Anyone Enjoy Scrapbooking?

[katharina]

I have tons of photo albums that I rarely open, but I've found that if I take the time to be creative and make scrapbook pages with my favorite pictures or themes, I look at them a lot more often. Does anyone else enjoy this hobby?

I am just starting to get into scrapbooking. Basically for the same reason you did. I am making a scrapbook for my wedding anniversery in March for my husband.

I do scrapbooking and card making. I do loads. I'm also into knitting, and cross-stitching.

I love scrapbooking! and making cards too!!
Lately I have not been very good at keeping up. I need to set some time aside and do it.

It is so much fun and looks great once it is done.

I haven't been real good with keeping up with it, either, but at least I got a few holiday pages done. I've never tried doing a card and can't say I fully understand what's involved.

card making is great. I make loads, even sell some. I buy stuff in bulk mostly and then get making. If you like i'll help if your not sure what to do and want to try.

Card making is alot of fun and you can be very creative!! I was amazed at how beautiful they can be once you get the hang of it.

not any one at the moment. I have not tried alot of techinques out there. I like doing water color type cards. I have so many stamps and books that I have not used yet and I just need to set aside some time and get back to it because I really like it. I like to make sets for different occasions and give them as gifts. You know some b-day, baby shower, weddings, all occasion, seasonal that way I don't have tons just myself this way hopefully they come in handy for someone to give in a pinch. (or even on purpose I hope) they really are nice.

Thank you... I'll let you know if I get the urge to try it. I was about to ask for a website that shows some finished products so I could get an idea BUT I remember reading here that we shouldn't do URLs, so I'll just keep reading this thread and glean info from seeing what materials are used, etc. Unless it takes any kind of artistic ability... then I'd be lost.
