I don’t have any pictures of myself or my friends/family, what can I use to scrapbook with?
Magazine photos? My scrapbooking kit came with stickers and ribbon and stuff so not all is lost.
now, this could be an opportunity in disguise – an opportunity to release your creativity & potential 
)
as previous posters mentioned. you could use ticket stubs, avatars, etc. But there are a whole lot of other things/ways. eg.
– if you are good at drawing, or even passably so, you could draw their portraits, or merely silhuoettes. you could also ask someone to do it for you.
– you could collect some memorabilia such as old greeting cards, dust-covers of books shared/gifted, old letters
– you could have samples of their handwriting – in fact you could ask each person to write something in their own hand for your scrapbook. you could give them a particular topic to write on – eg what they thought of you, or of a particular event/activity, etc.
And to keep it cohesive, symmetric & aesthetic, you can cut out the shape & size of cardstock or paper on which you want it to be written & hand one sheet each to everyone. and instead of using only square shapes, try some variations – diamond, hexagon, circle, ….
– you could add some fabric pieces from their fav [but old/discardable] dress. in fact, you could cut the fabric in the same style as the person usually wears & paste them in the form of a figure – eg blouse & skirt, top & jeans, & so on.
– you could go symbolic. think of cartoon characters, literary characters, film personalities & other celebs, etc. who seem to represent the person closely in features, demeanor, attitude, skills, attributes, etc. cut or print these & use for the scrapbook.
it can also be animals, birds, flowers, insects, cosmos, etc. — what does the percon remind you of & why.
you may, of course, need to add a few words to explain why you’ve chosen that “symbol”.
– you could compose poems or verses/limericks for each, or devote songs that best fit them.
– search through quotations – what fits best…
– you can make it a “guess who” [figuratively, not literally] book with one page devoted to each person. and you could use any of the above ideas or a combo of them to create a “picture” of that person.
hope these inspire more ideas
all the very best & have fun )
