Scrapbook Photos of Thanksgiving Day Preparations

Many people take pictures of all of their family at thanksgiving and the decorations, maybe even the finished meal. Cooking a Thanksgiving dinner is quite the undertaking, so snap some shots of the cook as she goes to work. The photos will make a great behind-the-scenes Thanksgiving scrapbook page and make you really appreciate that delicious meal!

Add Bubbles with Bubble Wrap.

Bubble wrap is perfect for packing items and shipping them off. But did you know that it is perfect for Scrapbooking as well!

Create adorable “under the sea” or "bath time" theme layouts by using bubble wrap and a little ink.

Take your desired color of ink and a sheet of bubble wrap, the size of the bubble wrap does not have to be as big as your page you can just re-stamp with it.

Roll ink onto your bubble wrap or just rub your bubble wrap on your ink, this may cause it to go on heavier in some spots. Lay your bubble wrap onto your page and press down firmly.

Lift the bubble wrap off of your page and voila! adorable little bubbles all over.

Cool Tip!

Cut your bubble wrap into circles, all different shapes and sizes.
Ink the circles and press them onto your paper coming out of a bathtub or off of a picture. This will create the same effect without doing it all over the page.

Have Fun!

Include Quotes on Your Scrapbook Pages

Originality is something you should always strive for when creating. You can create original pages with exclusive ideas; this includes journaling on your layouts. This is a perfect way to tell about the photographs and help you remember what was going on during that time.

Quotes for your pages are a wonderful way to add some "elegance" to your page layouts. Famous quotes for your era are fun to have in your books. You can also include quotes from family members about the people in the pictures.

For baby books you can quote your child or record "first words", adorable ways that they would say things and funny phrases.
