However, I'm not very good at sticking with new crafts and have a tendancy to have lots of things half finnished. So, to save me spending a fortune on loads of stuff, I thought I would ask on here what is the minimum equipment that I need to start this new hobby? It sounds like it could be quite a frugal one, as I'm always collecting up pretty items, papers and fabrics which could be recycled into a scrapbook page. I'm really looking forwards to this. I have a scrapbooking workshop planned in a few weeks but I want to experiment a bit first.

I started a blog about my personal creations (scrapbook-layout-ideas in my profile) But I have noticed SB stuff has dropped drastically in price these days - maybe cause it is more disbursed to more stores now. But still, do you spend alot? What do you usually spend it on? What is your favorite things to buy!? They make great stocking stuffers, if you have a scrapping friend!

Because you love all the supplies? Because it's a stress reliever? I scrapbook for many different reasons. I started 2 years ago just because I wanted to do something with the photos of my new baby other than putting them in albums. It has evolved into so much more for me- I LOVE the supplies and have so much fun using everything. It's my artistic release. I used to draw but don't feel the need for it anymore since I express my art through my pages. So, what about you? Sun, 29 Jul 2007 18:32:26 GMT sugarcrystalz
