Scrapbook Paper Piecing

I'm going to make a scrapbook for my father. What supplies do I need, (I'm on a budget.) and how do I make it?

I was thinking about punching holes in pieces of paper and stringing them up or putting them in a binder. I'll use a glue stick to stick on the pictures. Is that ok? I don't get to see my dad often, so I came up with this idea for a Christmas present.

First of all, outsource your family for pictures, newspaper articles, even favorite family recipes,saved greeting cards from holidays and birthdays etc,everyone will have something to contribute, right down to pressed flowers from funerals. Purchase one of those very inexpensive photo albums, from your local dollar store. just arrange the items in between the plastic in the pages, to keep them well preserved. You can decorate the cover with some cut and paste.if you like. The best cover, would be a picture of him in his young years. You can do it! Don't stop there . You have a very Good I idea. I always take pictures throughout the year and then buy inexpensive frames for a dollar or two and give them to everybody in the family as my Christmas gift to them. It gives a memory and it is the greatest, most appreciated affordable gift!
