The scrapbook journal entry is the inscription that accompanies the images in a compilation of scrapbooks. There are a few styles of journal writing. Some of which are narratives, scripts, others use fictional stories, and much more. The most typical way to journal is by using normal handwriting, but if the calligraphy is difficult to read, others choose to use the printer or ask other people to write by hand for them.
Journal brings the scrapbook images to life as they unfold on each page. Without it, the entire scrapbook remains a mystery and incomplete. What you need for this task are colored pens, markers, glossy gel pens, stencils, and many more writing basics.
The content of your journal depends on the subject of the entire scrapbook or album recipient and what is the most important thing you want them to remember about it. If you are the subject of the entire scrapbook, you can recall your memories and include some funny anecdotes from each of the photos and even add your touch of point of view.
If the album you are currently working on belongs to someone else, you can include the facts or a mix of facts and narratives in each image. If all the images are arranged in a sequence that describes how the events unfolded, you can write the story on each photo as they occur.
Here are some of the creative ways to write your scrapbook journal:
-Write in circles or ovals following their shape and curve writing outwards
-Write with colored pens, use shiny pens especially for pages with dark backgrounds like black or dark blue
-Use letterhead cutouts from old magazines and put them together to create words
-Use sticky letters or ready-to-transfer letters that can be purchased at bookstores
-Use glitter glues to make raised letters.
-Create colorful prints using your PC and printer
In fact, there are many more ways that you can use to make your scrapbook even more exciting. It’s just a matter of finding the right idea and theme before getting the best result from your scrapbooking art.
