Finding the Right Title for Your Scrapbook Page

 

If you are anything like me, you have gotten stuck for a title for your scrapbook page a time or two. The worst for me were the holiday pages – Christmas, Easter, Fathers Day, etc. Because I’m doing at least one page for each of them every year, I’m constantly trying to think of something new and interesting. It didn’t always come easily to me.

 

Then I found a solution that I hadn’t thought of before. A quote from a book can make a great title for your page, especially if that book or particular quote has significance to you. You can find some great examples of this at my store,  http://scrapbookingtales.mybisi.com. All of the pages use quotes from the Twilight series by Stephenie Meyer as titles for the pages.

 

Once you begin looking at books for quotes to use, you may be surprised at the wide range of subjects and situations that are available. You would think that something like romance would be easily found, but with very little effort you can also find quotes about jobs, family relationships, friends, places, hobbies, and even weather. With a little looking on the internet, you can find a quote for almost any page you can imagine. In fact, you should not only be able to find a quote for every possible need, but several. Whether you like short and sweet or longer and more detailed, funny or serious, poetry or prose, you will have a variety of choices.

 

Your title quote could relate to the subject directly, such as a quote about marriage or love for a wedding page, but it could also relate indirectly. If you are doing a page about your best friend, you might want to use a quote from their favorite book. If you are doing a page about an ancestor, perhaps you could use a quote from a popular book from that time period. When doing a page about a child, you could include a quote from one of the books they read that year. A New Year’s resolutions page could include a quote from a book that you want to read in the coming year.

 

Quotes make great titles for any scrapbooking page. They are simple to find on the internet, can relate to just about any subject, and can add a new dimension to your page. The possibilities are limited only by your creativity. Happy scrapping!

 

 

Finding Songs in Movies

Finding Songs in Movies

Twilight: Eclipse

The soundtrack to the third Twilight movie was quite impressive and far from dreary and bland. The music introduced some great up and coming bands, much like the previous two films. There were many good uses of songs to be found here, specifically the use of “With You in My Head” by UNKLE featuring The Black Angels. The song was played during the montage while the vampires and werewolves were training for the newborns. The music was very ominous and menacing while staying quite upbeat, matching the scene perfectly. Muse can be heard in the movie again with their new song ‘Neutron Star Collision (Love is Forever)’, which plays during the party scene. A part from this many great bands are found both on the soundtrack and in the movie. New artists like Band of Horses and Florence and the Machine are heard throughout the movie as well as some more established artists like Beck and The Black Keys.

Grown Ups

The soundtrack from Grown Ups consisted of 18 songs while the play list of the movie itself was nearly double with 35 songs. The songs came quick and fast and generally consisted of classic 70 tracks. The J. Geils band was used heavily in the film with three of their songs making the cut, including ‘Come Back’ and ‘Just Can’t Wait’. Bob Seger was also in there, with Bad Company, Cheap Trick, some Journey, Bob Welch and even Fleetwood Mac. The best use of music was probably when ‘Every1’s a Winner’ by Hot Chocolate started playing during the final basketball game.
