How to Scrapbook Your Summer Adventures
1. Choose Your Album
Start with a Creative Memories album that fits your style. For summer, consider a bold color like turquoise, yellow, or bright pink to represent the vibrancy of the season.
2. Organize Your Photos
Gather all your photos from your phone, camera, and social media. Organize them by:
-
Events (trips, BBQs, pool days)
-
People (family, friends)
-
Themes (sunsets, nature, food)
3. Select Your Paper and Embellishments
Pick papers with summery prints like florals, waves, sunshine, and bright solids. Add stickers, die cuts, and borders with phrases like “Fun in the Sun,” “Summer Vibes,” and “Adventure Awaits.”
4. Tell Your Story
Journaling is key. Write about:
-
Where you went
-
Who you were with
-
Funny moments or mishaps
-
How you felt in those moments
These details bring your pages to life beyond the photos.
5. Create Interactive Pages
Add pockets, flip-ups, or hidden journaling cards for ticket stubs, receipts, or extra photos. It makes your album interactive and more meaningful.
6. Finish with a Reflection Page
End your summer scrapbook with a page reflecting on what this summer meant to you, lessons learned, and what you look forward to next season.
