ABOUT THE BOOK: The Scrapbooker's Almanac is brimming with historical events, modern observances, and unconventional connections to life that elevate ordinary days into extraordinary and meaningful material for pages and projects. In no time at all you'll discover stories that must be told nestled alongside the endless stream of dentist appointments, meetings, and other obligations that fill your calendar each month. The book will not only motivate you to scrapbook photographs and stories collecting dust or fading in memory, but it will also challenge you to seek out new stories to tell in unexpected ways. The anniversary of the Billboard Chart debut? Opening Day? American Heart Month? All sources of inspiration for pages. It's an idea book in the truest sense of the word!
