Vacation is the perfect reason to add more pages to your scrapbook. The locations vary, so the backgrounds can be bright, colorful, and interesting.
Embellish with coordinating items, for example beach scenes with shells or flip flops, or ski lodge scenes with skis and poles or snow flakes or lake sites with fishing gear. BBQ pictures lend themselves to grills, food, and picnic items. The internet and craft stores offer an overwhelming amount of stickers and miniatures for every event imaginable. Use just enough to balance the page, but don't overwhelm the pictures with too much stuff. The focus should be on your memories, not the decorations.
- Include page titles and explanations; be certain to identify the location; consider including a map.
- Date the event, this prevents trying to remember later.
- Identify who is in the picture and what they are doing or why something is happening.
- Include memorabilia such as ticket stubs, flyers, postcards, advertisements, coasters, and brochures.
- Journal a brief description of an interesting fact about the site.
- Include any adventures or funny things that happened while you were there. Make it personal, so that in years to come, when you look back on this, you will vividly recall this vacation.
