Scrapbook the year to keep treasured memories

CRAFT MEMORIES... Scrapbooking allows you to create a special keepsake that you and your family can cherish for years to come. Gather your project's contents, purchase an album, paper, stickers, and the basic supplies to make a start, and let creativity take place. I'm sure many of us can remember being kids ourselves and sitting at the kitchen bench, pasting photos and magazine cutouts onto coloured paper. Photo: Aaron Cordy

Scrapbooking is all about telling a story. Gather your project’s contents, purchase an album, paper, stickers, and the basic supplies to make a start, and let creativity take place. I’m sure many of us can remember being kids ourselves and sitting at the kitchen bench, pasting photos and magazine cutouts onto coloured paper. That is scrapbooking in its early years. Today the options to create such art are limitless to the imagination.

“Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once we grow up,” Pablo Picasso.
