Question: Is there such a thing as a recordable device for use in scrapbooks? I would love to record a message from our answering machine from the adoption agency the day we learned about our new baby to include in his life book. I thought I had seen such a thing but when I phoned the store where I thought I may have seen it the clerk didn’t know where to find such a thing. Did I just dream it up?
Answer: Nope, you didn’t dream it up! Most places call them sound recording modules. Most of them hold around 10-15 seconds of sound. They are usually about 3/16″ think so you can hide them in a little envelope or under a flap on your page. We sell a few brands of them on our website. One is called “The Memory Button” from Darice. You can record 10 second of sound and it is acid free. The other is from Imagination Project called “Scrapbook Alive” and records the same 10 seconds. Both of them are priced around $6-$8. Another one we carry is “Speaking Up” from Technologies to Remember and records up to 30 seconds.
