Any ideas for a gift scrapbook theme?

Several years ago, I made my parents an ABC scrapbook. I did a page for every letter of the alphabet, with pictures of my kids and the other grandkids, and even old pics of our family. It was the best thing I've ever done, artistically. (And it was the only scrapbook I've ever done.) Now I'd like to make them another scrapbook, but I can't think of a theme. ABC was easy -- got any other ideas that a creatively-handicapped person like myself could do?

  1. Have you thought about a calendar? Karen Foster brings out a calendar and matching stickers to decorate, and you can just use papers and photos to enhance.
  2. You could do one by holidays that you celebrate, like this album: http://www.twopeasinabucket.com/pg.asp?cmd=display&layout_id=1324201 Birthdays: http://www.twopeasinabucket.com/pg.asp?cmd=display&layout_id=1196577 Vacations: http://www.twopeasinabucket.com/pg.asp?cmd=display&layout_id=1382819 Have fun!
  3. What about doing a "then/now" theme? Or do one about their careers/hobbies. Include pictures of them in uniforms or in front of places they worked. Look up how much things cost before they got married and the prices of the same items now: a loaf of bread, a new car, a house, a gallon of milk... Get pictures of their homes before and pics now to see any changes. Try to find billboard ads/commercials and jingles. You might be surprised to hear them singing some of them.
  4. Use the Four Seasons ;)))
