Scrapbooking Love Quotes
February is the month of love, of course. Valentines and candy have
always been associated with poems and love quotes. This year, make it
personal by using your own love quotes and thoughts as a part of the
layout in your Valentine’s section of your scrapbook. Experiencing a
little writer’s block? You don’t have to write your own! There’s a lot
of material on websites, in books, cards, and many other places (even
candy!) that is great for substituting for your own quotes.
Sources:
Are you feeling brave and the need to be more involved in the writing of
the quotes? Try having your family and friends create their own love
quotes this year! They can be made up from two words, or twenty! Keep
a special collection box (maybe even a decorated shoebox) in a place
that is easily accessible to all of your family members for them to
drop them in as they are written.
Family Valentines themes are often the most fun. Love quotes from
family can be especially endearing and at times, even humorous.
Depending upon the length of your valentines, you can use a number of
designs when including the quotes in your page layout. If your family
is really involved, and enjoy taking part in scrapbooking, you might
even ask each one of them to create a valentine with their love quote
written on it to be included on the page with the others.
Do you have older children who are not so enthusiastic
or involved? Try cutting out heart shapes and write the verses into them. Then
fold them in half and paste one side to the scrapbook page. Once the
scrapbook has been closed for a considerable amount of time, the
hearts will stay closed after the book has been opened to that page.
Events:
Many weddings are planned during the month of February (wonder
why!). A special way to preserve love quotes from sweethearts
during this time is for each to sit down and write the other a love
letter. Once the letters have been written, a very delicate and
sentimental way of including them in the design of the scrapbook page
could be placing each letter into an envelope and wax-sealing them
(before the other is allowed to read it) and pasting the envelope into
an already prepared scrapbook page. In the future, you can designate a
specific time (an anniversary or special occasion) when you will
both break the seals and open and read your letters. How romantic!
Planning a Valentines feature in your work scrapbook? Pair up male
and female employees who would like to be involved and have them write
short love quotes or a funny note about one another. Collect them, and
create ‘sweethearts’ by cutting out pairs of adjoined heart-shaped
candy pieces and writing each other’s love quotes and thoughts about
the other and writing their names at the bottom. Be sure to display
them at the next year’s party so everyone can poke fun at the
previous year’s sweethearts. If you have access to a Polaroid camera
and can take snapshots of them, you can include sweetheart mug shots in
your designs.
The basic rules of scrapbook composition during the month of
February are the same as they are throughout the rest of the year;
always keep in mind that the layout and designs you use in the
scrapbook are going to be a part of the memories that you cherish
forever. If you have further insight or ideas concerning to makeup of
your own scrapbook pages, go with your feelings. Any form of
scrapbooking is a good one. The designs are not made to overwhelm the
pictures and pieces of memories in the book, but to compliment them!
The most important thing to remember is to have fun!
