Scrapbooking is the fastest growing hobby in the UK. It is the art of collecting photographs, memorabilia and embellishments and arranging them in a protective album together with journalling that tells the story of each page. In the years gone by, perhaps you made scrapbooks as a child. If you did then you will remember the books, the collecting of newspaper cuttings, pictures and anything else that you stuck in using that awful glue. Scrapbooking has come a long way since then.
Scrapbooking is now a much more artistic and creative hobby with scrapbook pages being lovingly created, choosing the right backgrounds to go with the right photographs, and then enhancing the effect with fabulous embellishments and carefully told stories that bring the memories to life.
If you look at your old scrapbooks from 20 or so years ago, chances are that a lot of the memories, like your memories of the events have faded, and in some situations are unrecognisable. Scrapbooking today utilises new technologies and scientific breakthroughs to make your memories last longer without fading away. There are even new inks that will make photographs last for 100 years without any fading.
If you are new here, take the plunge. You will never regret the decision to become a scrapper and have your memories last for years. Scrapbooks are the perfect way to preserve and pass on your memories for future generations.
