I do scrapbooking and I would like to know if there is anyone out there that scrapbooks also I use to be a Creative Memories Consultant but I had to give it up because I had to put in an order ever 3 months of $500 and I did not have alot of people that would order from me I even had a website so I don't to creative Memories anymore but I would like to teach scrapbooking from what I have learned but there are just not that many people out there that have the time or money to do scrapbooking and I also like doing it for fun.

I love to scrapbook !! I haven't done any pages in awhile but will get back into it again one of these days . I have albums filled with all my children and have so many more album pages I would like to do up but just don't seem to have the time or don't have the pictures that I would like to do them pages up with yet . I buy most of my scarpbooking supplies at the dollar store but have spend a lot of money on different items such as when I got the embellishments for precious moments . I have found that there is a lot of stuff just from around your own house that you can use for your pages that we would normally throw away as junk that would really look nice on a page . For example one of my girls recieved a brats doll for her birthday and with it came a big key . I scooped the key to use for a scrapbook page . Buttons are nice as well and we throw them away everytime we throw away an article of clothing because it is stained or ripped . I am not sure if any of my stuff is from creative moments but I have heard that name before so I am sure I have stuff from them if not just pages . One of my most creative pages that many like is a page where I cut out the year and pasted pictures of my daughter in the numbers to make the year the pictures were taken as I had so many of her in that one year alone :)

Well you have to be careful with stuff you use around the house and make sure that it is acid-free & lignin-free, cause if not it will discolor your pictures tha albums have to be the same way. I have so many dis colored photos that I may not even put them in an album they look so bad. You should also store your photo's in a box in a dark cool place, that makes them fade. If you have anymore questions let me know
