The other day, Lauren shared a great post with a video where it showed Jeremiah McDonald at 32 engaged in an interview with his twelve-year old self. This is a great example of everyday inspiration that can come in handy when you feel like you are out of ideas of pages to scrap. “What are you talking about?” you ask. “I don’t have any video of myself at twelve (or at any other age) asking myself questions.”
Of course you don’t. But you do have the ability to scrap a page about questions you wish you would have thought to ask your older self when you were twelve. Scrap them on a page. Or scrap the questions you would like to go back and ask your twelve-year old self. Or are there things you would wish to tell your younger self? There are a ton of things I wish I could go back and tell the twelve-year old me.
You could also scrap questions you want to ask your future self. You could come up with questions you’d ask yourself one year from now. Or five years. Or ten. What would that look like?
Or interview someone in your family. Or have someone friend/family/scrap buddy interview you. Or have your kids interview someone. Or ask them questions about their family. Lauren shared some great questionnaires for the lead-up to Father’s Day.
Or just scrap a right now page. Your day in review. Or your week… month… year so far.
Here are some fun examples of pages that you can do next time you are stuck.
This one even has a QR code on it where they recorded audio of the interview…
An about me…
This is a classic that would really be fun at mostly any age.
Another that would be fun at any age.
A right now page…
A month in review (made famous by Katie at the Daily Digi)
And if you want to do an interview, here are some questions…
Hope you can find a smidge of inspiration and start to think about asking some questions to get your creativity started!
