Return To Scrapbooking Article Archive   Search the Article Archives Scrapbooking Love By Vera Raposo Creating a love or relationship album for that special someone in your life gives you the chance to display those wonderful memories of your life together. How many photos and keepsakes you have can help determine the size, themes and layout of your scrapbooking love album. While any size album will do, a smaller accordion style album can create a more intimate feeling. Journaling in a scrapbooking love album brings your memories to life. Your statements can be as simple as a few words or more complex with a special poem, quote or song lyrics. When journaling, you can recall a memory in a photo or relive a special moment. Colors also play an important role in creating that warm and personal feeling. Instead of the usual red or pink, many people are choosing softer colors like pale blue and cream or gold and silver. Charms in these colors make nice additions to your page as well. Topics for your love album could include 'A History of Our Relationship' or '10 Things I Love About You.' Topics can also center on the memorabilia you might have. Show off your unique items such as love letters, cards, dried flowers, restaurant menu or concert tickets. Your album could center on relationship milestones. You can describe your first date or your first kiss. Or create a list of questions for both of you to answer in your own handwriting or in a computer layout. Your questions could include: favorite foods, future goals, traditions, pet peeves, favorite pastimes and things you agree or disagree on. Another project for the two of you could be writing a letter to each other, seal them and paste onto your scrapbook page. When you present your scrapbooking love album on a special date or occasion, you can then open your letters to each other.
