Christmas time is a great time to focus on family and good memories. I believe the best gifts are gifts of time, and gifts of yourself. Rather than spending time shopping, why not use your talents and create a scrapbooked gift for those you love. You could create a mini album, or photo box. I saw on Scrapbooking Memories this past week a great idea for kids. It’s a composition book customized for them.
Instructions:
You buy a composition book with hardcover. Glue scrapbook paper to the cover. Add some embellishments, a child’s name, small flowers, ribbon, crimped paper, etc. You could put the child’s name on the cover along with a photo, or make a theme such as horses, dogs, music, etc. Not only does this gift remind them how much they are loved because of the time and effort put into it, but it is something they can use throughout the year. It shouldn’t be very expensive and is a great scrapbooking gift idea.
If you’ve given scrapbook type gifts, let me know and I’ll include your ideas in my blog.
Nice! I really think my best friend would love that as a birthday gift.
