? on newspaper article

[party of 3]

i need some help from my friends.

my little man is doing cub scouts and they went out scouting for food on saturday. the article was in the newspaper and i want to put it in his scrapbook. what do you do when you put the article in the book. i know it's not archival safe. i think i remember there being a spray of something. am i right? and won't it make the paper all wet?

any suggestions??

There is a spray called Archival Mist that you can buy and spray on things that are nonarchival. You could also scan the article into the computer- or download it from the paper website and print it onto cardstock- making it archival that way.

If their was a picture of your son in the article many papers will send you a print if you ask. I know I have a couple of prints from high school Miami Herald articles.

Oooh, is there a link? (Why are my fingers so far off this keyboard? I keep having to find my start place again and again!).

Archival Mist is very expensive. I would recommend printing the article out, if you can, and scrapbooking that.

Bubba must have been so excited to be in the newspaper!!!!!

I got archival mist or something very similar at archivers for $15.00....
I tend to spray my newspaper articles with that...

Than sometimes I tuck them away and just scan them in and print them on cardstock...

ok. no link. it was just the article saying that they would be scouting for food. i wanted to put it with the pictures i took of them actually doing it.

so are you suggesting that mist stuff? where would i find some? i have no scanner so i can't scan it in. nuts!

You should be able to find it at ACM, J's or M's.

Thanks for asking this! My little man was just in the paper too. He was featured in an article about a local Halloween party. He was dressed in a chicken suit with a sash across him that said "Pox". He was Chicken Pox!

I had a pig hat with a "Flu" sash across me and DH had a feather mask and boa with "Flu" across him. We had an infectious Halloween! The bad thing, it really was infectious. We are all sick now...DS went to the doctor this morning, DH and I are this afternoon. Thankfully DS does not have the flu, just croup.

Let me dig up a pic...Here you go...

Me and DH (really bad pic of me!)

Great costumes (and great to see your face!)! Hope you're all feeling better soon!
