English term or phrase: addictive
"Scrapbooking is creative, it's relaxing, it's personal, it's addictive, it's deeply fulfilling."

Ma version pour l'instant : "Faire son propre album-souvenir est créatif, relaxant, intime, extrèmement satisfaisant et absorbant".

Je n'arrive pas à rendre l'idée que ça rend "accro" sans que ça soit trop argotique.
