Tip 1: Use the words “journaling” or “journal” in your searches besides “Stories,” “Storytelling,” and “narrative.” Searching Online for Templates for Family Stories
I use Photoshop Elements to put my layouts together, but the techniques hold true for Creative Memories, Artisan, or other software programs. If you’re new to this site, and are interested in how storytelling (with words) works with scrapbooking, you can see my previous posts at. I realized that though I’ve blogged about scrapbooking memories, I didn’t cover how to go about finding and customizing templates for family stories. This came to mind as a fellow blogger, Carol Kostakos Petranek of Spartan Roots, emailed me asking about templates for embellishing the family histories she’s compiling. Whether you’re working on adding stories to your scrapbooking layouts or wanting to dress up your narratives, finding templates for family stories or family histories can be a chore.
