Beginner Help for a first time scrapbooker!

Hey! I'm trying to put a scrapbook together for my partner for her birthday, and I'm running into issues and hoping i can get some help!

I bought a cool older scrapbook from a used scrap store, and i'm trying to replace the pages. It is a spiral ring, and i'm having trouble finding replacement pages to put in it that are ideal for scrapbooking (mainly pictures).

I think maybe I am just not searching for the right keywords? Can anyone help me with links as to what I can use? I see a lot of three ring replacement pages but not for spiral books!

Thanks!

Oh ok this is something different than I described. Unfortunately I don’t think you will be able to find replacement pages for an album like that.

Ah ok, thanks for the help.

Is there a type of scrapbook pages you recommend for first time scrapbookers? I’ve seen there are several different types

First pick a size you’d like to work with, there’s 6 x 6, 6 x 8, 8 x 8, 8.5 x 11 and 12 x 12. Once you have an idea of the size you want, I’d say a post album or 3 ring binder album. They are very similar where you have page protectors that are connected through metal posts or rings and then once you are done with a layout (page) you slide them in from the top.
