Scrapbooking is an old art. I have some WWII scrapbooks that provide very interesting insights. No, I didn't make them ;-)
It's only been recently that I have begun to hear the word "scrapbooking". And begun seeing "scrapbooking" supply stores popping up. Sure, people used to "keep a scrapbook"...I kept a scrapbook when I was in high school and I kept a scrapbook when my jedis were babies.
But this seems to go beyond keeping a scrapbook and seems to be some kind of new fad. I've even had a lady invite me to a "scrapbooking party"...I think she called it a cropping. Sure enough, she sells the stuff. Ah hah. I looked at her like she was insane and told her I don't keep a scrapbook and she then in turn looked at me like I was insane! LOL
I don't have the Precious Moments gene either apparently. "Are you scrapbooking? Would you like to come to a cropping?" Lord, it's all to smarmy for words, imo.
Oh I bet I get flamed for this...LOL!!
