Has anyone made an autograph book with scrapping supplies?

[jacksmommy]

I have a good stash of Disney stuff going now and was thinking of making an autograph book for my son for our upcoming trip. Would love to see any examples any of you might have made. Thanks very much!

I did. I got the idea from a book from Two Peas.

I made it 4 x 6 with o rings as the binder. Minnie was on front, (it was for a little girl), along with Disney done in WDW font script. I alternated the inside pages black and red.

I made one for our trip last summer. I went to the craft store and got papers that had pictures of different characters, which I trimmed and mounted on card stock to make them more durable. I also added some extra papers for the characters I couldn't find, or added borders to colored card stock. I used Disney stickers to decorate the front cover with the kids' names, and had the front and back covers laminated before having the whole book bound. My daughter loved it because it was made just for her, and she got to pick out some of the extra papers that were used. (If you're going to make one, I suggest starting with figuring out what size book will fit best in your bag! )

I saw a really cute, simple autograph book on another board. If you have a Cricut the person cut black Mickey heads for the cover and back and cut white Mickey heads for the autograph pages. They put the childs name on the cover and used one ring to hold the book together.

I made 2 of them for our 2007 trip. I used black Canson spiral bound artist's pads as the base and then used die cuts and stickers for front/back/title page, etc. On the individual pages, I used random Disney stamps. I was originally planning on doing pages for each character, but I didn't want to contrain who could sign and didn't want to have blank pages if we never saw a particular character. Also, we saw some characters multiple times in different costumes throughout the trip - I think Minnie signed 5 times.

We just got a new book for our next trip and chose another Canson pad/book - green this time - and did the outside all Tinkerbelle themed with chipboard and stickers. I have Cricut die cuts of all the princesses that I will put on the appropriate pages after they sign.

When we return I do 5x7 mini-digital pages w/pics for the facing pages.
