Scrap Gals Podcast

In this show we’re sharing 100 ideas on how to incorporate Pop Culture into our scrapbooks! Pop Culture is all about what’s popular in society at any given time, including music, movies, TV, books, fashion trends, celebrities, slang, technology and more. This is a topic that’s very easy to scrapbook because it's really a snapshot of what our lives look like today. We hope some of the topics we discuss will help you think about your favorite memories of pop culture and how you can record those for future generations to remember.
