Scrapbooking Theme – Shopping

Shopping has always been a part of our day-to-day activities. From buying foods and other necessities, to picking new outfits for ourselves, to purchasing gifts for our friends and loved ones, we had to do this kind of thing. While there are people who see it as a common practice, some find it as an excellent way to relieve some tension and stress. They believe it has therapeutic effects as they find themselves constantly entertained, excited and happy whenever they go shopping.

Typically, people visit some stores to buy the goods they need or want. But after so many years, a lot of things have changed and that includes the way we shop. Now that technology has become more advanced, sellers have gained the power to reach out to their potential customers in an easier way through online marketplaces and platforms. So aside from their physical stores, they can offer buyers another hassle-free shopping experience that does not require them to go out of their homes or offices.

Are you one of those people who loves to shop? Do you prefer to go shopping alone or with somebody else? Are you a fan of purchasing products over the internet? Why not tell your shopaholic stories by creating a scrapbook layout just for them!

Theme – Health Awareness

Health awareness is very important now more than ever. While we’re living in a world full of noise and constant activity, we should never neglect the fact that taking a moment to breathe, relax, and look after ourselves is a necessary thing to do. After all, each of us only has one body and we should treat it with utmost care, love and respect. Abusing it would only lead us to bigger troubles that may affect not just ourselves but also the people around us.

The government, as well as many health organizations and medical professionals, are very much aware that there are people who have less knowledge about certain illnesses and how they can avoid or cope with them. This is why we have several celebrations and events that focus on some diseases to spread awareness, give inspiration, and show some support. Have you ever joined any health awareness campaign before? Have you witnessed or heard amazing stories of survivors and how they fought and won over their disorders?

Maybe this is the perfect time to share and scrap about them!
