How to make a scrapbook cover by yourself?

I'm planning on making a scrapbook (and I don't intend to buy one) but what can I use to make the scrapbook cover? Please don't say wood or leather, because I don't have any of those!

1. Get some Chipboard. You can paint it or ink it or cover it in paper.
2. nice question.... there r plenty of ways: 1) u can have a nice sheet on the cover and splash sum paint on it....it looks really nice! 2) u can cutout different alphabets from magazines to give it a more scrapbooky effect... 3) u can use ribbonss... or cut out small pieces from different coloured patterened papers and create a collage or a mosaic... 4) if u want to create it onlyn and print it then go to: www.scrapblog.com its a really kewl website!!! hope this helps!! :D
3. You can take cardboard (maybe several layers of cereal box cardboard glued together) and cover completely with fabric. You can use spray adhesive, or buy fabric/felt/etc. with adhesive already on it. Make sure to make the cover bigger than the pages you plan to use to fill it!
4. Well you can, * splash different colors of paint all over the book. *or you can cut your favorite celebreties, singers, authors, or illustrators and stick in a messy place. *or you can cut your pictures, family picture, class pictures, friends etc.. and stick it. *get a piece of old cloth, like jeans and cut it and staple it to the copy book from down and add little flowers or stuff the pops, or u can put it plain. *or get a news paper cut it in different sizes and stick it. Hope i helped honey :)
