Thirty journaling prompts right here on my list are ready and waiting to go!
Pin it. Print it out. Pass it on. Take it to a crop and talk about it. Use it to start a new Book of Me. I hope you find something here to inspire you.
- The first poster you ever put on your bedroom wall and where it came from
- The first gift you ever bought all by yourself and who you gave it to
- Your favourite kind of crisps and what you think they say about you
- The most evocative smell you know: not your favourite, but the one which best conjures up a picture or story
- A shop you miss from your childhood
- The highest place on earth you have ever been
- The worst meal you have ever eaten
- "Today is worth remembering because" - and it can be anything, large or small
- The last time you grabbed an opportunity and how it turned out
- The first book you remember being able to read all by yourself
- Something you are frightened of
- Your favourite kind of weather and how it makes you feel
- "I've never told anyone this before..."

- Are you good at mending things? What's the last thing you fixed?
- A cooking utensil you can't do without and why
- "I never leave the house without..."
- What would you like to find at the end of the rainbow?
- If there could only be two brands of cereal left in the world, which would you choose? Healthy or not?
- A dream which came true
- The teacher who made the biggest impression on you. At what stage in your life?
- Choose one favourite song from each decade of your life
- What did you buy with your very first wage packet?
- Do you believe in ghosts? Ever think you have seen one?
- If you could be a fly on the wall anywhere, where would it be?
- If you found a banknote in the street what would you do? Have you ever found something valuable?
- A bad habit you have managed to break

Ooh, these would be good for journal pages as well as scrapbook. Do you, know, I can't remember my first poster but I suspect it was an advert from a magazine... I used to love (and still do) some of the full page adverts. As my printer is out of action I'll be pinning this page for future reference. Thanks Sian :-)
a great list, can already think of some layouts.
i'm sure there is something there for everyone. Certainly got me thinking! thanks for the print link, I had no idea you could this x
What a great list Sian! The answers to the first two questions immediately sprang to mind and a few others have got me thinking. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks so much for the list. Since I don't have grandchildren, I have to really think about doing a layout. The list is a great starter. I haven't made a layout in months but I'm ready now.
Fantastic Sian, what a great list to refer to when mojo deserts and like Carmen says also great art journal prompts. List safely printed as I cannot work out how to pin it technophobe that I am lol
A wonderful list of prompts! Thanks for all the inspiration Sian! :)
Brilliant! Thank you...both for the list AND the link...I too was blissfully unaware that such a site existed!! It's been added to my favourites & will be much used....list printed too & on my pinboard!!...there could be a whole album in it's own right there!! :D
They are some great prompts it seems ages (probably because it is!)since I scrapped. I need to come back to your list and put a few ideas into action.
What a great post!
Now if only I'd kept that life size poster of David Cassidy I lovingly put on the back of my bedroom door ...
Great list Sian...plenty to think about!

Thanks for all the inspiration Sian.
Now, George Michael, what colours should I use ;)
Your title spoke directly to me :P and these are so fun! Definitely pinning for future reference! TFS!
What a great list of topics! There are several in there that I am definitely going to use. Thanks for doing all the "thinking."
Great list - but it calls for a lot of good remembering! I hadn't noticed that Joliprint is gone, thanks for the new link - it will come in handy.
Great list! My stack of photos to scrap is so huge, I won't need the list for awhile yet.
Thanks for a mojo inspiring post, Sian! Can you imagine, I never had a poster on my bedroom wall!!
Brilliant, though-provoking, list. I think I'll be scrapping some (in my newly clean, organised, and slimline scrapping cabin!). Thanks so much.
Such a great list, and Jo interesting it will be when others are looking back through your albums
Great list! I tend to fall back on my manicure or some recipe I just tried or want to try.
What a wonderful list of prompts!
i agree that these prompts are good for not just scrapbooking, but any kind of creativity - great tools for getting the mental wheels turning!
What an awesome list!!!
It's perfect for art journaling as well.

A great list Sian! I can see myself using this a few times and shall be passing it on to my scrapping buddy Wendy!
A very interesting list with a few I actually wouldn't know the answer to and some that got me thinking :-)
Love this Sian.. and have linked it to my local scrapbooking group's blog as I think we all run dry sometimes when we are home alone and needing the nudge xx
That is a great list, I might go through it and make a mini album.
Love your list! But LOL at crisps flavour. Seriously, I can't see it has any bearing on anything whatsoever LOL. I have a big pile of LOs to put in album, I have four shiny new albums but they absolutely refuse to come together. I wonder if you'll do it for me {wink}.
Oh how fun - and considering one of the things I'm rewriting in that curriculum is a list of journaling prompts it tickled me we've not overlapped! :) Would you mind if I included your list with a blog url in the handout? Fun to see someone else's list and pages too.
What great list of prompts for a page or journal or blog, Thanks Sian.
Lots of inspiration here Sian!! Thanks for these I am going to joliprint :)
What a great list Sian. Thanks for both it and the link. I didn't know there was somewhere you could do that.
