Is there anyone who does this? I am just curious is this an expensive hobby to start or can we keep costs down.. I just have TONS of pictures that I thought we could make into something quite special.
I have picked up scissors and some paper all ready and a cool frame for my DD to use to create a special keepsake of all her friends.. Now we are waiting for a crappy weekend so we can start going thru the pics and maybe start a hobby the 2 of us

I do...I actually just finished a page today that looks really nice if I do say so myself. It can get really costly. The dollar store has some nice things. Michaels does too and if you get thier flyer you can save 40-50% off. I usually get some of the bigger items. It's worth the money though because at the end you have a really nice display of all your memories. I've only startd this year so I don't have many supplies but I have been building on it.

I "Stamp" kinda the same idea as scrapbooking but I make greeting cards...came in handy this time if year for teachers, bus drivers etc...it cost about $100 to get into. I'd love to get into scrapbooking but the cost has scared me away, thought I try the less expensive stamping first and go from there...they're interchangeable

I just do it. I'm tired to at the end of the day but I know I'm making memories and I get excited when I pull together a page. It's something I make time for.

I spent 8 hours on a page one night, LOL! and it's probably one of the simplest looking pages I've done but I really like it.
