I am giddy with excitement! Although I have played around with SN@P! Life in the smaller 6×8 format, it is only until I completed the 12×12 layouts that I really felt my heart missing a beat or two. Yes I know what you are going to say \u2013 can it really be real scrapbooking! And yes my answer is \u2013 it C@N! But luckily for me scrapbooking is a personal thing and creativity in any way incorporating photos, memories and design is scrapbooking.<\/h3>\n

\"SN@P!<\/a><\/p>\n

Scrapbooking in this format is liberating and fun! It\u2019s quick and easy with loads of creativity \u2013 and using the SN@P! Life<\/a> system makes this type of scrapbooking really enjoyable. What I really liked about working with Simple Stories<\/a> is that even though the Life range with its bright and bold colours was my main focus I could so easily include the new Vintage Bliss range with it \u2013 the colours blended and worked perfectly and gave me the vintage look I wanted.<\/p>\n

I worked in some page protectors that are divided in 4×4 squares and 6×4 landscape pockets. It was easy to fill them and create little groupings of elements that worked or applied to my photos. I like how I can use small bits and pieces that would otherwise not find a home on my traditional layouts but get lost in a box of odds. I wanted to photograph the layouts inside the pockets for obvious reasons, and ended up with some glare \u2013 but that\u2019s OK \u2013 and I will continue to work on photographing them perfectly. In the meantime I would like to encourage you to give the SN@P! life project a go \u2013 play a little and forget about the rules of scrapbooking. Instead you can apply all the rules of being creative and having fun while capturing your everyday life beautifully and creatively.<\/p>\n

\"SN@P!<\/a><\/p>\n

To showcase my new found easy scrapbooking and capturing of everyday life, I chose the beautiful Printblocks 12×12 Ring Binder in Pink \u2013 I love these albums because you can fill it to the brim with loads of layouts and memories and they look really great \u2013 good value for good memories.<\/p>\n

\"SN@P!<\/a><\/p>\n

SN@P! Life has my vote for making memories easy and economical, even if you think you are not creative enough \u2013 you can still scrapbook your story. And remember \u201cyou seemingly unimportant story, is important to somebody\u201d. Tell it creatively.<\/p>\n
