Scrapbook Themes

The themes of your scrapbook can be simple or complex. Scrapbook themes could be a special events such as a birthday, a baby shower, wedding, Christmas, or Halloween.

Scrapbook themes can also be personalized to the scrapbook recipient's special interests.

Special interests themes include favorite colors, pets, sports, favorite television programs, music, the outdoors, or cultural influences.

What is the overall purpose for your scrapbook?

Who is the scrapbook for?

Who is the scrapbook about?

The answers to these three questions are all factors in selecting an appropriate theme.

For instance, the scrapbook you are giving your nephew as he graduates from medical school is probably completely different than the grandparent book you send your mother.

Your nephew will probably appreciate a scrapbook with photographs, poems, journals, and more masculine embellishments. Perhaps, the theme of the scrapbook could be medicine.

You could create embellishmentsthat looks like scalpels and tweezers around various pictures of your nephew during his medical college years.

Your mother, on the other hand, will love a multitude of baby pictures fancifully embellished with flowers, ribbons, and baby fingerprints. The theme of this book will probably be your baby. Photographs could include baby and grandma with the baby. A nice journal about your baby's day could also add a nice touch.
