Why I Scrapbook

Why do I scrapbook? I've been asked this very question many times along with where do I find the time. It always comes in a patronizing tone. As if I'm being so very frivolous with my time and priorities. There are many answers to why I scrapbook. I like being creative, some times I NEED to be creative. Scrapbooking allows me to release my creative energy and many times helps me to relax. I also love that I'm recording the story of our life together so we can remember the details long after the experience. Finally it's just fun. It's a modern sewing circle or quilting bee where creative folks can share and help each other discover new ways to tell their stories.
