    Many people organize their photographs in photo albums. They might also display special pictures in frames in their homes. But photos alone will have little meaning for your family or others if you aren’t around to share the memories that they capture. “Scrapbooking” is a way to display pictures along with text that explains their significance.  

     A scrapbook need not have anything other than photos and words arranged on background paper. However, one of the appealing things about this increasingly popular pastime is the opportunity to express your personal style by decorating the pages of your memory books. This can be done by using coloured paper for backgrounds, creative styles of text, and other forms of embellishment.

    Getting started in creating your own unique keepsakes can be overwhelming, but it needn’t be. The following sections break down the components of scrapbook pages and explain a little about how to use them. The key thing to remember is that there is no right or wrong way to scrapbook. Your albums should reflect who you are and what’s important to you.
