Scrapbook ideas for a 50th birthday page
A 50th birthday is a monumental event in an individual's life. When your friend or loved one celebrates his 50th birthday, you and others may want to make a scrapbook to commemorate the event. Collaborate with the group; each person can design a page, and the pages can be assembled to create an entire scrapbook. Does this Spark an idea?

On This Day in History
-
Honor the day the person was born using historical events. Research things that happened on the person of honor's birthday and tie it into the page you are creating. Use newspaper as a background for the page, and create headlines, such as "On this Day in History." Include historical events that happened on that day. The biggest headline will be the birth of the birthday celebrant. Include baby pictures, pictures from other monumental events in the person's life and, of course, pictures from the 50th birthday celebration.
Achievements
-
Include the celebrant's achievements over the last 50 years on the scrapbook page that you are designing for him. Incorporate pictures of graduations, his wedding, and his children and grandchildren.

Birthdays Through the Years
-
Include pictures of other milestone birthdays in the person's life: for example, her 5th, 18th, 21st, 30th and 40th birthdays. Use stickers of balloons, invitations, noisemakers and other party-related items to add fun to the page.
My Favorite Things
-
Center a page around the recipient's favorite things. For example, if the beach, boating, travel and chocolate are some of his favorite things, you can include pictures of him enjoying these things throughout his life. Use paper that offers a beach scene as your backdrop. Affix stickers of boats, airplanes and candies to the page.
