What kind of scrapbooks have you made?

Hi there. i always make a new scrapbook everytime we go on vacation. it's so neat 2 be able 2 look back @ the memories.
i've made scrapbooks for all the g'parents w/all the grands n them 4 xmas b4 too. they all loved them too. its so fun!

My children are three years, almost two years and 3 months old and I have scrapbooks started for each of them. Although I don't get a lot of time to work in them these days, things will get less hectic as they get older and I'll have more time to scrap. I did a book of my wedding for me, one for my mother, I did one for my sister of her wedding. We have one that I finished of our trip to the Netherlands, and I did two of my trip to Scotland with my sister (one for her and one for me). I've done quite a few miniature ones as gifts to aunts, grandmothers and friends etc. I guess I've never had a reason not to scrapbook. LOL

I had intended to start scrapbooking several years ago for fun. I still have the scrapbook-- as empty as the day I got it.

Maybe, if and when I have children, I will find the motivation to scrapbook for their sakes.

i am currently making some for my 4 nieces for christmas from pictures that i have on my computer. then i will give them some sheets and stickers for christmas and let them add pictures of their friends etc to the pages.

I love that you did the scrapbooks for the graduates. I love scrapbooking, I got into about 3 years ago when me and my s/o met and I moved 1600 miles for us to be together. I made mini-scrapbooks this past year to send to my parents, sister, and youngest daughter, high-lights of 2007, they loved them. Since I knew they would all be together at Christmas, I made each one different, they loved sharing them. I have done an album 12x12, for each year me and my s/o have been together, it's about all I can fit into one album, is one year's worth lol. I have a 12x12 for my dog, and she has a small one (8x8) that I'm working on now. I have 2 albums, one for each of our careers, and I have one that is on-going, 12x12, that is 'keeping in touch across the miles', cards and other things that I get from family. I did an 8x8 album for my trip this past Feb., my daughter treated me to a Weekend Crop Retreat in Virginia Beach, we had a blast. And I'm working on 8x8 albums, these are orders, they are for each individual girl on the softball team that my s/o has helped coach this summer, so far I have 3 orders for them. And I have done several of the chipboard albums, they are really fun to make.

I don't have time or the creativity for a scrapbook.

I have a bunch of photo albums and photos sitting around. I don't know what to do with them, but I figure once I get the time and money. I can learn scrapbooking and then create a really nice one.

I do plan to do one for my son when he gets married and same for my daughter. But I figure I got time they are only 12 and 5 years old. Hehehe. LOL. Thinking to far in advance

yes it is fun watching the kids look through the album and realize all the fun stuff they done as kids.

What is best is they also realize how much you love them that you had to take photos of them doing pretty much everything.

I love taking photos of them doing stuff, I am not a fan of having them pose for the pix.

What a wonderful thing for you to do. I am sure your grandchildren love and will alway cherish the scrapbooks you made them. I have made scrapbooks for my children, our everyday lives, organizations I volunteer for, for my relatives special milestone birthdays (95+ years old), trips I have gone on, and small one with quotes, tag albums for special presents. Everyone has always told me how much they love receiving them, which makes me feel so good. And I know they will always keep them as well.

SO many - 12x12 for my two kids - they each have 4 now. One for my GD - 2 now. A travel one of all the little trips we have been on, a family one for each of my 2 borthers and each of my parents, one for my aunt, a wedding one for my daughter, a personal "my life" one for me and my own life since my kids
