Family scrapbooks help children remember what it was like for them as they grew up. Scrapbooks can also prolong memories and restore those that are fading. Each scrapbook page tells a story that is illustrated in the photos you use as well as the clear rubber stamps and papers you choose to build a theme and feeling in your pages.

On this page you will discover scrapbook page titles that will help you build family pages, clear hobby rubber stamps that will help you enhance family themes, scrapbook art ideas for those extra special projects and even some family card craft ideas that are ideal for Family Day occasions.

• Choose a stamp that depicts a relationship you can build the theme around.
• Stamp a frame around a family photo using border clear stamps.
• Create a family card around a saying, quote or poem you love.

• FAMILY QUILT Page - Design a layout using either geometric shapes that can be arranged like a quilt or us an actual quilt template to plan your shapes. Cut both photos and pattern paper into the desired shapes and arrange on the page so that the layout resemples a quilt. Draw, stamp or actually sew in stitching lines. You may wish to add a title to one of the squares such as 'A Family is Like a Quilt, Stitched Together by Love."
• FAMILY TREE - A heritage pages and scrapbooks are a fun project to undertake. The scrapbook may begin with  a large family tree. This can be assembled using an actual tree that covers your scrapbook page or you may place photo's of each couple in boxes or circles and connect them with lines to indicate generations. Be sure to include the names of each ancestor you include. To create a heritage scrapbook, create a page for each couple or individual that tells their story. Heritage books become family treasures!
• FAMILY RECIPES - Family gatherings often include food as everyone gathers around a meal. A family recipe page or scrapbook is fun to put together using the photos you have taken at family events and including them on pages with heritage recipes that have been handed down from generation to generation. Recipes are fun to put on cards and decorate with clear rubber stamps. Be sure to journal the stories that go with the recipes and photos you include in your scrapbook.
• FAMILY TRADITIONS - Family traditions are fun to share and pass on to the next generation in the form of scrapbook art. Photos and journalling will share the traditions and clear rubber stamps can be used to carry the theme and the fun of that family tradition throughout the page design.
• AWARDS AND MILESTONES - Stories about achievements are always fun to tell and retell. Recording these milestones on scrapbook pages is a fun way of preserving the feelings of accomplishment that accompany the moment. Certificates and awards can  be photographed and included on scrapbook pages in a smaller version leaving more room for photos and rubber stamping to tell the story.
