START HERE: What you actually need
-
Micro-Tip Scissors (Perfect for Detail Work)
Shop scissors hereThese are my go-to scissors for everything from quick trims to tiny, detailed cuts. The fine tip makes it easy to get into small spaces, and the non-stick blades help prevent adhesive from building up — which makes such a difference when you’re working on multiple pages.
-
Repositionable Tape Runner
Shop adhesives hereThis is my absolute favorite adhesive!
It holds your photos and paper securely, but gives you the freedom to lift and reposition if something doesn’t feel quite right — no tearing, no stress. This adhesive holds well but allows you to reposition your photos or paper without damage — making it easy to adjust as you go.
-
Albums, Pages & Pockets
Shop albums hereThese are the albums I trust to hold my memories for years to come. Available in 12x12, 8x8, and journal sizes. The pages lay flat and the expandable design allows your album to grow over time. And one of the biggest reasons I love them? They’re made to last — backed by a lifetime guarantee! I pair mine with their top-loading page protectors.
-
Dual-TIp Journaling Markers
Shop markers hereThis is my #1 top recommended pen for adding stories, captions, and little details to your pages. With both a fine tip and a round tip, they are archival-safe, meaning they're designed specifically for scrapbooking and won’t damage your photos over time. Because your words matter just as much as your photos.

My most-used tools
-
12-Inch Paper Trimmer
Shop trimmers hereI’d honestly be lost without this — I use it just as much as my adhesive. It makes clean, straight cuts quick and effortless. What I love most is the interchangeable blades — you can create different edge designs without needing a drawer full of decorative scissors! It keeps things simple while still giving you creative flexibility.
-
Photo Trimmer
Shop trimmers hereThis is the tool I reach for every time I sit down to scrapbook. It makes trimming photos quick, precise, and effortless. It helps everything come together neatly without overthinking.
-
2-Way Corner Rounder Punch
Shop corner rounder hereI use this on almost every page. It gives your photos and paper a clean, finished look with either rounded or notched corners — and it’s one of those small details that makes everything feel more polished.
-
Custom Cutting System Bundle
Shop cutting system hereIf you love clean, precise cuts (without the frustration), this system makes it so much easier. I especially love it for creating perfect circles — whether you’re adding a simple detail or building a full layout.
