Scrapbooking with friends....need your suggestions, please

Posted by Jennifer_ (My Page) on

I've been making scrapbooks for the past several years. I have several friends who have liked mine and said they would also like to make some for their family photos.

I thought it would be fun if everyone got together once or twice a month to scrapbook together. I was wondering if any of you do this with friends, family, or neighbors?

Do you have suggestions for scrapping get-togethers? What do I need to tell new scrappers to bring? I have tons of scissors, templates, stencils, and punches that I would be happy to share. I wish I could provide all the supplies but as you all know it can be very expensive.

Thanks in advance for any ideas and suggestions. Happy New Year!

I went to CM class with a friend. The demonstrator supplied all the papers, scissors, album sheet/cover, pens, stickers, etc, and charged $10. (she also gave us a nice set of scissors to keep ). Maybe everyone could chip in at first, then when your friends get more of their own supplies, you could exchange.

I'm going to my second organized scrapbook get-together at a place that sells supplies this weekend. They charge $10 and supply a table, meal, soft drinks and snacks. You can use their equipment like punches, stamps, etc., but have to use your own paper, scissors, stickers etc. Of course, you are free to wander the store and buy more stuff.

A friend and I got together at her house last month. We shared our equipment like cutters, etc, but we each had our own paper and supplies.

I'd invite everyone over and have a simple snack like cookies and cake and coffee. Ask your friends to brink snacks to share also. Have everyone bring their equipment and personal supplies that they would need. I wouldn't be worried about being to formal or organized about it. Just have fun.
