Initial attempt to organize my main scrapbook for genealogy

Last night I went to my first scrap mania session at Archivers.
I spread out and tried to organize my Ancestry dot com scrapbook.  First the fight to alter the cover on the book.  The page that a picture and family name goes on was glued to the edges and I had to fight it for about 15 minutes.  Once I got it out I had to trim two sides to get it back into the cover.  I now have the name on and have to choose a picture for the cover.
I had purchased two Ancestry dot com identical pads of paper.  I proceeded to remove all the pages and put the duplicates together.  Then I started sorting the other identical purchases I had made.  This will make it easier to identify what I have and what I need.
Archivers had a page the FAMILY in the lower left hand corner.  It would have worked perfectly for the family group sheets, but with as many families in my genealogy I would need to purchase hundreds of pages.  TOO MUCH $$$.
Will  post more later.
Have a blessed day.
