25 Popular Scrapbooking Milestones

Scrapbooking is a trend that has been gaining popularity for years. Scrapbook enthusiasts capture their life and family milestones in the beautifully designed pages of their scrapbooks. Mementos such as ticket stubs, menus,, awards and more, can be combined with photographs, textured, printed, and colored paper, stickers, and text cut-outs to allow a page-by-page commemoration of the milestone. For those unfamiliar with the art of scrapbooking, precious moments may have become a disorganized pile of photographs or a stack of family mementos in a shoe box. These seemingly disparate items can come together in a meaningful way, even by those who feel they are less artistic, but are looking for a means of preserving their memories in the pages of a scrapbook.

There are hundreds of milestones in a person's life and scrapbooking is ideal for capturing them. Some people snap hundreds of photographs, some press flowers or leaves, and others keep mementos like theatre tickets. Each person has their own way of remembering an important event. Scrapbooking is a great way to organize all of these memories into a format that they can share with others. If you have an upcoming milestone in your life, scrapbooking can keep the memories safe for you to revisit and share with others. Purchase a scrapbook and let the following list spark your imagination on preserving important milestones and events to share with family and friends!
