Scrapbooking

Most of us at some point of our lives have indulged in the pastime of making a scrapbook of anything that fancied us at that stage of our life. The passion with which the scrapbook was put together can not be put in words, at the same time the heartbreak that was experienced when the scrapbook came apart after a few years was catastrophic. Lovers of scrapbooks will be overjoyed to hear that making a scrapbook is no longer a cumbersome task where you had to work with loose sheet of paper which ad a mind of their own, the glue which spread more than it stuck. All this has been replaced with Scrap booking albums, which could be either placed in three ring binders or bound. You need not use the messy glue, instead you an use specialized glue-dots or double-sided sticking tapes which make work a pleasure and enjoyable. These are so effective that you can even stick feathers, metal gems and beautiful ribbons. Scrap booking is a great gift idea; it can be used as an educational tool and is an amazing way to immortalize your memories The Christensen family officially launched it in the year 1980 in Utah. Today it is a booming business called Keeping Memories Alive and still growing at an amazing pace. Scrap booking has flourished into a Billion Dollar business with a number of new people entering the market with their own companies.
