My dad and stepmom keep voice messages that my daughter (and their other grandkids) leave for them on their voice mail. They want to be able to hear the small voices from the past once these kids are all grown up. I’ve always loved that idea but haven’t figured out a way to integrate those tiny voices into my scrapbooks. I just discovered something though that sounds (pun intended) pretty cool.

Sound Stripes Kit - $ 39.00
From: Scrapbook.com

Sound Stripes – An innovative way to give your scrapbook pages a voice. It allows you to easily add sounds to your scrapbook page without bulk! Use your kit to record and automatically retrieve up to 30 messages each 20 seconds long. All that goes into your scrapbook are the ultra thin, archival, acid fee Sound Stripes labels. There is no added bulk to your album no matter how many sounds you use. Think of the possibilities! Each Sound Stripes kit contains:

# A palm size digital recorder and reader (Necessary for sound retrieval)
# 30 specially coded labels.

Sound Stripes makes the perfect holiday or end of the year teacher’s gift. Have each of the children in the classroom record a Sound Stripes message that begins: “My favorite thing about Mrs. Smith is…”. Using a mini-scrapbook, adhere a Sound Stripes label on each scrapbook page along with a photo of each child and you have an unforgettable gift for that special teacher!

Do you know a graduating high school senior? Give them the gift that makes their high school yearbook come alive – Sound Stripes! Imagine collecting the memories and stories of your high school years in the voices of those special friends! Once you have collected your memories, the thin Sound Stripes labels can be placed right into your yearbook next to the pictures of your friends. Let Sound Stripes help that special graduate you know create an unforgettable treasure.

I was thinking this would be so fun to do a Friends album and have them record their voices on their pages for me. Or my daughter could do a small album and record her favorite memories of each photo right on the page. It could be done on the First Day of School too. The possibilities are endless!

What would you use Sound Stripes for?
