I can't understand why so few scrapbook companies have came out with anything Covid related. I'm currently scrapping 2020, and so much of our life revolved around the shut downs, home schooling, and the pandemic in general. Why haven't these big scrapbook companies came out with multiple lines documenting this?
I have the Let's Stay Home from Pinkfresh, and a few things from Scrapbook Customs, as well as a couple things from Kelly Purkey. Am I missing anything? I don't stamp or do digital, so I'm looking for physical products I can purchase. Anything I'm missing?

The three I have were not mentioned! They are the collections by Photo Play Paper (Living the Quarantine Life, and The New Normal) as well as Simple Stories (Quarantined).

I just looked up the SS line. How did I miss this? It's perfect! Thank you!

Not everyone is a theme crafter. I don't really buy specific paper/stickers, etc. but can come up with my own designs using my stash.

Sure, but almost every collection out there is themed, so that argument doesn't make a lot of sense. Birthday, baby, Christmas, and on and on. So I'd guess lots of people do theme scrapbook. Not every collection is going to work for every person. There are lots of collections I don't buy because they don't fit my style of scrapbooking. I can't imagine I'm the only one that uses themed products. |

If you have a Silhouette, there are some items in the store that are Covid related.

Creative memories also came out with two lines. Not sure if they are still available. I would also include Photoplay "We can just stay home" line.
Personally, I feel there were plenty of covid lines to choose from!

I only have the Simple Stories but the stamp set posted here is pretty cool. Adding that to my wishlist.

Personally, I feel there were plenty of covid lines to choose from! I never even think to look at Creative memories. I just looked those 2 up and I love them. I can't find the first one anywhere which is such a bummer, but I'm definitely getting the second line. Thanks for letting me know! |

I know you said you don't do digital, so this is totally unhelpful........  but we are spoiled for choice when it comes to digital kits with a COVID / Stay at home theme. Almost too many! Have you considered looking at digital kits and just buying the elements pack to print yourself at home? I know it's not ideal, because who wants to fussy cut stuff out instead of using stickers. |

There are CM resale groups on facebook if you feel you really have to have it. (I’m not affiliated with cm but I do like some of their products!) |

Close to my Heart also had a paper pack and about 5 stamp sets. I was actually surprised how quickly they had it available-- one was already available at the end of March 2020.

There were several designs in the Silhouette store if you use a Cameo cutter.

in a creative bubble had a fair amount of digital items (stamps, ephemera, PL style cards). Studio Calico has sold some of the stamps at least in physical form.

Just a thought on why there aren't more covid lines. Lots of scrappers do project life or scrap everyday moments. But, there are others that choose to just scrap the happy moments. For me personally, I don't need to relive last spring through scrapbooking. I will probably scrapbook some of our game nights, but that's it. My scrapbooks won't be an accurate or comprehensive reflection of our life, but I'm OK with that because that's not why I do it.

My scrapbooks won't be an accurate or comprehensive reflection of our life, but I'm OK with that because that's not why I do it. I wasn't posting on this board as much in 2021 so forgive me for bumping it. I actually bought 2 or 3 of those lines, and now I'm not even sure how I'll use them. And it's exactly due to the reason aj2hall said - I don't need to relive that much of it. Mine actually reflect my life during that time, but in reality, I didn't take a lot of pictures in 2020 or 2021, so it won't take that many layouts. And more of my pictures will work in my month in review pages. So I see myself purging some of what I've bought, and keeping some of it - mostly the stuff that isn't overly theme-y. |

I bought the pinkfresh line Lets stay home last year. I felt like it had a lot of phrases relatable to Covid and the lockdowns. Lets stay home pinkfresh |

Fairly certain I'd seen this one before, but wasn't in the mood to purchase. I shouldn't have clicked it with DD sitting here, because now it's been purchased and some of their Disney stuff... lol |

I got paper from Hobby Lobby with masks all over it. As was mentioned CM has two lines, Photoplay, and there was even a sticker sheet at Dollar Tree. Also check Scrapyourtrip.com. They have several designs. www.scrapyourtrip.com/currentevents.html |
