Do you need a reason to get into scrapbooking? Here are six reasons to get you started:
- It’s a lot of fun.
- Preserve family history for your posterity while introducing your family to future generations. This does so much more than just a family tree!
- A good excuse to go shopping. Ok, let’s be real. Do you need an excuse to go shopping? You can shop via my website and never have to venture into the store, and shopping in your jammies is better at home! If you need informtaion on scrapbook adhesives, here is a great post for help.
- Get together with friends who love scrapbooking too. We all need to get back into the world after two years of covid and becoming comfortable with being always at home. There are other benefits to scrapbooking with friends, you bounce ideas off each other and learn more techniques and ways to look at things. You don’t have to take the advice or suggestion, but sometimes it helps.
You can get your children involved and make it a family activity. My daughter actually introduced me to scrapbooking, and my grandson was very interested in what his mom was doing.I loved how the kids would describe a photo – the perfect journaling!
6. The scrapbook albums look a lot nicer than shoe boxes full of photos and a lot safer too! Clouds are great for backing up your photos, but no one wants to sit down with you while you look though pictures on your computer together… but sitting together to look through an album…priceless!
Leave me a comment below and tell me if you scrapbook and your reasons for doing so. I love to hear about how other people think about scrapbooking!
