Side by Side Comparison of: Die Cuts vs SiCoHome

Love this scrap book. For any disney or fairytale lovers this is the one for you. Theres even a once upon a time paper set. It fits alot of pages and is super cute. Holds up well and not flimsy at all.

Good, and its not busy looking. It is good to me bc the focus should be on the pictures we put into the book. Not the back ground. I would get another one of these.

This was given as a gift to my sister. She and her fiancé are going to use it for their Disney Themed wedding for the guests to sign. It was perfect!

It's beautiful! The glittery "Once Upon a Time" on the front and "Happily Ever After" on the back were a very nice touch. It's an autumy look and it's beautiful! I got it for my husband for our first Valentine's day as a married couple. I made the scrapbook a little story of how we met, fell in love, and all of that cheesey stuff. I cut some of the screen protectors in there to put my personal touch, I glued on some envelopes to my own scrapbook stationary and put some of our love letters in there and a little slice to the screen protector made it easy for my husband to pull them out and read them again. I mostly got this because my husband and I are huge fans of the show Once Upon A Time on ABC, this scrapbook is similar to the storybook in the show. It was a surprise present for my husband (that I put weeks and weeks into creating), but he absolutely loved it! I was glad it didn't come in pages, I bought even specific ones and it really personalized the album.

I actually bought this to use for an English class project, since my class had to create "memory books". This is a beautiful post-bound scrapbook album that comes with ten page-protectors. I'm a bit of a scrapbooking enthusiast, and this is, by far, my favorite album.The scrapbook actually comes with an outside clear plastic covering, which really helps protect it from damage to the outside cover. The cover itself is very nice as well, and the gold glitter lettering is striking.I would highly recommend this product if you're debating on whether or not to get it. You won't regret this purchase.

I love to scrapbook and when i saw this album i just fell in love with it! I'm using it to scrapbook my wedding! the album isnt like the other albums i normally use (the ones with the picture insert on the front) wanted something different and boy is it!! this album is thicker and so classie looking! the writing (on both sides) does have gold gitter on them but it does NOT rub off!!!! i was afraid that it would. the back says "And they live happily ever after" which is soooo cute for a wedding srapbook! im so happy to buy this and cant wait till its finished to show off to friends and family!

Not as pretty of a cover as I would like, but that's so subjective. I definitely wanted the black pages (SO much more dramatic, and metallic pen writing looks good!). This comes with a bronze colored pen, which is a nice add-on. A finer-tipped pen would be better for writing notes on your adventures. This size gives you a lot more flexibility to make arrangements and add stickers and other fun stuff.

This also comes with photo corners. They're colored, not clear, which would have been my preference, but it's still nice that you have everything you need to get started.

Overall I liked this album and it even exceeded my expectations. It's thick and sturdy. I only wish rings were a little smaller but I don't know how practical that would be. And obviously not enough stuckers. Although some of them are useless for me.

On one page I can fit two 4×6 photos. Metallic pen (brown color) seems to work fine. Little triangular colorful and black pockets are included, hope they can hold photos. If they don't I was planning on using glue anyway.

As not a very demanding person - I really liked it.

This is my second book of this type from SiCoHome. I bought the first for a photo/memory book for a European 4-week trip, and loved it so much that I decided to buy another to have on hand for the next opportunity. It is easy to use and classy in appearance. This time I bought the 10x10 instead of the 7x10, to give more room to write or post things around two 4x6 photos on each page.

The scrap/photo book arrived in the time frame promised, in perfect condition. It's a nice design, the cover is thick & sturdy. It came in a box, which was great for protecting it and also storage while I'm working on putting it together. The stickers that were included in the kit are really cute. It's easy to put together to create a personalized book design. I really like that the pages come with plastic slip covers to keep them in tact. It's a really nice product & a great gift if you're looking to give someone something special.

Firstly let me say YOU HAVE TO PUT THE SCRAP BOOK TOGETHER. It comes apart and with the rings. I don't know if anybody else's did but mine didn't come assembled. I read no where, where you had to do that. But it's easy to put together. Nice book very sturdy. but I don't know why it comes not assembled.

could have been more there

the scrap book is amazing! i love it the size of it was bigger than i expected witch was a plesent surprise to me! i love this book!! the only thing i have to complain bout is the shipping and handlig the edge of the book was dented and the ten plastic pages were very creased because of the maner the book was cared for i hope when i fill that plastic pages the folds will go away, i might have to use an extra stiff scrap paper for them. other than that i can honestly say this ablum/scrap book exceeded my expectations :)

I never used it, but it's definitely adorable and very good quality.

I bought this for a future project and it is beautiful. I also bought extra fillers ,however can figure out how to add them to this book. That being said, I'm not disappointed at all with the books style or quality.

Items arrived as described, they are very lovely albums, & had very speedy delivery!My only complaint is that I just ordered 2 of them a week ago for about $16 each ($32 & change for both), & now they're marked down to $9 a piece - drat!!! Really wish I had waited now... :/

This matches nicely with the paper stack that I bought i.e. Diecuts with a View - Once upon a time paper stack with glitter. The product is sturdy and durable. The embossed lettering on the front with glitter is beautiful. My daughter loved it.

This is a cool little scrapbook. It comes in pieces which is nice for putting your book together for you can work on each page individually. Easy to put this book together and add more pages.

I bought this to use as a scrapbook, but replaced it with a traditional one as the pages were not big enough for my needs. The 3 ring binder makes it sort of difficult to maneuver.

Very nice. I give 4 stars, however, because of the indent damage on my scrapbook. While it's minor, I prefer no damage to a cover the day I get it.

Just like picture and pages are big enough for several pics! The only downfall is you can't buy refill pages anywhere in this size.

Perfect book to be able cut out your own photos however you'd like, glue or tape them the black pages, and even add writing if you'd like! We gave this to my girlfriend on her wedding day. We took photos, cut them out, and each added our own little phrases and insights.

Its kind of like a scrapbook without all the work. There were many more pages than I thought and I was able to include more photos than I thought I would be.

Wish the pages actually came with this! I was a little mislead.. :(

Beautiful look but feels like it's going to rip down the spine when I open it. Not as many pages as I would have liked but overall a great book.

I was disappointed that there was not more pages it does not appear to have the ability to add more.

Doesn't come with the acid free paper as stated in the description. I will keep it as I already have some I bought prior but I'm unhappy that once again the description doesn't match the actual product

This had very few pages of plastic in it. The cover is very nice, which is why i bought it, since i thought my wife would like it and she does. But be sure and buy a lot of plastic pages for your photos. If you have many photos you might need two of these.

the album was ok too bad in the inside there were markings of some kind of ink....I wish I could change it.

good

I was expecting the pretty light colored photo album in the picture but the one I received was very dark I am not a fan of the dark color!

I think a sturdier binding would be better and not hard plastic pages

The cover looks like cardboard, the picture was deceiving that is posted as the product.

I received this and it had like 4 dimple marks that were on the front of binder. Not really that noticeable, but when I purchase something brand new that's what I expect.

I am very disappointed with this album after reading all the rave reviews. It looks cheap, the plastic cover protector is cracked on the corners and scratched, it looks ugly. The internal top loading plastic pages are cloudy and creased, I will not be using those, so will have to replace them with another brand.

The clear pages did not have the white page inserts inside. Never have bought an album that did not have that. Luckily i had also ordered the 12 x 12 scrapbook pages and they had it, so I just used those.

I ordered this because I wanted to make a scrapbook for my pet memorial. Since it says "Once upon a time", I was thinking maybe I could make it like a story. However, upon arrival, I found out on the back it says "Happily ever after". I guess it still works as he is happy at the Rainbow Bridge. Sadly though, the item itself arrived with some damages and now waiting for replacement to come.....

The inserts do not fit with the ones I bought but it's nice!

Not what I was hoping for made cheap

Online shopping is great, but the detail you cannot see in person you tend to fill in with your mind the way you would want it to be. This is okay looking in person, but it seems more like kids' art work scrapbook quality, than the family heirloom scrapbook coffee table item I was hoping for... Not horrible, but does not look as good in person. The tones are not as rich as my monitor display and the colors are brighter in person (less aged looking).

Unfortunately the album comes with the rings in a separate bag that is packed tightly to the album and puts dents in the cover. I would not recommend as a present.

Not much to brag about

Eh. Not what I was expecting. It's small and was missing the binding rings. I like the cover so I'll give it two stars but it wont work for what I need.

Not what I expected.

what part of this is photo album? Scrapbook yes, Photo Album no. They could use some of the sticky paper and such for photos. A huge let down

It's a cute album but it is not what I wanted. I thought I was ordering a real, honest to goodness, scrapbook with paper pages. I was hoping that I could use it for my daughters wedding photos. She had a magical Disney wedding and this would have been the perfect cover and back for my set of wedding pictures. I did not realize it would be clear, plastic pages that you would need paper to mount a picture and then slide into the sleeve.Not what I wanted and cannot imagine how you would use it for very expensive wedding photos. It's a big disappointment for me.

Not what I expected

I"m really trying to ask a question ! It only comes with page protectors in it and I wanted to use it for a photo album. So what in heck do I use for plain ol' paper to glue the photos on ? I don't want fancy schmancy glitter, fairy , decorated paper- just plain ! where do I find that ? Thank you !

dimentions are too large.

not what I expected

This item came damaged. I reported it via email and I was told to keep it. Very good that I didn't have to mail it back.

This is the worst scrapbooks I have ever purchased. It took me forever to put it together because the rings roll around the entire album and it was a real joke putting it together. I am very disappointed

The cover is an ugly brown, not the beautiful color show on here!.. It will be going back! DONT ADVERTISE SOMETHING YOU DONT HAVE!

Not at all what I wanted...returned it.

Product is flimsy book and is not quality. I can't see the pages supporting scrapbooking media, so I use it to journal.

The pictures WON'T be protected! They need a plastic covering.

What I received was nothing like the picture. It is a different size and instead of saying "i miss . . . " on the front as in the picture, it says "Love You Forever." Considering that this was meant to be given to an outgoing professor, this is wildly inappropriate.
