May 1 is National Scrapbook Day, a day to celebrate all we do to preserve our memories through photos, video, other media, journaling and careful preservation of media and memorabilia. Creative Memories was instrumental in establishing NSD in 1996.

Did you know scrapbooking dates back to the 15th century? And that, in the 18th and 19th century, scrapbooking (then called “friendship albums”) encouraged young women to write about and annotate their lives. You can read more about the history of scrapbooking on Wikipedia, although the article does not describe the dramatic increase in 2020-2021 in scrapbooking due to social distancing during the pandemic.

I attended the Creative Memories (CM) National Scrapbook Day 2021 preview webinar last week. With 1,000+ CM Advisors on the call, it was quite a crowd! The theme this year is “Let the Shenanigans Begin!”

With a single Project Recipe Kit, you will be able to make BOTH of the layouts below!

What else will be available? In addition to the beautiful papers and embellishments used in the layouts above, you can order additional cardstock, reversible laser cuts, a new shamrock recipe template, a beautiful mint green shamrock embossed album cover, foil embellishments, and digital versions of the materials. And, if you buy a bundle, you get a free booklet of great layouts!

Let’s celebrate!

All the great materials above go on sale March 1; you can order through my link: https://www.creativememories.com/user/MarshaSC .

I will be hosting an NSD Zoom crop (date TBA) to show how to use the materials for the NSD layouts and more. Be sure to follow my Facebook page (Marsha’s Scrappin’ Circle) or send an email to me to be added to the email list so you get early notice!

As always, I would welcome your order through my CM page. Contact me at marshamatyas@gmail.com for more info.

Be safe, be happy, and…be scrappy!
