Make Memories

To capture the magic of your summer vacation for years to come, plan your travel scrapbook while you're still away. It's easy with these tips from Creative Memories consultant Lisa Summerour.

BE ORGANIZED- Label an expanding file folder with the days and dates of your trip, then drop all the memorabilia from the day into the proper pocket.

GET CREATIVE- Go beyond typical mementos like postcards, and look for anything that captures the essense of the trip: maps, travel guides, menus, ticket stubs, even toll receipts.

SLIM DOWN- Include bulky keepsakes that won't fit between the pages (Like that Hawaiian lei) by making color copies, then simply adhering them to the pages.

PHOTO FINISH- Be different: Everyone who goes to Disney World gets a picture with Mickey Mouse, but how about a shot of your feet next to Mickey's feet for comparisoin? Or, to document a road trip, try snapping the "welcome to..." state signs. Your scrapbook (and memories) will be unforgettable, guaranteed.
