Scrapbooking - Think About Your Theme
When the time comes to start a scrapbook, one thing you need to
consider first is what you want the theme to be. The theme you
choose dictates almost everything about your scrapbooking,
including the content, photos and calligraphy you use.
The theme of your scrapbook can be simple or complex. Your theme
could be a special event such as a birthday, a baby shower, a
wedding, Christmas, or Halloween. Themes can also be
personalized to the scrapbook recipient's special interests.
Special interest themes include favorite colors, sports,
favorite television programs, music, the outdoors, or cultural
influences.
What is the overall purpose for your scrapbook? Who is the
scrapbook for? Who is the scrapbook about?
The answers to these three questions are all factors in
selecting an appropriate theme. For instance, the scrapbook you
are giving your nephew as he graduates from medical school will
be completely different to the grandparent book you send your
mother. Your nephew will probably appreciate a scrapbook with
photographs, poems, journals, and more masculine embellishments.
Perhaps, the theme of the scrapbook could be medicine. You could
create embellishments that look like scalpels and tweezers
around various pictures of your nephew during his college years.
Your mother, on the other hand, will love a multitude of baby
pictures fancifully embellished with flowers, ribbon, and baby
fingerprints. The theme of this book will probably be your baby.
Photographs could
include baby as well as grandma with the baby.
A journal about your baby's day could also add a nice touch.
Don't forget to create a title for your scrapbook page. Though
adding a title might seem to be obvious or unimportant, a title
defines the whole basis of your scrapbook. The title instantly
tells the viewer what your page is all about. In one word or one
short phrase, the title tells the reader the theme and purpose
of your scrapbook.
Color coordination and contrast will also highlight and accent
your scrapbook. A well thought out color scheme can help define
the theme of a page, attract attention to specific items, or
detract away from mistakes. Poorly chosen color schemes, on the
other hand, can cause your scrapbook page to look gaudy or
mismatched.
Most scrapbooks will contain photographs. Even the most
disinterested reader of your scrapbook will glance at the
photographs. Pictures really are worth a thousand words.
Therefore, it is important to choose photographs that are of
good quality and clearly illustrate your scrapbook theme.
By taking some time to think about the theme you want for your
scrapbook, so many other decisions that follow will become a lot
simpler.
