- Begin with a sheet of pastel colored card stock for your scrapbook page.  Find a few photos that go well together.

- For extra pop, cut frames or borders for the pictures in different colors.  Use an acid-free adhesive to attach the frames to the card stock page. 

- Use photo mount squares to attach the photos.  These squares will allow you to remove the photos in the future if you decide to do something else with them.

- Add hand-written captions for the photos.  There are lots of customized letters out there to apply to scrapbook pages, but nothing beats the personal touch of  your own hand writing.

- Decorate with stickers.  That’s one page done, and you’re ready for the next one!

A friend of mine (with 6 children) recently remarked that when her children were small, she found herself telling them to leave her alone so she could scrapbook.  She didn’t like how that felt, so she put aside the scrapbooks.  Now that her kids are in high school, she has a little more time and she’s gone back to scrapbooking.  It’s never too late!
