Seasonal pages can mean either the four seasons—spring, summer, fall, and winter—or they can be seasonal holidays, such as Christmas, Easter, Thanksgiving, Independence Day, Halloween, New Year's Eve, Veteran's Day, and Valentine's Day.
Colorful backgrounds enhance the photographs. There is an almost unlimited selection of holiday themed papers available. Many come with coordinating embellishments. Feel free to mix these up a bit. Don't feel limited in what that manufacturer has packaged. Personalize it.
Some scrapbooking pages are imprinted with phrases appropriate to many occasions. They are a subtle way to include wording, without adding another item to the page.
If you are doing sequential pictures on a page, such as a series of Halloween pictures through childhood, be sure to identify what age each picture represents.
