How is it the third Thursday of the month already?! Well, I’m back with the lovely Alexandra for our Keep It Together link-up. If you have a planner/scrapbook/memory keeping type of post to share, link up with us! We would love to have you.
Today, I’m here to talk about scrapbooking. I used to scrapbook all the time when I was younger. I was the person in my friend group always taking pictures and I’d then turn those into fun scrapbook pages. I wouldn’t say I was the best or most creative, but it was a fun way to keep memories instead of just using a regular photo album. However, it’s been years now since I’ve really scrapbooked and I want to get back into it. For one thing, I have lots of printed photos that I still need to deal with – and then I want to print out all those photos that are just languishing online and scrapbooking them would be fun!
Most importantly though, I really want to scrapbook my trip to London, England (which I took almost two years ago). At first I was just going to put the London photos in an album and scrapbook the Harry Potter aspects of the trip – there are a few – but I’m thinking I might scrapbook everything. I’ll have to see – it would be a big album (or two different albums). At any rate, shopping for scrapbook supplies is half the fun of being a scrapbooker so I headed to Etsy to see what I could find that might be suitable for a London/Harry Potter scrapbook. Tell me what you think – as well is if I should do one or two scrapbooks for this trip – in the comments!
Cream of the Crop Shoppe is a fun Etsy store with lots of London themed stickers:
The above stickers are $2.49 and you can get them here. Some other London themed stickers here and here. I will definitely be visiting this shop again!
If you’re a planner – or scrapbooker – then you all know about the fun of washi tape! The Etsy shop DaDaStickers has some really cute London and travel themed washi tape rolls. The above London Landmarks washi tape can be found here and there is even washi tape for the London tube.
How cute are these London Project Journal Cards? These are a just a handful of the cards – you get 8 – and you can see them all here. Plus, these are only $2!! The shop Pug Paper Co has some other fun items too (especially if you are a planner) so definitely check them out.

Moving on to Harry Potter specific items – I have a couple pages of HP themed stickers that I could use already, but who doesn’t love looking at HP items? Here are some other possibilities-
Shop My Rubber Stamp has some adorable Harry Potter items (stickers and washi tape galore!) I mean, how cute are those mini HP stickers above? You can find them here. You can also get some Harry Potter icons washi tape here or these fun HP planner stickers that can easily be used for scrapbooking.
These fun Harry Potter die cuts can be found hereย and the shop owner, Patti Chic Creations, has a few other HP inspired items too.
Finally, there is some cute Harry Potter confetti, which you can get here from the shop Lou Cat Studio.

What do you think? Some fun items I could use for my future scrapbooks?
Keep it Together and check out some London and Harry Potter themed scrapbook supplies! #harrypotter #ontheblog Share on XLink Up!
I’ll visit/comment ASAP.ย
Scrapbooking looks like such a fun hobby, and using it to remember a trip would be neat I would think. Love those stickers!
I once was a scrapbooker. I have tons of stickers and need to sell. I wish they could find a good home.
Love your scrapbooking Ideas, I need to get back into it.
I love the washi tape and little cards! So cute. There are so many fun travel themed items in the scrapbook world! ๐ I love Kelly Purkey’s travel themed stamps. They are so great because I can use them in every album if I want to! They have such fun themes like: “I ate this, I drank this, I saw this, etc.” and more of course. So jelly! I’d love to go to London! ๐ XO – Alexandra
Simply Alexandra: My Favorite Things
I have just started to scrapbook our trip to London from 2017. We loved the Harry Potter everything we saw. Need this for my scrapbook.
I am not a scrapbooker, but we love that tape. The Princess likes to use it for projects.
I used to scrapbook. I remember I had Harry Potter stickers but I forget what I used them for!
Wow! You’re right! It’s the third Tuesday of August! When I read that I totally didn’t believe it!
Scrapbooking is so awesome but I just don’t have enough time in my day at the moment! Hopefully I can go back to being able to be slightly more creative? I love these ideas and the supplies you’ve found are awesome, especially the HP stuff!
i love this! I have so many things I want to scrapbook, I needed some inspo!
Love the London washi tape. So cute! And the journaling cards are so perfect for adding little memories or descriptions. Awesome new supplies, Lauren!
I used to scrapbook a lot when I was younger! I don’t anymore though, since I don’t have enough time. I usually need to finish the thing in an entire sitting or I’ll never get back to it. D: The London washi tape IS THE CUTEST THING I’VE EVER SEEN!!!
I used to scrapbook and still have my books. It is such a fun hobby, but I feel that it can also be very time consuming and it CAN be expensive… or at least, maybe I just spend too much time looking at all of the stickers, etc. at Hobby Lobby and it adds up quickly! heehee! I think a London scrapbook will be so perfect!!

I love all these scrapbooking ideas! I have not made a scrapbook in years but id like to.
These are all such cute items to add to your London scrapbook! I keep meaning to jump back into scrapbooking, it’s been a long time since I’ve done any. I’m still in the middle of finishing a baby book for my four year old!
Oh I love all the fun stickers and scrapbooking supplies. Please tell me you’ll share your finished product–it looks like it will turn out awesome!
I’ve always liked the idea of scrapbooking, and if I scrapbooked I’d totally do a Harry Potter themed one from my trip to London too! I had no idea there were so many crafty things for Harry Potter, so thanks for sharing!
It has been ages since I scrap booked, but is so much fun!! Great finds ๐
Oh what fun!!
I love the idea of scrapbooking your trip to London. I keep meaning to do the same but never seem to get around to it. I love all of the supplies you bought, especially the HP ones.
All of these things look so cool. I am so bad at actually getting these things done but it is fun to see what other people come up with. My sister used to be really into scrapbooking and I always enjoyed looking at her creations.
These are too cute! I’ve recently adopted a planner and I realize that I’m not as creative as some. We shall call it a work in progress, but I need these.
If I did more scrapbooking, I’d have to have all the Harry Potter stuff! Thanks for sharing these!
Yes! Time is really moving so fast!! These are so cute! I don’t have much talent and skills in scrapbooking but I know how to admire them, and yours are so beautiful.
Oh the washi is so cute. I used to scrapbook 10+ years ago, too. I miss it sometimes. There’s so many more crafting options for it now aren’t there?
