Who are the scrappers?

I've noticed several of us are busy working on scrapbooks. Who all scraps? Digital/or paper? How often? Let's share some ideas!

Oh this is easy...I am!

12X12 paper...at home as often as I can, which this year has been a little each day!!

Not sure I have any ideas...I'm not into all the new stuff, yet! My pages tend to be pretty simple...focus is on the pictures with very little extras. I take lots of pictures, so it's important to me to get as many on a layout as possible...I love BH sketches - looking forward to purchasing her second book. One thing I have been doing lately is enlarging my pictures - like really big - 12x12 - cover the entire page with the picture and work over it. Then I use the opposite page for all the other pictures.

Now that I have my camera...a wide format printer will be my next big purchase - can't wait.

Wow! I also use 12x 12. I use a pretty simple style, too. I haven't gotten in to the enlarged photos but I like your ideas! I always do two page LOs so that would work. I'm looking to get a Wishblade cutting system soon. I am very excited about that. I know Flattracker and MNAnnie scrap so I hope to hear from them!

Hmm...guess I better Google this. Perhaps we could share our albums one day - over a nice bottle of wine!!!

Oh my...I just googled - I want that too!! Okay, now I have two big purchases

Saw the WB in action! It is very impressive. I think it will make Quick Kutz and Sizzix obselete. I will also pick up the Pazzles software to run with it. I love die cuts and titles so this would be perfect for me.

I noticed The Scrapbook Shop on snelling is listed as where to purchase this product, but I don't think they have it for sale, they have it available to purchase personalized die cuts from.

Do you know how many different fonts it uses?? If there are only a few that would not be worth it, but if you can use any font then I'm all for it.

Hi - i scrapbook too. A friend is a consultant for Creative Memories - so I started out using most of their stuff - and continue to now. So far I have done one for my 3 year old son (I am a yr behind). And now am starting a wedding & family one. (also a yr behind). Although my wedding is April 2006 - so I am technically not behind .... yet...
(2nd marriage - in case the ages and yrs were not adding up)

WB uses ALL True Type Fonts that you have on your computer! You can access thousands of fonts and they can be cut from 1/2 high to 8 in. high! Unlimited possibilities!

I like digital..and can watch it as a slideshow on the dvd player.

I'd do it the other way, 'cept I don't have the patience for all the cutting, and it's just so damn expensive! They sure do turn out nice, though!
