CM Albums - 30 sheets per album?

[Belle0101]

Is that what they suggest? I can't remember for certain. I know it depends on how heavily you embellish the page but does that seem about right - 2 packs of pages?

Thanks!!

I think it used to be 40 or 48. i just stop when its bulging or too heavy to lift.

Hope that helps.

Between 30 and 45 pages, or two to three packages of pages, depending how much you embellish and wallpaper.

CM's rule of thumb is the width of the blue piece on the multi-purpose tool.

I've done many albums for my mom, transferring her photos from the magnetic albums to CM ones. I've only done photos and have used 45 pages. They are on the brink of being too heavy and cumbersome. I did them like that since there were so many albums to do, but I'd draw the line at 40 unembellished pages. They just get darn heavy otherwise!

Thanks for the responses! I was trying to figure how many albums I should buy, the original 12 X 12 size, since they are a "While Supplies Last" item. I rarely ever wallpaper and don't use lots of embellishments so it's good to know I can go closer to 40 than just 30.

Once, or if, I ever get done with 1999 - 2004 then I'll switch over to the "True" sizes. I am so far behind. Once I get caught up, or at least to 2005, then I think I'll wallpaper more, use more embellishments, etc. Right now I just want to get to this decade!

Thanks!!

Smart to get the pages now. Now get scrapping.

Belle, you might as well use the True 12x12 from the start. The original albums are "while supplies last" but they are not reduced in price.
