If you’re looking for a fun way to capture your memories and bring out the creative side of you, scrapbooking may be just what you need. Whether you’re creating a scrapbook to keep for yourself or as a gift to share with your friends and family, this art form is a great way to document your life and leave a lasting legacy for the generations to come.
The Basics
Before you start, think about the reason for creating your scrapbook. Is there a specific holiday or milestone you’d like to commemorate? Or are you simply looking to satisfy your creative side and get out of your comfort zone?
Gather All the Memorabilia
When putting together your scrapbook, don’t forget to include all the photos, cards and memorabilia that tell your story. Having these materials organized based on your theme will help you create consistent layouts throughout your scrapbook and save you time and effort in the long run.
Make a List of Your Stories
Once you have all the photos, cards and memorabilia grouped according to your stories, write down the details and key moments that you want to highlight. Depending on your theme, this may include everything from the date of the event to the number of guests.
Organize Your Papers
Once the photos, memorabilia and writings are in place, choose a background paper and add embellishments to create a cohesive look. Consider a double-mat for your main photo and a group mat for any supporting photos.
