Many digital scrapbookers are combining journaling with digital scrapbooking. It makes sense that journaling and digital scrapbooking are a natural fit!
You have your lovely scrapped page and then you add your precious photos so now it makes sense to include something said about the whole thing too!
Many of us are scrapping current photos, but many of us are also scanning old photos and scrapping them as well. These types of scrap pages and photos can really use some extra text to explain them, so the memories aren’t forgotten.
Sometimes when we are scrapbooking we can write about all the things we were doing. How we felt, who said what and why. These things make great additions to digital scrapbooking projects.
All of this got me thinking about adding more Journaling in Digital Scrapbooking projects.
However, sometimes we want to write more but don’t know where to start. So, with Easter coming soon, here are some Easter journaling prompts that might help if you are scrapbooking your Easter Photos, and scrap pages!
Easter Journal Prompts:
- Since for many Easter is about Christ’s resurrection, then
what does the resurrection of Christ mean to you and your family? How to make sure you honor this day? - Do you attend church and have a big dinner on Easter? If you go to church do they have special services on Easter? What do you look forward to? How do you feel? If you don’t go to church, how do you feel about that? What do you do that day? Do you have an special Easter outfit? Easter bonnet?
- How do you celebrate Easter? Share with your journal how your celebration of Easter evolved for you or your family. Did you just pick up the tradition from you family or have you created one of your own? What traditions have you pasted on to your Children? How do you celebrate with them? What cute things do they do or say about Easter?
- What is your favorite Easter memory from your childhood? Share all the details, place, where, when, people, how, why? Why do you think this memory sticks out in your mind as your favorite? How do your children celebrate? What memories do you hope for them?
- What is your favorite dish to eat at Easter time? What are
favorite dishes, (and why) of others coming to your Easter dinner? How is it prepared? What is your favorite thing that is only available at Easter time? Who helps make the dishes? Where do the recipes come from? Include the recipe in your scrapbooking page. Can you share these recipes with other family members? - Do you dye Easter Eggs? Does the whole family do it? Does one person do it? Are the Eggs simple or elaborate? Do the children or grandchildren get involved? How has it changed since you where a child to now what your children or grandchildren do?
- Do you have an Easter Egg Hunt? Outside? Inside? Explain the adventure of discovering eggs. Do you hide Easter eggs? Real or plastic? If you use real eggs do you color your own or buy already colored? If you use plastic do you hide little goodies inside? Ever found a rotten egg? What about your children and what Easter Egg traditions are they having?
- What about Easter chocolate? How does this favorite play into your Easter traditions? If you don’t like chocolate, what is your favorite sweet thing to get or give on Easter?
- Does the Easter bunny show up on the day you celebrate Easter? Or not? Why? Does he come at night and leave surprises? Do you get an Easter basket? Do you make baskets for the children or grandchildren? What is special about the Easter Baskets? What is happening with your children or grandchildren?
- Easter flowers. Do you get Easter lilies? Or other Spring Flowers? How does outside look? Springtime? Birds? Other things in nature?
- In all of these prompts expanded the ideas above by including the people, place and how you feel and what you think about what is going on!
These prompts can serve as inspiration to include writing into a digital scrapbooking page and they can also inspire photos and scrapbooking themes too!!!
Use these prompts to look for old family photos to scan and arrange with journaling on scrapbooking pages. Use these prompts to help pick out certain types of Easter scrapbooking supplies to use in a theme with one or more of the prompts. Use these prompts to shot special photos that will coordinate with the journaling prompts too!
Hope these ideas will encourage you to add a little text to your next digital scrapbooking project or page!!!
Enjoy!
Have very Happy Easter too!
