A while back, I was thinking – wow I’ve got a lot of photos and mementos from the past year, what can I do with them. Then it dawned on me – throw a Scrapbooking Party. So, I went to work creating a list of people to invite. After all if I had lots of photos, I am certain my friends did also.
I invited my friends over for some serious scrapbooking and partying. I rented a few tables and chairs from my local party rental store and set them up in my living room. I bought some crepe paper streamers to dressed up the tables along with some vinyl table cloths. I bought a few scrapbooks for myself and also in case my quests needed some.
I made a wonderful vodka cranberry punch. Purchased some cookies in the shapes of scissors, scrapbooks, and cameras from my local bakery. To round out the party food, I had a cold cut platter of sandwiches.
My friends arrived and straight away, we were laughing and sharing pictures and giving each other hints on how to make a scrapbook page. For me scrapbooking seems like a daunting task. Yet with my friends help, this party made scrapbooking a enjoyable and tons of fun. In fact, we had so much fun, I think it will become and annual party.
This party is one that can be thrown together quickly. It is great for sharing your photos and memories while making a task of sorting and storing photos absolutely fun.

You can vary the quantities to suit your taste. I also froze cranberry juice and orange juice in ice trays to keep the punch cold as well as to put in our glasses. For a non-alcoholic version use ginger ale instead of vodka.
