There are all kinds of reasons for why we scrap, but the most important reason of all is to preserve & cherish our memories. Even when we don’t have a photo to include on the page of any given memory, we can still write about it. Later on, when we read what’s on the page, the photo of the moment will come back to mind. Here are some great quotes about scrapbooking and why we do it!
