Military Scrapbooking Guide
by Luke Walton
Scrapbooking is all about what is pleasing to the individual eye, and what works for one person's photos.No longer is it archiving memories of old relatives and grandparents who served in the Vietnam or Korean War. It is about our young men and women who live far away from their families in war torn lands like Afghanistan and Iraq.
First, crop your pictures to the desired size. This job is much easier with the help of a template of assorted shapes and sizes. Military scrapbooking can include letters or emails your navy seal sent to you days before he was missing in action, his badge or special photos provided to you by the government when they broke the news. Newspaper articles about another young life lost or pictures of when they were babies can all make beautiful military scrapbooking accents.
For those of us with children, spouses or siblings serving in the Army, Navy or Air Force, we can send them layouts of what is happening at home and make it a way of keeping in touch with members of the military through scrapbooking. Dad would love to know what his children wore and got on Christmas even if he is thousands of miles away.
These papers generally come in a 12x12-inch size for larger albums, and an 8x11-inch size for smaller ones.Hand made cards and notes, report cards from school or certificates from swim or piano lessons can also be made in to scrapbooking pages for military family members.
Fortunately, with the number of pictures you probably need to put into your photo albums, your choices of patterned paper will be plentiful. Happy scrapbooking!Digital scrapbooking has made significant strides and now it is easy, perhaps even easier than actual scrapbooking once you get the hang of it, to make a digital military scrapbooking layout. You can save the page where you left off with no packing up to do. You can just crop the pictures instead cutting with scissors - and still not making a straight line and you can 'adhere' as many embellishments as you like without a drop of glue on your fingers. So, sort your pictures and send a scrapbooking page or card to someone who is serving our country. You have no idea how it will make his or her day!
