The beauty of making a scrapbook is that you can put everything that you want to remember in one single album. And there is no age limit to make one. If you are thinking, “maybe I am a little old for that”. Well, all I can tell you is that that is not a valid reason at all. If you want to have your own scrapbook album right now, then make one right now. You do not need to be a kid or a teen to do just that. In fact, even married couples are in the trend of scrapbooking, so why not you?
And in accordance to my inviting you to make a scrapbook, I have to at least give you a few tips that I personally learned from my scrapbook adventures as well. First, you should not overdo your designs. The fact that scrapbooks are very open to your artistic capabilities does not mean that you should butcher it with too much design. Make sure that your contents are clear and still very recognizable. Also, try not to use too much glue. One of the bad sides of sticking things to your album is having a lot of glue trails. In some cases, pages even end up being stuck to each other because too much use of glue results to dripping. So if you are going to, let’s say put a photo, you should try to put glue only on the corners of your picture. Do not pour glue all over the back, or you might have some problems afterward.
Making a scrapbook does not need particular skills, all you have to do is be honest with what you are doing. And as for techniques and methods, you will eventually pick them on your own as you go along. None the less, I hope my scrapbook tips have been helpful for your future plans.
