selection of the albums + page protectors I like to use.
If you have any questions, comments, etc. about my video, or vacation scrapbooking in general please feel free to email me or leave a comment here. Also – make sure you visit Melissa’s blog for vacation scrapbooking awesomeness! Love that girl’s style, and she’s been to some pretty cool places too.
happy crafting!
What a great idea. I got some of these page protectors quite my accident but know I have a great idea on how to use them!!! Thanks for some great tips and ideas!!
I love your idea of combining finished LOs with the divided page protectores. That makes so much sense to me. Looking forward to a week of fun and inspiration.
This is exactly what I do with all my photos (Stacy Julian LOM style). You can view the photos, without fingerprints, before they are scrapbooked. Having some extras from a vacation is good because like you mentioned you can give one to your kids when they need one or you can mix them on other non-travel layouts.
What an excellent idea! Thanks for sharing this!
Omg im so happy that you’re doing this. It will give me tons of ideas for my own WDW album!! Thanks May
I wasn’t as young as you when I started scrapbooking but I too started scrapbooking holidays (vacations) as it was before DS was born. And they’re still one of my fave things to scrapbook. I have sets of page protectors from WRMK which are very similar to the AC ones – love them for big trips!
