INTERVIEW A RELATIVE ABOUT YOUR FAMILY HISTORY
Design by Irma Gabbard
Irma featured her mother’s favorite photos and memories in this scrapbook album. If you have an eyewitness to your family history, set up an interview. Ask the person to choose a few favorite photos and share his or her memories and perspectives. Compile the information, then journal from the perspective of your family member for a personalized touch. Irma emphasized her theme by placing a simple title -- “photo memories” -- in the photo slot in her album cover.
