Sample Title Page for Cruise Scrapbook

Why just have a photo album to remember your cruise? You can have a scrapbook, which will display your favorite photos, plus other memories as well. And it's not that difficult to create. I'm here to show you how.

Difficulty: Moderate
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Scrapbook supplies
  • Scrapbook Album
  1. Step 1
     

    Title page will be the very first page when you open your scrapbook. Just like if you were to open a book to read it. It should have a title that represents your cruise, and if you save those darling plastic credit card looking door keys, you can save them for your title page as well.

  2. Step 2
     

    The next two pages, which will be a left page and a right page, should have the name of the ship, and some decorative mattes for you to place photos of the ship, or the first memories you had when you got onboard.

  3. Step 3
     

    Here to the left is another sample of a left and right page that has the name of the ship and decorative mattes. Same basic information, except for a different layout.

  4. Step 4
     

    The next two pages can be about your stateroom. We all love those cute towel animals, and I'm sure you'd like a reminder of where you slept, dressed, and prepared for the night's events on your cruise.

  5. Step 5
     

    Now that you're settled in your stateroom, and probably unpacked, you'll want to explore the ship. These next set of pages will allow you to keep those memories, as well.

  6. Step 6
     

    Dining photos would be displayed on this next set of pages. Photos of the diningroom, buffet, family sitting at the table, will all look good on decorative pages that represent your dining experience.

  7. Step 7
     

    We can't forget about those relaxing times that were spent at the poolside. These next set of pages can display those photos in the sun by the pool.

  8. Step 8
     

    The next few pages can be used for the places you visited. This sample shows Cozumel, however, you can decorate and set up your pages based on which itinerary you had.

  9. Step 9
     

    The next set of pages can represent a beach them if you went to a private island, or you can design them for a winter or ice scene if you went to Alaska. The themes are unlimited.

  10. Step 10
     

    The last page - you might want to have it consist of something about your memories with another ending title.

  11. Step 11

    After you have your pages finished, or even before you start them, make sure you purchase an album for your pages. Also, you will need page protectors. Most albums already have them inside when you purchase them. Cruise ships sell photo albums, and the last cruise I was on was a Princess Cruise, and I purchased their album, because it had their logo and name on the front of the album.
