Scrapbooking: Keep memories in a creative way
what is scrapbooking?
For preserving a legacy of written history, Scrapbooking is one of the best methods. History may be written in the form of photographs, memories of the print media or in a nicely decorated albums or scrapbooks. The idea for the album came into practice after the discovery of printing. Scrapbooking helps to store the information of most interest.
History and background of notebook
in ancient time’s hypomnemata is a form of note book in Greece. This letter is generally used to hold the recordings of a copy of the person who has heard, he says, thinking. The note book written to be used in the actual letter of the person and was like a replica of that person. With the invention of printing the contents of this book moves a part of written material for print materials that helped the person to express you in a much better way. Now a day's print album has become a business.
Scrapbooking provided people with an excellent mix of memories and a newspaper. There has been substantial growth in the use of scrapbooking after printing of material available for the common man. Thomas Jefferson and Mark Twain were some of the earliest and most famous American scrap bookers.
Photos in the scrapbook when we used the pictures that were available for the common man. The scrapbooks used in antiquity as most material includes newspaper clippings, letters, photos etc used to be mounted with photo mount corners and entries from the person who was in the photo in the scrapbooks of age. The scrapbooks also had the old location or the picture. Creative and attractive photos, texts, magazines and souvenirs are displayed in modern scrap booking.
As last year scrapbook became increasingly famous. Scrapbooking helped people to preserve their memories in a creative way. Scrapbooking industries also came up. Scrapbooking was a new way to store your memories.

Computer
There are many ways to make cards on a computer. The simplest, cheapest is to use its software to process the word.
Most word processing software comes with templates for greeting-card. Once you have the blank template on the screen, you complete your own personalized greetings. You can choose from a variety of fonts, but not going too far overboard. Too many sources will give a card to look busy. For images, you can use a photo or a favorite search for free clip art online.

Another option is to buy software to make greeting cards. This software has many more fonts, backgrounds and clip art available then a standard package of word processing.

Creation of a surprise party album
Learn how to create an album that shows the guest of honor from the planning stage through the party.
It's so fun to plan a surprise party. Planning a party for my mother for her 70th birthday. After it was over, I realized how much I did not know about the planning that was done.
I was able to recreate a little of your scrapbook. My dad and I actually started making plans a year in advance. I started with a scrapbook page of the calendar year. Then I included pictures and information on all the banquet rooms we had considered. The banquet room was finished in choosing a hotel, so you have a postcard from the hotel along with a brochure of the hotel. We did hire an artist and it includes some data on its website to add scraps.
When compiling the guest list, I printed so that she knows that we are invited. I had asked via email and responses, so was able to print all emails, both those that love and to assist those who mourn. Some of the regrets really wrote personal messages to my mom.
Therefore, they were given to her at the party, and then put on your notebook with other messages. Is also one of the invitations to see the invitation that went to all his friends? Journal can also be fun when planning a surprise party.
For example, my mom did not want to go to the restaurant where the feast was celebrated. Journal about how we had to convince anyone else that could accommodate our family that night and how this was the only place that serves food you can eat my sister. When we arrived, we did not want to go through the garage, it took my mother on the side of the restaurant. We really thought we were all nuts, not knowing where we were.
These are great things for the magazine as a souvenir of the event. During the match, we had several people taking photos. Of course, were the last guests to arrive and he wanted pictures of other guests as they arrived and hormone doves table. And, of course, we wanted a picture of my mom up and are surprised. We did take pictures throughout the night and had a lot to work with when we went to build your album. My mother was able to see the game from beginning to end through our eyes.
