im making a scrapbook for a friend of mine thats moving to another state and i was wondering if you had any ideas of what kind of things i could put in there like themes of a page.

for example on one page we're all going to write how we met her. just stuff like that.

my friends and i already bought supplies and we have 70 pages to fill out and we already have a lot of ideas, but they wont fill up every page.

so i was wondering if you guys had anymore ideas.

why dont you have like a page for just pictures? and then a page of places you guys have been too and just some random memories.
pickles18
ooh the places where we've been is a good idea! i already have the other two though laugh.gif

Are you talking about decorations? Polka-dots are always fun.
pickles18
oh no im talking about the theme.

like what the whole page should be about.

Oh okay, um.. how about a "Trip" page for all the pictures you have of you and your friends going on trips together. You could do one for each trip.

Haha, sorry, that's all I can think of.

I love scrapbooks!

Do a page all about her, and a separate page for each friend who is making it for her.

On another page, dedicate it to special places that you guys have shared like the movies, a favorite store, a memory-filled park, a restaurant, etc.

If you have movie stubs, that would be a cute thing to glue in.
All little things that you have from each other like smashed flowers, etc. always go well.

Have each person write a letter to her and use up a few pages for those.
Write one of those letter poems, where you use the letters of her name to think of adjectives or whatever.
Cut out pictures from magazines or lines from a favorite poem / book.

you could use a page or a couple of pages and design it with things that remind you of inside jokes between all of you guys? shrug.gif

Yea they always make things brighten up and look happy!

Maybe on one of the last pages you could have pictures and descriptions in the process of making the scrapbook. You can also add a page where you can add all your contact info (in case if your friend loses your info) -- Then maybe like 5 years later, she can look back on it and decide to call you or meet up!

Add little funny random captions (kind of like the caption contest in the Pictures forum)... maybe?

Hm one page could be a false advertisement for the Missing Insert Friend's Name Here Club.
Another could be a silly poem listing all the reasons you'd miss her.
