Ever since I have been scrapbooking, I have been looking for a way to make my own scrapbook albums.  I finally came across an idea.  Make them out of paper bags.  Any size will work.  I just fold them in half and use the hole puncher and fix them together with ribbon or eyelets.  Decorate them to your own taste.  This idea is very easy and affordable.  It adds even more personalization to your album.
