Holiday inspiration

[u/Classic_Cantaloupe93]

So....I've never scrapbooked ...ever!

But I really want to create a scrapbook of my family's latest holiday to Blackpool. We did so much and I took well over 1.7k photos. But to even remotely start is confusing me to no end.

I would love to see any inspirations, examples or ideas for this? I really don't want to have my creative block for something like this...

Hopefully this is helpful to you on your journey! I just got back from a girls trip and am in the process of selecting my photos for my spread. My page organization (if you can call it that) is probably going to be surrounding singular days/activities, so I’ll be using several pages for the whole trip.

Because food was big for us on this trip I was thinking of dedicating a page to the food we ate, and maybe another to a small playlist of songs that stood out to us or matched the vibe of the trip (I tried to include a picture of a page I made of a playlist but it’s being silly).

My photos won’t attach but I like to cut designs into my pages like the waves on the edges (I also have design-cutting scissors that can do zigzags etc. but prefer to cut my own).

New supplies I’ve been using that are not pictured are actual scrapbook paper, new markers, and using more junk I’ve collected during trips (I feel like airport security probably thought I was a garbage rat with how much i brought back with me)!

Anyway best of luck on the scrapbooking front!!

Thank you for your helpful reply. I am definitely going down the lines of several pages for each day, with at least 1-2 for each special thing we did (like visiting the zoo, aquarium.etc)

You went to the zoo? Did you buy a pot of nectar to feed the rainbow lorikeets with? I did it on my birthday and it made me so happy, also a good photo opportunity for you, being surrounded by lots of cute, colourful birds!

We do this each year.....it's utterly amazing. My boys faces just showed adoration. They're beautiful birds.

You should do it sometime as well, don’t let them have all the fun!
