We know how it goes—you sit down to scrapbook, and suddenly you’re digging through folders, boxes, or your phone trying to find the photos you want to use. It’s easy to get overwhelmed before you even begin.
But here’s the good news: a little photo organization goes a long way—and with a few simple steps, you’ll be scrapbooking faster and more confidently than ever before.
Today, we’re giving you a Recipe for Success when it
comes to organizing your photos. With the right prep, your pages come together like magic!
Before you start any layout, take a few minutes to gather the photos you want to use. This might mean scrolling through your phone albums, flipping through printed stacks, or opening a folder on your computer.
Try creating simple folders by event or theme—like “Beach Trip,” “Birthday Bash,” or “Everyday Moments.” Having your photos grouped and ready is like having all your ingredients prepped before you cook—it makes the process smoother and more fun!
Once you’ve gathered your photos, choose your favorites—the ones that really tell the story or capture the moment. You don’t need to use every photo!
Let 1–2 standout shots be the “main course,” and fill in with supporting photos for extra flavor. This makes your page more intentional and keeps it from feeling cluttered.
