Though I've never scrapbooked before, when my dear aunt Narissa had a milestone birthday, I knew I wanted to do something special for her. She's led a fascinating life, has traveled the world, is an actress, playwright, and singer, and I decided to celebrate her life with a scrapbook entitled Aspects of Narissa. Each page would describe an aspect of her life or personality - actress, artist, world traveler, sister, etc.
