Go to the newsagent and get yourself a magazine...that'll give you some ideas. Or google scrapbooking and be amazed at some of the site that come up and they'll give you some ideas too.

I use a combination of glue (stick and liquid), double sided tape and sticky tabs. You can use what you want, just make sure it's acid free, so your photos don't get damaged.

Lincraft have some cute little girl albums (well ours does) that are pretty reasonably priced. Otherwise there are plenty of online places that have an amazing array, but are sometimes pretty exxie.

Have you got a local scrapbbok shop that does beginners classes? THey're usually pretty helpful too.
