Keep a Year’s Worth of Memories

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Santa Fe, New Mexico, United States of America (Free-Press-Release.com) December 6, 2011 -- Ranchos de Taos, NM- - As 2011 draws to a close, many people will gather to reminisce about the events of the past year. Frequently, photographs and smiles are shared as families remember the vacations, holidays, occasions and simple everyday moments that represent the year gone by. Once we shout, “Happy New Year!” though, what happens to those photos? With a New Year on the horizon, the old photos are often forgotten.

Instead of filing 2011’s photos on your computer or in a box, many families are turning them into a new annual tradition!

Thanks to New Mexico scrapbooking expert, Monica Weaver, they’re now having Family Scrapbooking Nights! According to the Craft and Hobby Association’s 2010 statistics, scrapbooking and memory crafts were enjoyed in 18.4 million households.

At a Family Scrapbooking Night, families get together with their photos and scrapbooking supplies. First, they choose the photos they’re going to use. Then, they design and assemble their pages… together! This type of event allows families to relive happy memories… and create a few new ones! Children and adults work as a team to choose colors and designs, and express their creativity.

Family Scrapbooking Nights provide quality, low-cost together-time that parents and children desire and deserve. Additionally, it gets those photos into a personalized scrapbook for families to enjoy for years to come! And for the families making it a monthly event, they may even get caught up on ALL of their photos!

Monica helps families get started with suggestions for style and direction they can then personalize to their own tastes. Any local families interested in starting this new tradition in 2012 should contact Monica at (575) 779-2144 or monica@addalittledazzle.com, or visit her website, http://www.addalittledazzle.com, to view some original scrapbooking ideas.

Monica is also available for media interviews to discuss the popularity and economic good sense of scrapbooking and Family Scrapbooking Nights. Please use the contact information provided to schedule an interview.
