Book of Me Scrapbook Layouts

January (or First) Challenge - Who are You?



For the first set of Book of Me Scrapbook Layouts in the Book of Me challenge, this is a great place to start. It's simple, only states the facts, and does not start you off in an arrogant fashion.



Option #1 - MY NAME - This is a great way to start your Book of Me Scrapbook Layouts. How do you feel about your name? Why did your parents choose it? Do you go by a nickname and have a special story to tell about its origin? What does your name mean and does this meaning hold true for you?

Layout Idea: You may want to include a recent photo of you and use this as your title page.

One place to research your name is the website for Name St. USA www.namestusa.com. HOWEVER! You may only research TWO names for FREE! To research more than two requires a $9.95 registration fee. You may be able to find some other sites for name research.

----------------------------------------

Option #2 - MY ROLES - Daughter, sister, wife, mother, friend, scrapbooker, dog lover, cat lover, horse lover, etc., etc., etc. We all have so many roles in life! Perhaps you are a teacher or a doctor or a factory worker. Perhaps you are a gardener, a grandmother, a quilter.

Which roles identify who you are? Make a layout featuring words and/or photos portraying the roles you think are most important.

Photo and Scrapbook Layout ideas: photos of you in the roles you are documenting.

----------------------------------------

Option #3 - MY PERSONALITY - How do you see yourself? Quiet and shy? Demanding and boisterous? Are you a party girl or a homebody or somewhere in between?

Scrapbook Layout Ideas: Think of words that describe who you are. One way to do this is to assign a word to each letter of the alphabet - this can take some doing, but it is worthwhile! It's OK just to have a layout with only journaling or lot's of mini titles.

Another way is to combine this with your “MY NAME” page and assign a word to each letter in your name or take the first letter of your name and find as many descriptive words that start with that letter.
