Getting Started

I have slowly started assembling my scrapbook over the past two weeks. Originally, I thought I had to have a theme or a topic to scrapbook about, but after I printed out a handful of photos from the past eight months, I quickly realized a theme does not necessarily matter!

At first when I got my materials out, I sort of struggled getting started. I arranged the photos in a million different ways before I decided on an arrangement, and I also refrained from cutting any photos in case I ruined them. I guess it’s the perfectionist in me! However, I eventually got over that and decided to play around with the photos and arrangements.

The first page I scrapbooked about was Great Central Lake, the lake I spent all of my summers growing up. A few pictures are from a couple summers ago, and some are from this past 2025 summer. I really enjoyed reminiscing on last summer, and seeing my memories laid out on a page.
