My scrapbooks

I thought I’d show some pages from my scrapbooks. I have three so far (all too big to fit the scanner I’m afraid) plus a box full of unsorted clippings, and here are some pages from scrapbook number one.

This was the first page I put together many years ago and it doesn’t have a theme apart from everything being black and white.

Shiny, glitter and green.

Pink.

I cut these Eden ads (one more below) from a Frida magazine when I was like ten and looked at them so much that they completely fell a part. I thought they were so beautiful and I still do. In more recent years I was very happy to find new untattered ones in some magazine to put in my scrapbook. This page is funny because without thinking about it I managed to put two pictures showing the underside of boobs on the same page :D

Pink again. I love those vodka ad showgirls.

Black and white. I think that’s Gunilla Pontén in the small picture.

Black sort of.

[Image]
Gold and royal stuff.

This page which is supposed to have an ice theme isn’t finished yet but I still had to show it since those Angel by Thierry Mugler ads are some of the most beautiful pictures I’ve ever seen. The spiky catsuit is just perfect.

Orange.

More orange.

Glittery red.

ååh gud vad fina! jag har alltid önskat att jag orkade scrapbooka men det gör jag aldrig … bara lite. ibland ;) fint med hon från army of lovers och bra med färgteman och allmänt +++

smart! jag har hur mycket tidningar som helst som jag sparat bara för vissa bilder eller reportage. borde klippa ut det bästa och klistra in i en bok precis som du gjort, tack för inspirationen! och vad glad jag blir av att se scully och mulder, ska genast kolla på arkiv x tror jag!

these are great! I like the colour themes, I used to love making scrapbooks too but I don’t have time anymore :)

Tack Naomi! :)

Thank you!

those are great! I have a similar scrapbook type thing, but instead of pictures it more graphic design oriented.

I wonder if anyone wore those ace Stokholm glasses with the decals on them.

Actually I think those are just reflections, although that would have been neat.

I love all your red-heads so much!

I don’t know what it is about red hair but it just draws me in. I would love to do my hair red (well a natural kind or ginger - more like your orange pages).

They are beautiful! So inspiring…The Eau D’Eden ads are absolutely gorgeous! (I love provocative perfume ads).

As a graphic designer, I totally appreciate this type of collages! What a wonderful source of inspiration. The vegas girls are so glamorous, and I love the vintage feel to these photos.
