Simplified Scrapbooking

Well, we’re just gonna keep them coming! Thats right, when you go to make you christmas scrapbooking cards this year, you’ll have so many different ideas, you wont know which to pick! So, if you’re new here, or new to scrapbooking, why would anyone want to go down the route of scrapbooking christmas cards? Well, and this is probably the most important, is that it allows you to put your own touch on your families christmas card. Why would you want to do that you say, and go through all the trouble of scrapbooking your christmas card when you could just go down to some place, have your family picture taken, then stamped onto another typical looking christmas card? I think I made my point in that sarcastic question. Those kind of christmas cards are boring! Making your own scrapbooking christmas card will make your holiday greeting card stand out above the rest.

This idea for scrapbooking christmas cards is to make it into a journal! You’ll want to pick a week or maybe a stretch of 10 days, maybe the first week or 10 days in december. Then, record all the crazy or wacky happenings, and if you have kids you know what I mean. Just keep that journal up to date and take photos along the way. Photos on your holiday greeting card make it extra special, and as the saying goes, a picture is worth a thousand words! And if your taking digital photos, then you can just upload them onto your computer and then paste them onto your christmas scrapbooking card. The cool thing about doing your christmas scrapbooking card digitially is that you can cut your pictures on the computer into cool christmas designs, like christmas trees and christmas ornaments.

Journaling for this years christmas scrapbook card will also serve another purpose. You can keep family and friends who you dont see very often informed on all the newest and latest happenings! If you are dreading making a phone call, just send your holiday greeting card with all the news and photos of your family! Who knows, maybe this little scrapbooking christmas card idea might even help in any sort of situation that is less then friendly.

And if you have to make some crazy and wacky things happen to liven your christmas scrapbooking card up, then so be it! Maybe plan a trip to go somewhere, and take photos for you christmas card along the way. If it snows where you live, take a day off and build a snowman with your kids or even go sledding. Just make sure to take lots of photos, that way you can pick the best one for your christmas scrapbooking card. The whole point of scrapbooking christmas cards instead of just going out and buying them is to be creative! Get your famliy involved in scrapbooking your christmas card. Make it fun, and your kids will remember it for years to come, and who know, maybe it will become tradition in your family to make your own holiday greeting card and your kids will do it with their kids someday!

Bottomline, when it comes to scrapbooking christmas cards, have fun and be creative. You might even save a little bit of money over going down to get your picture taken and printed out on those generaic cards.
