Book Reviews of The Creative Memories Way

Book Review: Where are your precious pictures and memories? Please read!
Summary: 5 Stars

Since I was a child, I've ADORED taking pictures of my family, friends, pets, ect. and spent tons of money on cameras, film, developing, and magnetic photo albums. My pictures are one of my most treasured possesions and after my family, the possesion I would save first in a disaster. I thought in the meantime my investment would be safe in the magnetic photo albums I bought and received as gifts. But then I heard about a wonderful company called Creative Memories from a friend and Consultant Priscilla, had a CM party, and learned the truth: how magnetic photo albums and certain materials were harmful to my precious pictures and destroying the one of a kind memories that I wished so much to preserve. I learned about Creative Memories line of quality acid free and photo safe scrapbooks and other products, how they would keep my precious pictures and memories safe, and preserve them for future generations. Most of all, I learned that making scrapbooks with Creative Memories was fun, brought families closer, and by sticking to their "simple pages" philosophy I could get an album completed quickly. This was very important to me, because I take a LOT of pictures, and have 35+ years of precious pictures and memories to get into CM albums.

I think it's most important to realize that yes, you can get your pictures into CM albums if you stick to the "simple pages" philosophy. What's more important? Having an highly decorated scrapbook page that prehaps you can win a contest in one of those popular scrapbook magazines? Or getting your precious pictures and thoughts into acid free and photo safe scrapbook albums NOW for your family to enjoy knowing you are preserving you and your family's legacy for generations to come? If something should happen to you, do you really think your family and friends will open those albums because of all the fancy decorations on the scrapbook page you created? Or turn to those albums you so lovingly created to remember you, your loved ones, learn what was most important to you by looking at the pictures you always insisted on taking at family gatherings, and be able to read your thoughts in your own handwriting? The answer: your pictures and thoughts in your own handwriting of course!! And, I will say it again: if you take a LOT of pictures like me and stick to Creative Memories "simple pages" philosophy (just your photos, words, and maybe a few enhancements on your scrapbook pages), you really will be able to get your pictures into albums faster, be able to complete more albums, you won't feel overwhelmed, and you will have a peace of mind that you are preserving your family legacy.

If you would like to learn more about Creative Memories, it's history, why "simple pages" are best, why it's important to preserve our pictures and memories into photo safe scrapbook albums, how creating Creative Memories albums together can bring your family closer together, ideas how to get the whole family involved in creating albums, different ideas for album projects, how to find a Creative Memories consultant in your area, and so much more. I encourage every family to purchase this book, read it, and discover why it's so important to start NOW to perserve your precious pictures and memories in photo safe albums. Your family, friends, and future generations will thank you. Isn't your family worth it? I believe so!
