Creating Spectacular Scrapbooks With Memorabilia
By Vera Raposo
Memorabilia comes in many forms and including it in your scrapbooks is
a great way to make memories come to life. People make scrapbooks for
many reasons.
Gifts for loved ones, special occasions, children's
photos and artwork, and special times in our lives are just a few of the
possible themes for a scrapbook. The use of various memorabilia can turn
your scrapbook into a personal, spectacular way to remember the events
that are important to our lives.
Scrapbooks that center around our children's lives and experiences are
among the most popular themes. Memorabilia from the lives of your
children can include school photos, mementos from field trips, birthday
card invitations, and various artworks they have created through the
years.
You might want to include photos and emblems of a favorite sport or
team, team rosters from sports in which your child participated,
programs from band or choral performances, or items collected during a
vacation or trip to summer camp.
Time spent with friends is always a fond
memory and a great addition to any scrapbook. Party favors from
birthdays, pictures of the family pet, and reminders of a special talent or
favorite cartoon character are special memories that your child will
cherish.
Another great idea for using memorabilia is to include pictures from
office parties, high school graduation announcements, concert and
sporting event ticket stubs, and invitations to weddings or special parties.
A simple online search can give you photos and news items from the day
a person was born and can make interesting additions to a scrapbook.
You could include the prices of various items, news events from that
day, and popular movies and songs from the era.
Using various forms of memorabilia can make your scrapbook a spectacular remembrance of a person's life or a wonderful tribute to the events that make our lives unique.
