Have you ever made an ALPHABET album? It is a fun way to showcase photos or stories, but with an added twist.
I have created an alphabet album in the past, where each page had a title (and a topic) starting with one letter of the alphabet. Then, the pages were placed in alphabetical order, even if not in chronological order. So, for 2022, I am suggesting this long-term challenge for you. With one page every 2 weeks, we will be able to finish the year with a complete album. It is up to you to decide if you want to print it or share it otherwise.
I will share my own pages, just for ideas, but I will also give you some more words that will start with the letter of the week. Try to think of one overarching theme to use. It could be about your last vacation, a family gathering, a hobby of yours, a location, etc. Think of something that you have lots of photos of or many words you can associate with.
If you have not started yet and want to jump in, no problem. You know the alphabet so you know what letters you will have to do and you still have many months to catch up on those few pages, so don’t hesitate. There is also no deadline, so if this week’s page is done only next month, it is totally fine too.
So here is my K layout.
Of course, you can use words in your own language too. As you can see, this album was done in French.
Here are some other words that could be used as title/theme:
Kaleidoscope, Knit, Kitten, Karate, Knock, Keep, Keen, Key, Kid, Kind, King, Kiss, Know, Knowledge, Kick, Kindergarten, Kitchen, Knee, Kayak, Kidney, Kangaroo, Keepsake, Ketchup, Kid, Knife, Koala, Knead, and many more.
What will your K layout be?
K is for Kelley Subdivision aka the area of town where my parents purchased a lot and built a house in 1964. The house that I still live in 58 years later.
The letter K is for Kerken (Churches). Two of the three are still in use as church. There were more but another one is rather recently pulled down and there is now an apartment building realized. The two still in use are Catholic Churches. Other religions are holding services in community-centres. The aptly named Van Gogh Kerk is the church where the father of Vincent van Gogh was a minister. Nowadays it is in use as exibition hall, polling station and the city counsil uses it for special business occasions.
This layout I prepared in advance too before I started my trip, but now I have to make the new ones every 2 weeks or so. I still am not completely back to my normal daily routine, but at least I did send my finished album to the printshop this afternoon. Now I have to wait a couple of days for the result.
Rene and Corrie, I love both layouts!
We are never short of creativity here in the Forum.

Pirkko, beautiful photo and layout!
You could take a look at the title as there is a typo. 🙂
