Traditional Scrapbooking

Kids love to show off their artistic prowess and paste in the memories of the fun-filled days. To create a scrapbook, you can either purchase blank pre-made books which are available in craft stores or, if you love creating something from scratch, you can make your own and buy a ring to bind the pages together. There are pre-designed online materials where you can add your photos and print the pages to add to your collection. You can designate a few pages for your friends’ autographs. Other pages can be details of each summer camp adventure, such as hiking, canoeing, or a stunning photo showing your acquired aerial skills. Add in written memories alongside the photos for a personal touch. You can decorate the borders of each page. Drawing on the borders with colorful pens is one technique, although some uses cut-outs to beautify the page edges. Embellishing each page depends on the theme of the page, too. For instance, if a page is dedicated to your wakeboarding adventures, you can add photos of beautiful Lake Temagami or a pic of your wakeboard.
