April already?! This year is going a little too fast for my liking. The days are now getting longer and it's getting warmer which is a change from the cold weather. The novelty of winter has warn off and I just want to be able to wear my shorts again! At the start of the year I decided I was going to start scrap-booking however it wasn't until last week that I actually brought one. I think scrap-booking this year is a pretty cool idea as it will be a good way of remembering what I did this year in one handy book that I can look back when I am all old and grey. If you have ever wanted to start scrap-booking there has never been a better time to do so. So go grab a Scrapbook and some funky pens and carry on reading!

Things you will need to Scrapbook:

Finding a good Scrapbook is key to starting. I got mine from Paperchase HERE and it was reasonably priced at £10. You can either get a Scrap-book with just pages or with pages and pockets to keep little odds and ends. Once you have your Scrap-book to hand you now need to decide what you are going to scrapbook. Down below is a list of possible things you could include to inspire you:

Things to scrapbook:

Events that you have been to: Tickets, Souvenirs, Pictures

Achievements: Certificates, perhaps write a little note saying what you achieved

Important life moments such as Birthdays, Christmas: Cards, Pictures

Now with all these bits and bobs you can start arranging them in your scrapbook, sticking them in place with your funky Washi/Paper tape. With mine I started from January and stuck in all the bits and bobs I had saved and wrote a little summary of the month, what I read and any important events that happened. I did this for the rest of the months up until March. I plan on buying a disposable camera and taking it with me everywhere go so I can capture moments in a snapshot and then put them in my scrapbook.

It's up to you what you want to include but don't forget to go wild!

Happy Scrap-booking :)
