Hello Friends! Have I got a great idea for you this week? Choose a favorite picture or layout and re-enact it.
- You can do the same child in the same pose.
- Ask a child the same questions year after year.
- A young couple’s wedding photo contrasted with a picture of “today’s family.
- A pregnant Mom holding her newborn contrasted with the newborn holding Mom
- Here in Utah, we have Utah State University. On campus, there is a “famous” A-bench. On Homecoming Eve, if you kiss your partner on the “A”, you become a “True Aggie.” How about college sweethearts becoming “True Aggies,” contrasted with 25 years later, when they once again share the passion only a “True Aggie” can show.
Look how Helen (winipeg1) did her layout. Isn’t her little girl adorable?
Recreate the same photo year’s later. My Nephew, Chelle’s brother, got married in 1998. The little kids were a little bored while waiting for the next activity. So they all sat down on the same bench. 15 years pass by. Why not recreate the photo’s? They are hilarious! Chelle told me they did around 12 different re-enactments. I know these teenagers and I can only imagine the laughter going on as they snapped each memory again. These layouts will become your favorite digital scrapbooking layouts of all time. They may not remember the original photo, but I bet they’ll ALL remember the reenactment.
Love that idea! The photos are so funny! Thanks
I love these!! I have always been a fan of recreating photos or scenes years later. I love the last one with the “baby” haha!!
Here are some that I’ve done:
My little girl found one of her baby dresses in the cupboard and wanted to wear it, and of course I had to snap and scrap it, lol

This one was three years after the original photo, showing how much Melody’s feet had grown

And these were taken at a Scrapbooking camp we go to every year. I might try to squeeze Melody into that pinafore one more time in a few weeks and get the same photos again!! Years 2009, 2011, 2013 fits nicely, though the pinafore might not, lol!

I’m definitely going to keep doing this! Thanks for the inspiration!
What a fun idea! Thanks for sharing your photos.
