How
Many Is Five?
We've
all got those projects lined up
that we know we need to do-a baby
book, a travel album, a year-in-review
holiday gift-and most of the time,
they're fun. But if you've ever
felt your creativity vanish when
faced with a "need to do"
project, it's time for a "this
would be cool" project challenge!
We've got just the thing: a five-page
mini-album all about the number
five. You might be surprised at
how this simple challenge can bring
together some really interesting
stories, facts, and photos!

CK Hall of Famer Elizabeth Dillow
brings you the first-ever class
offered as a partnership between
Simple Scrapbooks and Big
Picture Scrapbooking. Elizabeth
has years of teaching experience
both in public high school classrooms
and in local scrapbook stores and
meeting halls as a scrapbooking
and photography instructor. She
views scrapbooking as a way to capture
personal and cultural history for
future generations, and hopes to
help you do the same!
After
you complete this "how many
is five" challenge, you'll
realize that you've captured a priceless
part of yourself or your family
that wasn't even on your "need
to do" list. You'll also have
a chance to scrapbook photos and
memories that might not otherwise
have a home. And best of all, you'll
reinvigorate your creative side-what
could be better at the beginning
of a new year? This is big!
