Scrapbooking


I have no Photo Story for today since I have been a bad Mama and haven't taken many pictures lately. But I have been working my scrapbooking mojo. I am actually excited about getting down to business tonight and making the trick or treat baskets. I made a stop in a scrapbook store today and all I can say is wow. This store when I first started scrapbooking about 7 years ago wasn't the best. The basically carried Bazzill and random assorments of paper. I found another store on the other side of Madison and began to shop there. I'd stop in this store if I was in a pinch and wasn't driving to the West side. Someone bought out the store and slowly it has built up. I couldn't believe all the goodies they had in there. I wish I had a bigger budget today. So here's to you Scrapbook and Stamping Memories for turning this place around! And Scrapbook Superstore, I still like you too. I am really tempted to buy this new die cutter by Making Memories called the Slice. I never bought a Quickuts when I wanted one, I never bought a Cricut when I wanted one. I'm thinking I really want this. It looks small enough I can put it some where and not need a cart or what have you, like the Cricut. And yes ,it seems to only cut one item at a time unlike the Cricut, but I haven't watched enough demos to say your certain. Maybe I'm just infatuated right now. Hopefully by the end of the weekend I will have some stuff to show off. And by the way the new EVA line from Basic Grey is beautiful.

Post some of your scrapbook stuff - maybe it would inspire me to get going again.

Btw, I may have strong opinions, but I am not angry. We can disagree and that doesn't make me not want to hear what you have say. Still blogging friend, right?

sooooo tempting.

Scrapbook Superstores are one of my weaknesses.

great job btw!!

I envy your ability to catch up with your scrapbooks. Maybe I'll do once my kids go off to college;-)

I would LOVE to see some of your scrapbooking artwork Robyn!

I'm over 1 year behind on scrapbooking, can you belive that? It just LOOMS over my head. Perhaps you've inspired me to start back on it. Perhaps. :)

If only we could scrap as fast as we could snap hey!
Have you ever checked out Stampin Up! It's my favorite place to get cardstock and stamps of course!

oh, don't give up on the cricut-- I have a tiny space mine sits on, and it's so little, I just move it out onto the table when I'm using it.
I can't wait to see some of your stuff (I am the basic, give-me-some-directions kind of scrapper).
