everything scrappy scrap bookers ideas

Scrapbooking can be a very absorbing and rewarding hobby. It is a very time-consuming activity, but if you are creative, you can create captivating designs of your photographs and events that you'll cherish for a long time. I have often thought of doing this, but didn't have the time to make a start. But I've seen some examples of scrapbook pages that people have created, and some of them are indeed very nice. Take a look at some of the work done by others at a few sites I've come across: a. http://www.cottagearts.net/gallery.html b. http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showgallery.php?cat=500&ppuser=47044 c. http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showmembers.php Although they are electronic scrapbook pages, you can still be inspired and gather some of the better ideas for your own physical scrapbooks that you create. Hope you will enjoy these and find some gems in them.

I have a whole room too dedicated just to scrapping. I love doing that and also use stamps for scrapping. check out www.splitcoaststampers.com they have cards but also scrapbook pages to check out. And there is also smilebox.com where you can do some digital scrapping.

Hmm I don't know really what to say except that I love scrapbooking as well! I also have wayyy too many supplies; in fact I have probably actually wasted money by buying things I don't need or don't use. The one thing I don't like about scrapbooking is that the prices add up really quickly, and it becomes a very expensive hobby!

yes there are some great online sites. my favourite is www.madewithlove.com.sg cos it has a great idea gallery. yes i also have clear stamps galore, and a quickutz squeeze die cut machine and one set of blossom die cut alphas. i must use it more! my hubby just commented recently that i've not been using that machine that i invested in!

My favorite scrapbooking tool is this sticky foam stuff i get from walmart. I use it a s a background on photos and it makes them look semi 3d.

Love scrapbooking! You mentioned you were interested in a die-cutting machine. FYI... check them all out before you purchase one. I have a friend who owns a Quickutz (spelling?), and it is not much when compared to my Cricut. With the Cricut, even though the machine and each cartridge are rather expensive, with each cartridge, you have thousands of options. You can choose different sizes, then if you want to, you could purchase the Design Studio software and "weld" letters and shapes together from the cartridges you own and cut it out with your machine. I love mine! I am extremely frugal, though. Like most scrapbooking supplies, I either purchase on clearance, e-bay, or wait for a sale... I never pay full price. So, in effect, my hobby is not THAT expensive. I learn to utilize what I have or become extremely creative with money. Some of my friends and I "share" things, or swap for awhile... It works for us!

Wow! I didn't even think to tear off tags from my clothing to use them on my scrap book pages!! These are excellent ideas. You have already thought of more things than I have ever used. Woo Hoo!! My Mom just gave me a whole bunch of yarn, which I am sure I could use somehow with my pages. Thank you so much for sharing all of these ideas!!
