Artistic or Not

I'm not artistic enough or I'm not creative is why I don't scrapbook! This is the one sentence I hear over and over again from people that I have trouble understanding. I know many of you have heard it or used to say it yourselves. Look I don't know many scrapbookers that are mistaken as Da Vinci, while some people are very artistic and make elaborate scrapbooks it's not a prerequisite. Think about it, something as basic as putting a title on a page and pasting pictures to it is a scrapbook. Would you rather carry around an envelope of pictures or try and pile mutltiple people in front of your computer or pull a nice book off your shelf and hand it to someone or take it with you somewhere. The key to preserving history (which is what scrapbooking is) is to just start, I bet that if you just started as basic as I stated previously you will find it to be a great creative outlet. You may even find out that you are more artistic or creative than you give yourself credit for. Almost all scrapbooking techniques can be taught and you can do as much or as little as you like. I encourage you to get some books and read up on getting started or learning new techniques. Enjoy
