I need scrapbooking help!?

Question

Okay, i am making a scrapbook for my boyfriend and I 1 year anniversary... What should i put in it...? I am printing out photos, but what materials should i use, and what would each page be about?

Answer 1

I made the same thing for my -now- husband, and it was like a storybook, I even made the whole book from sctrach with cardboard and color pages, instead of using a blank scrapbook.  It started something like "Once upon a time my life was black and white (and that page was all b&W) and then you came and turned it to color (that page was full of colorful pics and drawings).  I also included a "soundtrack" with the lyrics of our special songs, a page with "52 reasons I love you" (one 4 each week) and at the end wrote: "I´ll not say they lived happily ever after, cause this story is just beginning..."

Answer 2

Anything you have done together, movie tickets , pressed flowers , Napkins form your favorite restaurant . Good Luck ;)))

Answer 3

You could print out the lyrics to your favorite songs and use them on a page layout of you two dancing

Start from the beginning of the relationship and use a line from "your song" on each page ( I have seen this somewhere, it was really sweet and it looked pretty simple)

Any kind of funny inside jokes, trinkets, things you've held on to etc.

I would keep it simple and focus on the photos and journaling.

Answer 4

I have been married a year and a half and I do a book for each year- a couple of pages per month for the months that I have photos or other stuff to put in (new years eve hats, valentines cards, my mother's day card from our dog, Cardinal tickets).  I use matching theme paper for the background for each page.  Make sure that the front page is your title page, maybe include the dates it covers.  :)

Answer 5

how you met, first date, make a blank page for how you celebrate your 1 year anniversary.  take pics that day and if you go anywhere like to dinner get something to put in the scrap book... i have neat little things like matchbooks, napkins, and coasters from restaurants.

if you have any little mementos, like movie ticket stubs.  obviously, lots of photos.  maybe write a little poem on a page with a photo of you two or a special place that you like to go together.  

HAVE FUN!
