How much should I charge to make a scrapbook?

So a friend of mine had a baby and I made a scrapbook of her daughter's first year and gave it to her on her daughter's birthday.
Well, now my friend's mother asks me if I can make two scrapbooks based on my friend and her sister's basketball careers in college (pictures, newspaper clippings, programs...)
She said she would pay me for supplies and for making them, but asked me how much that would all be. It took so long to make the first one for the baby and I'm wondering how much I should charge for the next 2? And, how much $ should go toward supplies?

Does anyone know what is a good price to charge for making a scrapbook? I don't want to overcharge her, but I don't want to put all that work into it for a small amount of money. Although the family are friends of mine, it takes up WAY too much time for that.

I would say at least $15-$20 for a double page layout. That would include the supplies and the book/page protectors.

Wow I was going to say a lot more ... I was going to say 40 per album! BUT materials are expensive and it takes a long time to do.

I think I like that idea. If I use 9 double page layouts (because that is what the books I usually buy have) that would be $135 - $180 per book including supplies. That sounds good to me. Maybe I'll just charge $150 each to make it even.
