The fives things I should buy would be
1. 12x12 plastic sleeve pages, suitable to go into a ring builder that is designed to fit the 12 x 12 pages
2. a 12 x 12 ring builder
3. as much plan 12 x 12 acid free lignin free card stock as I could afford
4. scrap booking mounting squares
5. purpose built guilotine cutter for scrapbooking

Things that I already have, or that I can scrounge from other areas of the house are
are pens
a computer for printing out stories
photos
sissors

My emphasis is always on the stories, assembling the info, doing charts, puting in copies of original docs rather than simply decorating the photo themselves.
Cheers
Sandra
