Pet Pages

by Elizabeth Cuzzacrea (Oct 27, 2004)

Pets are often considered to be a part of the family. They are part of our daily lives and share special moments with us. As scrapbookers we should preserve these memories and give our pets a prominent place in our scrapbooks.

Here are some ideas to spark your creativity when scrapbooking your pets:

  • Name. How did you decide on your pet's name? Document this story. Include why you chose the name and how the name fits your pet's personality.

  • Nicknames. Many of us have unique nicknames for our pets. List these in a layout including photos of your pet.

  • Top 10 Reasons. Create a layout with a list of the top 10 reasons why you love your pet.

  • First Day. Scrapbook about the day you got the pet. Use photos from when you brought the pet home on your layout. Include the story of how and why you got your pet.

  • A Normal Day. Create a layout titled, "A day in the life of ______"; and use your pet's name. Snap everyday photos and list your pet's daily activities.

  • Nightlife. Does your pet compete in shows or competitions? Create a layout to document these exciting events.

  • Sleeping/Lounging. My dog loves to lie at my feet while I'm surfing the net or scrapbooking. Create a layout and journal about your pet's favorite lounging or sleeping spot. Snap a photo of your pet in that spot and include it in your layout.

  • Toys. Pets often have toys that they are attached to. Take a photo of your pet with a favorite toy and use it in a layout. Journal about how your pet got the toy and how well-loved the toy is.

  • Treats. All pets get special treats. What treats do your pets love? On your layout use photos of your pet with the treats, and journal about the treats.

  • Tricks. Some pets have unique talents or can do tricks. Use photos showcasing these talents to create a layout. Tell about the trick or talent and how it came about.
