Children’s Books. These really strike a chord with us, young and old alike. How many adults can remember a favorite children’s book? There are many of us that have at least one or two favorite children’s books. That favorite children’s book could be the key to describing someone’s personality, or the essence of the photos in the scrapbook page. Children’s book quotes are of course perfect for children’s scrapbooking pages. But remember to consider them “outside the box” too. There is Oh The Places You’ll Go! by Dr. Seuss, a time-honored favorite which is often given to high school or even college graduates. Sometimes it is even read at graduation ceremonies. A quote from that could be perfect for a graduation page.

Broadway Show Tunes. There are so many wonderful musicals out there. There are love songs and humorous songs. There is sure to be a quote from a song to describe your scrapbooking page. Broadway show tunes could also be the perfect quotes for someone taking a trip to a large city. There are many themes that would work with these songs.

The Bible. This is a true classic in every sense of the word. Not everyone will think of using The Bible to scrapbook, but every story and emotion you can think of exists in The Bible. This will certainly appeal to you if you are religious and want to include your faith in your scrapbooking. There are many Bible study websites that may help you find that perfect quote from scripture, or ask your pastor for suggestions.

Television. Most of us watch television on a daily basis. And many of us have at least one or two favorite television shows, usually even more than that. So it could make a lot of sense to add some favorite quotes from television when you are using quotes for scrapbooking. Even a commercial on television might appeal to you for a scrapbooking page – you never know! Some commercials gain popular appeal and you know how everyone winds up singing that jingle? So when looking for a quote for that family member or friend, consider television as a great source.

Movies. This is along the same lines as watching television shows. Movies are very popular and there are so many famous lines from movies that have become part of popular culture. A great movie quote could be perfect for so many pages, this will probably add a bit of humorous appeal and charm to your pages. It is a nice way to reference the time and popular culture of our days.

Jokes. A cute knock-knock joke could be perfect for a toddler page, or perhaps a silly rhymed joke. There are a number of cute joke websites available on the internet. Or consider the jokes that your children already tell as wonderful source material. It can even be funnier if your child has made up the joke, or ad-libbed the joke in some way to make it their own.

Family Sayings. Are there things that your mother always said that you are now saying to your kids? Well those things could be great scrapbooking quotes. Or perhaps your husband is saying certain things to the kids over and over. Those could be great scrapbooking quotes too. Capturing those favorite family sayings in your scrapbook is like capturing a moment, capturing a memory.
