scrapbooking

so ive decided to take up a new hobbie- scrapbooking. bj and i recently picked out a scrapbook together. ive been looking up different ways to scrapbook and looking at magazines, websites ect....and i am super excited! im not sure i will be that good at it but i cant wait to start! if yall have any tips or things that would be helpful for a beginner scrapbooker- let me know! ps...scrapbooking always reminds me of heather (john) himmer. partly because i know she loves scrapbooking and even has one of those scrabooking roll bags (i secretly want one now)..haha... but it MOSTLY reminds me of her bc she had her car stolen one day while working at a scrapbook store...haha....as i was typing that i realize that unless heather herself has told you the story, you are probably thinking im mean....so if you know heather, get her to tell you the story. its hilarious.

oh yes... the SBW (Scrapbook Warehouse-you gotta get down with the lingo :) I would HIGHLY recommend- #1 make sure to lock your car and park in a visible place at any time you are shopping for supplies, afterall- those little stealers know you are going to be in there for a while! lol... also- you have to get a paper cutter- they make trimming down pictures and paper SO quick and easy. I have a "Cutterpede"... I know- cheesy name, its great though!

Oh you are going to love scrapbooking! Careful though, it gets super addictive and super expensive!! I agree with the paper cutter, that should be your first purchase. Next up should be lots and lots of different paper styles. Anything can look good with the right combination of papers! Happy Scrapbooking!
