I've been working on my parents wedding album and tonight decided to put together the album so I make sure I'm doing things in the right order. Well, the pages are sliding around in the page protectors. I took them out and measured them and it turns out the background papers I'm using are 11.75 x 11.75. How annoying. Any ideas on how to keep them from sliding around?

I was wondering if the CM albums would work for this purpose but I don't know those dimensions. I can't cut the paper any more as I've already done many pages. Plus, would I still be able to get the "old" CM albums in white/wedding themed? I've never used their albums so I don't know how that would work.

Any ideas would be great. Thanks!

The old CM albums are 12 x 11.5 so that won't help you.If you got one of their new 12 x12 ones you could tape your pages down and would just have a .25 white border all around (but then they wouldn't move around!).

The easiest although probably not cheapest fix is to get solid cardstock and mount each page on it....you will have a 1/4 in border all around....if you picked one color you could mount them on the front & back....hth

You're right - I didn't even think about that! I can easily do one color as all the background pages are silver and all the photos are matted in black. I probably even have enough black left over from what I bought for the matting to not have to buy anymore. Problem solved! Thank you!!!!:thumbsup2
