While Spring may not be here quite yet by “weather standards” (take note Mother Nature!), we do know that in a few weeks many of us will have loved ones graduate from high schools and colleges all over the country.  Speaking as a parent, this is probably the first adult milestone in our children’s lives, signifying a new chapter and a clean slate.  In my family, the traditional graduation gift was either luggage (trying to tell them something?), a watch, or a beautiful piece of jewelry.  Something that was expensive and significant, that would be treasured for years to come.  But we have another idea for you crafty (and not so crafty) moms – an idea that is emotionally significant.

Check out the Tapestry line of scrapbooks.  There is of course a general “graduation” scrapbook; but, we also have a whole line of college licensed scrapbooks.  And here’s the thing – they are so easy, anyone can create a beautiful scrapbook.  All of these scrapbook “completes” come with pre-designed pages, sheets of 3D embellishments, & sheets of caption stickers.  All you have to do is pop in a photo or memento, and jazz up the page if you want.  Easy, right?  And what a great reminder to give your student –  all the laughter, good times, hard work, and lasting friendships that school creates.
