Scrapbooking is my passion, after God that is. I'm a manager of a Christian Scrapbooking club! It is a wonderful hobby. I have been scrapbooking for six years now! And things have changed so much. I'm making cards now even. Great way to use up your paper scraps!

I've done... well... sort of scrap booking, I guess. I don't have the money for the archive quality paper, but I use special photocorners to place pictures in albums so that they are secure, but can still be removed later. Those albums I then decorate with well... just about everything. My sort of scrapbooking isn't that expensive, because with some glue and a crafts knife, you can get the most magnificent pictures that you've cut out of postcards, packagings, wrapping paper, etc. Plus a ribon here, a sprig of something there, a stamp over here, dried leaf somewhere else...
Slowly I add to my materials. I have some malls for paper pricking, a few cut out patterns, etc...

I've been scrapbooking since I was about 9 years old. My pages back then were terrible! It's a very fun and creative hobbie, but yes, it can be expensive. I've found ways you can get things cheaper. Esp. those fancy yarns and ribbons. At craft stores skiens of that fancy yarn is sold for 3 or 4 dollars! Or, you can get it at the scrapbook store and get less for 9 or 10 dollars!
People ask me who taught me, and how I learned!! I just tell them that you teach yourself. It's a thing you learn with experience and time!

Honey, You want to talk scrapbooking? I belong to two online interactive scrapbooking clubs on the internet. :wave: We're so interactive that we have it set up in little strings that we all make something, snail mail it to the host of the string (enough for everyone in each string;) ), and then she snail mails it all out to the other members. So everyone has a bit of something from everyone.


Scrapbooking is such an addictive (and expencive hobbie) that my mother has spent about eight hundred dollars on it so far!! And that doesn't include the money from scrapbooking retreats we've gone to! I've only been doing it for a little over a year, but I own so much stuff :bow: (between my mother and I), that we sell things on E-bay, locally (all scrapbooking things), and have even talked about opening a local club and store. It's crazy:p , and scrapbooking is such an expencive hobbie!

LoL, anyway, I just love to run into new scrapbookers and talk to them about it. I love sharing ideas and hints and things.:clap: So, if anytime you want to see work that I've done, or you want to show me work, E-mail me! LoL

I love to be creative, and scrapbooking is a blast. However, lately I have taken to making cards more often, because I really don't have a whole lot of pictures, just yet. I love all the paper and embellishments, but I don't have enough pictures, and then I have pictures after I have used all my ebellishments that I like on cards. But over all I love scrapbooking, I just wish I had more money to devote to it.

It isn't easy to find the money. I am right now saving for college. I am attending junior college fulltime, and working fulltime, and making jewelry on the side and selling it. And I have to save all that money for hopfully going to Moody Bible next fall.:prayer: So money isn't the only thing I am lacking, time is hard to come by too. The two hardly ever coincide. LOL
