Answers to Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the quickest way to contact us?
 

 A:  The quickest way to contact Tutt's Scrapbooking is by phone or email.  

Q: How long will it take to complete my album?
 

A:  During the initial consultation we will determine a timeframe and deadline together.  The completion

will depend on the size of the project.  Generally, a 10 page 12x12 album will take about 2 weeks to

complete.  A 10 page 8 1/2 x 11 album will take less time. 

 

If a album needs to be rushed we will do our best to provide you with your scrapbook as soon as possible. 

Tutt's Scrapbooking will make every effort to accommodate you. 

 

Q: How many photos fit on a page?
 

A:  It depends on the size of the picture/photo. 

Q: How do I provide my photos?
 

A:  If your photo collection is primarily prints, you should group related photos together and put them into labeled

envelopes or Ziploc bags prior to our initial consultation.  Likewise, if your collection is digital, you should

organize groups of photos into logical folders.  This will make the process much smoother.  You and I will discuss

each photo at the initial consultation, and I will get a sense of the look you want.  If you do not have time to complete this process we will complete it together at your FREE initial consultation.

 

There are four options available for submitting your photos:

  1. Submit electronically via email or mailed cd
  2. Submit prints with permission for me to use in the layouts or album
  3. Submit original prints to be scanned and reprinted (scanning & printing fees apply).  Originals will be returned
    .
  4. Submit duplicate prints with permission for me to use in the layouts or album

Q: How do I pay?
 
A:  Tutt's Scrapbooking accepts cash, money orders, and credit cards.  
Q: What is acid and lignin-free?
 
A: Acid-free paper is paper that has a neutral or basic pH (7 or greater), although paper having a pH between 6 and 7
is often also considered acid-free. During production, it is treated with a mild base to neutralize the natural acids
occurring in wood pulp, and it may also be buffered to prevent the formation of additional acids (as may develop from
the application of sizing.)

 

Acid-free paper is often used in books and other paper products intended to last for a long time. Paper that

has not had its acidity neutralized such as newsprint quickly yellows and deteriorates.

 

Lignin makes up about one-quarter to one-third of the dry mass of wood and is an integral part of the cell walls.  Cheaper papers (such as newsprint) have a high lignin content which causes the paper to discolor over time.  This is a result of the lignin causing acid to reform within the paper fibers.  Lignin can be removed during

the manufacturing process to ensure that the scrapbooking paper remains acid-free for a long time.
