I choose the gold and white polka dot version and have absolutely no regrets! Though I am not currently scrapbooking, I have some oversized charts that needed a home and the protection of a clear inserts, so this option was perfect for me. This album has staying power as it is well-made with beautiful details like the little caps on the edges to protect the corners, stitching across the cover and little space for the label on the spine. Sometimes an album is not as attractive as its contents, but this is definitely the exception!
