I want to make a scrapbook of my life for my boyfriend and then at the end do things that are connected with us but I have absolutely no ideal of how to do it. I just want to do something special for him because we live in different states so when I visit him I want to bring it to him. I just need some ideals on how to get started and stuff can anyone help.

Well you asked the right person i love scrapbooking! Well you need pictures...that would help alot. first you should sperate the photos of you like an envolope or box for your birthday pictures, holiday pictures, and baby pictures. Next you need a book, you can buy a plain one and decorate it or buy one already decorited the best ones i found were at Michaels, Rag Shop, & A.C. Moore. Bring your pictures along with you. Start with your oldest pictures, if you are using baby pictures that should be your first page. Find colors that go along with your pictures, if you wore alot of pink in the pictures get pink backgrounds, mats, and borders, and stickers. Get a catchy title for each page. Next Make your Layout this is important most ppl just but pictures in as a collage and thats how my first book looked. it was a billion collages. I would suggest a layout it comes out much better and you will still have photos left for yourself. Without sticking anything on place everything, Background, photos, borders, stickers, titles & journalism where you want it. Next use double sided tape to stick down your pictures and glue for your heavy material emblishments. Do this for every page going in order of the years. Your last page should be very special for the background i have an idea get 2 colors ur favorite and his favorite in shades that match rip them down the center and paste 1 of each 2 halfs together and u have a beautiful background! dont forget journalism!

i made a scrapbook for my boyfriend because we're in a long distance relationship too. my book for him just consisted of pictures that we've taken when we're together. you should start with the basics, the book, double sided tape to attach pictures. also get cardstock and patterened paper. i used ones that had a love theme to them. as well embellishments also are a nice touch too. my boyfriend absolutely loved it. he looks at it all the time when we're apart. if you have any questions let me know because i scrapbook all the time.

Its a very sweet idea, and he may say he loves it, but boys don't like scrapbooks. Give him a sexy video of yourself instead. 9 times out of 10 hell actually look at that when he misses you.

Geez you must really like him to go through all that and he will probably think the idea is weird anyway but definately sweet....it sounds like you already have a pretty clear idea of what to do. GO with it....

Scrub the scrap book idea and buy him a copy of playboy or hustler to take into the john when he wants to be "alone".

you don't!! guys don't give a sh*t about that kind of stuff! I'm not trying to be rude, i just would hate it if you put all this effort into making this for him and then found out that he didn't even care.
