Essentially, scrapbooking ideas mostly come from choosing a theme. A theme can help you to make sense of the pages you want to put in to your scrapbook, the order you want to place them in and even the colors that are appropriate for your theme. Those are good reasons to choose a theme. But another important reason for choosing a theme is that a theme can serve to inspire you and give you new and interesting for scrapbook page ideas and items to add to your scrapbook.
Let's consider some scrapbook ideas or themes. As you examine some of these and their descriptions imagine what you might posses to support that particular theme. What artifacts you may have. What photographs you already have that can start filling out pages of life memories.
Themes are often approached with a combination of characters and concepts. Maybe you want to make an album about the life of aunt Jane. What were her favorite colors? What were her favorite flowers? What this does is wraps the personality of the person into your scrapbook.
So think about a particular person and make an album just about that person. Thus, the theme would be their life events, their experiences, their thoughts about those experiences, what feelings they had at the time, what milestones were reached. You could do an album of chronological events within that person's life time, or highlight a particular time they had.
I will add more to these theme concepts soon. But this will at least get you started. Think in terms of themes and strategies to work out those themes. In turn, those themes and strategies combined will lead the most interesting, personalized scrapbook page ideas you can image. And it is within those wonderful pages that hold and stores profound life memories.
