Scrapbooking: Ideas and Materials

	Scrapbooking: Ideas and Materials by Teresa Carr My church group meets the last Tuesday evening of each month. We all get together and make scrapbooks for different projects and occasions. I never thought I would like Scrapbooking, not only can it be habit-forming, but it improves on you color and design coordination. I like to share some ideas that I got from the group that can help your Scrapbooking craft.
