Scrapbooking Famous Quotes
People are always looking for interesting and unique sayings and verse that they can add to their scrapbook content. Poems,
pieces of songs, stories, and quotes are good places of reference for
these inserts. Famous quotes are easy to find because well, they’re
famous! Have you ever considered writing down all of those old sayings that your mother and father always said over and over to
you? Cataloguing famous quotes is a fun way to do this and it
preserves that memory of the people who said them often to you for the
future.
Sources:
If you have the time, it might be interesting to sit down
and try to research where each quote originated. This will give you
insight in how the famous quotes were coined and will offer you an
amusing story to share with family and friends.
If you don’t have any predefined quotes that you would like to use,
the library is a great place to go and find sayings and famous quotes.
Everyday sayings coined by popular writers, politicians, singers, and
even television stars are good ideas. For any sports fans, sports
related quotes are nice choices. Whatever fits the environment or mood
of your scrapbook.
Insertion:
After you have chosen and compiled your famous quote collection,
you can choose to either interject them into various parts of your
scrapbook or you can even dedicate a small portion of it to the quotes
and maybe some pictures that relate to them either seriously or
humorously.
If you choose to display them in different portions of your
scrapbook, you might want to interlace the theme of the layouts that
you place them into along with the famous quotes rather then trying to
keep a set or defined style. There are many ways to incorporate the
famous quotes with fun pictures taken during everyday life activities
of loved ones without creating an actual theme based on or around the
quotes themselves.
Themes:
Famous quotes can be great inclusions in any themed scrapbook.
Wedding scrapbooks offering traditional quotes or advice are nice
keepsakes. Famous quotes can be used to portray a particular time
period or fashionable lingo at the time of a baby’s birth. You can
usually find popular quotes that fit into almost any subject
matter.
If you have the space and choose to dedicate a page or small portion
of your scrapbook to famous quotes, then you will want to begin the
process (after the quotes are compiled, of course) by sorting through
each quote and assembling them in an order in which will be
humorous and interesting.
Layout:
Once you have a general idea of the order that you would like them, it’s time to consider what type of layout to create to
place them in. The theme or subject your quotes and scrapbook are
based on will influence the best layout ideas. When I think about
famous quotes, I tend to envision something proper or formal in
appearance so it’s a great time to pull out the linen or parchment
paper and practice your calligraphy skills. As I often mention, if you
happen to be a little unsure of your penmanship skills and would
prefer to type your quotes out using a word processing program, you can
always hunt around the internet a calligraphy-style font to use with this project. Keep in mind that typing out your poems will
give you less control over the actual positioning unless you are
fairly familiar with your word processing tool. If you can't decide between writing them by hand or typing them out, you
can always sit down with a spare piece of paper and practice just to
see what type of results you get by writing them yourself. When
attempting to write neatly and formally, the pen type and paper choice
are just as important as the writer’s actual writing abilities.
Remember, it couldn’t hurt anything to give it a try and you might be
pleasantly surprised with your abilities. Good luck!
