National Scrapbook Day
National Scrapbook Day is May 6th. Mark this day on your calendar and spend in with friends or family working on getting your memories into a scrapbook … or let your spouse take over the household chores while you indulge yourself. If you’re in need of supplies, travel to your nearest scrapbook store and stock up. Make a weekend out of it and have fun.

A page completed is worth more than 2 in the works. Don’t get hung up on finding the perfect do dad to decorate your page. Set some realist goals and get scrapping. With Creatables at your fingertips there is sure to be a graphic to match any special occasion and everyday moments.

HAPPY SCRAPPING!
