Salut.

I am looking for papers that would allow a guy to show his scrapbook/dvd of body building. The pictures are (drool) but I think he would like to have a memory book of the journey. Most of the kits that I see are girly girly. Any ideas?

Try Shabby Princess - http://www.shabbyprincess.com/ - she has some nice ones like Dinner Party, Urban Kiwi, Shabby Fall or Moody Blues which would be good for men too. They are on her freebie page - http://www.shabbyprincess.com/downloads.asp.

She has nice stuff, period!

Hi

i can't comment on any "packages" but why not use a metal plate type of background or some heavy grunge type effect.
An industrial type of look would be a good way to go... imho:D

Hello,

You can also try scrapgirls.com, they have some great kits!
How do you plan putting the book together? Did you know that there are ways to upload the pages you create with photoshop into a book online and they send you the book it is hard bound and the pages are glossy and stitched so they will last forever. They also archive your book incase you needed a second copy or heaven forbid it was damaged or lost. It is so easier than printing and putting in page protectors. You can check out the website www.bindmymemories.com. Hope this helps :-)

For getting books printed you can't beat the price/quality of www.viovio.com

I agree with Gary - some heavy metal and/or grunge would be a good background. If you are working with PSE5 some of those are available with the program.

ShabbyPrincess had a couple of masculine kits in their sample (free) section.

I would also recommend you go (1) Scrapbook-Elements (2) ScrapGirls & (3) DigitalScrapbookPlace & do a search for "masculine"
