My First....
I know you are looking saying, "What in the WORLD is this?"
This my friends is my first Scrapbook. For a Graduation Gift (We won't say how long ago that was!) my Mother had a lady take a standard photo album and decorate it with my School Colors.
I took that album and filled it up with photos, flyers, cutouts, anything I could get my hands on from my graduation. Confetti, that on the tables.....all made their way into my FIRST SCRAPBOOK shown here.
I look at it every once and awhile to admire it. No, it isn't full of the coolest materials on the market or fancy techniques.
THAT DOESN"T MATTER!!!
I am going through it and being able to relive and remeber my Grade 12 year thanks to it being Scrapbooked! 
What does your first look like? Do you still not enjoy going back through the pages and admiring the photos; admiring the story?

Hey Nic - I have one like that, but my Aunt cross-stitched the cover! I as well filled it full with Graduation momentos.. it's neat to look back!! Even though it doesn't have the new Heidi Swapp flowers, or MM Brads, etc - it's still a cool scrapbook!
I too have my first scrapbook - unfortunately it was well after graduation and after my first child was born - I glued a whole lot of stuff in that book - and cut a whole lot more - Whenever I read through it - I do love the memories it conjures up - but I do cringe sometimes and think...
"You've come a long way Baby!"
...as a side note...I thought you were going to say that that was going to be a class - and i was thinking...WOW I really don't keep up with "styles" do I?! LOL
Exactly!!! I thought the same thing when I looked through mine, "Boys, has scrapbooking ever changed!" However, that same nostalgic feeling came back :)
