While looking through my sketchbooks I am amazed at how many times I've used them like a scrapbook ...

On the two pages above I used a glue stick to enter two flier items we picked on a boat outing.

Probably from the same outing ... some receipts from a couple places we spent the night.

This is a little card that came with a beautiful gift from my friend ... I think if I wouldn't have put it in my sketchbook I would easily have forgotten it. Below the card I wrote what was in the box ..., apples, candied cherries, mixed nuts, chocolate truffles...
After a few years the memories dim ... by using my sketchbooks as a scrapbook it helps refresh my memory.
What about you, do you use your sketchbooks as a scrapbook too?
I don't use my sketchbooks enough I can see!!! You use yours for note, sketches, colors, values, and memories. so many good ideas for me!
ReplyDeleteYes, I like to mix it up a bit, plus having a "designated" scrapbook seems like more work to me. Just one more thing to organize.
