Some would ask," What is the basic set up of a scrap book? How do I start a scrapbook? How do you know what goes into a scrap book? What all can it consist of?" These are a few question we get asked a lot. How, when, what and where? So I hope to help you set up some basic steps to go by. A scrap books foundation is based on theme. Each scrap book holds a different theme. Almost like a phase in life. Does your child play sports? If so you can use sports as the theme. Starting off with, for example, basketball. You can find a good scrap book that is based on that theme. Let the book reflect what the theme is going to share with us on the inside. The next step is to choose your pictures. When you have chosen your pictures, that's when you can start adding and choosing other things. Because your pictures are what makes the page tell the story. You can't make a layout of a page without matching it to it's contents. The next step is to relax and enjoy. The reason for this is because it will reflect in your work. If you like what you are doing, it will show in the pages you create. Be creative, show that you are having fun. Remember that this is your book of love. If you are feeling creative, put it on the page. Let the page reflect what you are feeling when you are looking at that moment in your life. The next step then is to choose the layout of the page. You already have your theme, being basket ball, so choose a basket ball paper layout. It doesn't have to basket balls on the paper, if you don't want it to be. You can choose just a plane page, it's your call. Just remember to make it match the theme and the picture. The next step is to add graphics. The graphics you chose to add is up to you. If you want to say something on the page, now is the time. Say the picture is of your child's first score of the ball game. You can say something like, "He shoots and he scores!", or something along those lines. If the picture says enough and you don't want to say anything, just add a sticker to reflect that theme. The next step is to share your book with the ones you love the most. So that they can see the love that you added on every page. Remember that they have to see you enjoyed creating this book and how it is a special reflection of memories to you. That is the steps to creating a perfect scrapbook. I hope you enjoyed reading the basic steps, and they are helpful to you. So let's go and create a scrapbook using these steps to help along the way. Remember the main step is to enjoy what you are doing. Just sit down, relax and enjoy.
