Men can create truly amazing pages -- with masculine touches, as author and designer Julie Stephani demonstrates. - The Hunt - This page was created by Stephani's husband, Bill, who participates in an annual hunting expedition to Minnesota. The page features two pockets that hide journaling. Tip: Men who hate to journal should consider "form" journaling, that will allow all the details to be recorded by simply answering the questions or filling in the corresponding blanks.
- Garden Page- Hunting and fishing aren't the only activities that can be featured on a manly scrapbooking page. Many men are avid summer gardeners and a prized summer vegetable garden is an excellent page theme. Just as the colors of nature are echoed on the hunting page, summer brights can be used for the garden page -- as long as the page maintains a clean, no-fuss look . Because the page also contains information, it's a good way to keep an avid male gardener enjoying his scrapbook page and his past garden.
- Vacation: A vacation is a great way to get men involved in the entire scrapbooking process -- from taking the photos to creating the layout to journaling the experience.
