An Ambitious Idea

Of Note: I have never scrapbooked.
...but I am video calling into my D&D game. And the DM has sent 'stuff' for the game. Letters my character has received, copies of the clues the other players have at the table, etc. I don't want to trash them, but other than putting together some sort of scrap book, I can't think of a way to keep them tidy. It might also be a cool/fun thing to have at the end to share with the rest of the group.
But I don't know where to start? Hit up my local Joanne's or Michaels? Please don't say pinterest, I still do not understand pinterest.
Buy a scrapbook and some sleeve-things and go nuts? My handwriting is legible and that's the best thing one can say about it; trying to make pretty labels for things is a lost cause.
This idea may be too much for me.

If you remember what happened in each session, you might be able to "journal" it from the point of view of your character. Or it might be just a record of how things went and what was used, without necessarily needing to make it seem like something your character was writing.
It's probably a good idea to think about what you'd like your project to be before you start. It's okay to just keep everything together and spend some time thinking it out and watching videos for ideas or looking at people's blogs. It's okay to start slow and build over time. This can be a lot, but it doesn't have to be. It's about making something you like, giving yourself a chance to learn new skills, and enjoying the process as much as possible.
