The art of scrapbooking, which was a popular hobby for all school going children, also managed to bring on this sense of nostalgia when one flipped through the colorful pages of a handmade scrap book. The hobby has now, again been revived and keeping in tune with technological progress made all around the globe, it has also gone digital.
