Talking

~ The Scrapbooking Thread ~


So I just started my scrapbooking adventure. I spent small fortune last night at the craft store getting my supplies. Im going to make a book for My dog Strom. How many of you scrapbook and do you have any pointers or tips?

*Maybe we can keep this thread ongoing and share our scrapbooks and tips??? What do you think?*

Me! Me! I'm a scrapbooker, made four scrapbooks as Christmas gifts That was stressful Currently working on one of a trip DH and I took last summer

As for pointers I've found that the dollar stores sell great scrapbooking items at a fraction of the cost of other stores!

Actually just thought of a question that I have. DH bought me a fiskars shape cutting tool for Christmas but I can't find the templates for it anywhere!! Tried doing it freehand and it didn't work out so well. Any suggestions on where I can find these?

I'm starting scrapbooking too. my plan was to make books about ewan for MIl and my mums christmas present... but every time i tried to do some work on it Ewan wanted 'to help' so i have all the stuff just need quiet time to do it.
I have the xyron cutting system which is quite good just takes a bit of getting used to!
i also make cards too.

I have the Xyron sticker maker, wonderful product (even though I've only used it a couple of times) it comes in very handy.

Hypnorm I have the same problem with my cats Everytime I start a project they jump in to help me

Regular cutter. I didnt get the cheapst one...but a basic one to start. I want to get an organizer too...But hubby wants me to wait on those things until he knows I like doing the scrapbooking. So for now, things are in zip locks and I am storing my paper in extra sleeves....

I bought these on ebay the other day for Storm's book...

at DH. Stan now knows that whenever we go into Walmart or a dollar store money will be spent on scrapbooking items.

Those stickers are too cute! I haven't really looked at Ebay for items--might have to go do that I'll tell Stan to thank you when I find stuff there Suz
