Last week I shared ideas for using email quizzes as your journaling. A similar idea is using printed quizzes & questionnaires. Simple Scrapbooks had a Special Issue “Scrapbook Shortcuts with Quizzes and Questions” that I LOVE. To give you a flavor of it, here’s an excerpt:
You can see the LO’s this quiz inspired on this blog.
The issue includes 25 quizzes in several categories: all about me, friends & family, fun & funky, kids, tell me a story (quizzes to remember your past) Since simple scrapbooks magazine is now defunct, getting a copy of this one may be a little difficult, but some of the editors of Simple Scrapbooks formed an online publishing company, Ellapublishing.
Ellapublishing has a similar e-book: Quick and Creative Quizzes
The book has samples for each quiz. Or you can just get 11 of the quizzes in a “printable” format.
I have both books and the quizzes are NOT repeated from one book to another.
Remember you don’t need to include the entire quiz. Just one or two questions & answers may be the perfect accompaniment to your layout.
Hi Trick or Treaters! Welcome to the Scrap Orchard Trick or Treat Blog train: Knock on my door if you dare! LOL! (if you do, you’ll get a fun treat)
Now head next door to KAT’s house…enjoy trick or treating!
PS…enter to win my DSD grab bag while you are here! Scroll down to the next post…
When was the last time you opened your email to one of these:
Delete my answers and fill in your own. Then email it back to me, and on to ten of your friends.
Nickname: Chelle
One thing I will NEVER eat: Liver
If I could have one superpower, it would be: flying
A task I perform unwillingly: take out the garbage!!!
My dream job: Full-time digi-designer
Etc.
I am usually a little annoyed. yet intrigued. It’s kinda interesting to read the results. And that is the basis for today’s “trick”: Using quizzes in your scrapbook journaling. It’s a fun format and includes interesting details & personality.
Sometimes your layout will include several questions. To complete this LO about my husband’s birth story, he called his Mom and quizzed her about his birth.
Looking for quizzes? (Now you have a reason to keep those emails) You can also google email quizzes or email questionnaires.
You must be logged into the ScrapOrchard forum for the link to work. $14.99 per month OR $74.99 for six months = Six for the price of Five.
Hi! I'm Chelle: a 40 something mom of 7. My husband & I live in a rural community in the rocky mountains with our 4 children still at home. In the winters we enjoy sledding & snuggling by the fire. I the cool fall evenings we love relaxing around the campfire & meeting friends at the county fair. Admiring the stars 
on a clear summer night and splashing in spring mud puddles. We love making memories together. Me? I love blueberries, fresh salmon, creating, memory keeping, & above all my family & my faith.
