I didn't notice that you had to have 50 posts to look. I think I'm almost at 50.

What is the last scrappy thing you bought? Huge for me order from Scrapbook.com. Mostly paper with a few other goodies thrown in for good measure. AE stamps and a hexagon shaped punch. I'm excited about playing with both of those.

I've got lots of SC to post, too. I just need to take photos and figure prices.

Have you ever attended a crop? Yes - once. It was with people at work and awhile ago. Some were friends of people at work and one was preparing for a weekend crop. She was getting all her supplies organized and together. My friend and I just watched her most of the time!

I just got the notice that I'm a "shy member." I wasn't that shy on 2Peas -- I had a grinning Pea (with teeth and everything!). I'm hoping to get to 50 posts, because I have a TON of stuff, including SC stuff, to post for sale. (And I kinda sorta might sometimes buy some things ...)

I've been scrapbooking since 2002. I was beginning the paperwork to adopt our DD from China. A fellow mom in the Waiting Parents group (also doing her paperwork) was a CM consultant. She and I got together. My very first scrapbooking page was the very first page in my Our Adoption Journey album. It had a paper-pieced picture of a little Asian girl holding a tiny China flag and a tiny U.S. flag.

I mostly scrapbook 12x12, but I did PL for most of 2012. LOVED it, but it was definitely difficult to keep up with. I'd do things like take a photo of my eye doctor, during my eye exam. (He was cool -- he's kind of goofy.) I loved taking the photos, but I had a bad habit of putting off the scrapping until I was a couple of months behind, and since I was taking a photo a day -- that was 60 pictures. I lasted until the last three months of the year, though. I do have the pictures selected -- someday I will finish the album. I really enjoyed doing it.

I've been to about 6 or 7 SDVs -- Scrappers' Dream Vacations. My best friend and I would go and make a weekend of it. (This was back before the SDV company folded, before my best friend moved several states away, and ... while DH and I had more money to spend on our hobbies!)
After the SDVs stopped, there was one awesome weekend where my friend and I got a hotel room with a conference table and scrapbooked all weekend. We only stopped to make fast-food runs. It was so great -- I got about 20 pages done that weekend, and they were all pages that made me happy, not just pages that I did to "get them done." (There's nothing wrong with doing pages to get them done -- I just feel happier when I spend the time and effort on making a page look like I want it to look.)

My most recent scrapbook purchase was a few days ago -- I used my meager hobby "allowance" to buy a set of page protectors for a SNAP album. These are a set of the newest design -- they hold 2x2i photos! I'm contemplating going with a SNAP album if I pick up PL again. Or, I could use them for a December Daily. I got the last pack of them at scrapbook.com. 2Peas has "trained" me to buy a supply when I see it in stock, because I think that they won't restock! I learned about the page protectors here, on this thread: wannapea mentioned them, and I knew I had to have them! PL in 6x8 size

How long of have you been scrapping? I've been scrapping for 12 years. I went into a scrapbook store by mistake and found Becky Higgins' Creative Lettering book and that's how I learned about it. Loved to draw letters so it sucked me in!

Do you prefer paper or digital scrapping? Paper all the way! Love the cutting and the adhesive and everything about paper!

Do you generally make cards or scrapbook? I do both. I love to make mini-books and Christmas cards.

Do you buy/sell more than you actually scrapbook? We all know that's half the fun! I used to. Now I'm just trying to make it to 50 posts so I can do a purge of supplies that hopefully someone else can benefit from.

Do you listen to music or watch tv while you scrap? Neither. I tend to tune things out. So even if I had music on, after a few minutes I would tune it out and not even hear it. And I don't like to have the TV on if I'm not following along.

I was just looking for it and then saw the rules where you have to have 50 posts in order to see it. I'll make it eventually!

It will take me a while to get there too, but it's good to be motivated to come out of lurk-dom. Can't wait to see it!

How long of have you been scrapping? A friend introduced me to SB about 10yrs ago?! I buy, hoard and admire the supplies more than I scrap! But since starting photoaday in 2009, I have started using my stash .... The buying never stopped of course

Do you listen to music or watch tv while you scrap? TV. My craft table le is just near the tv. Sometimes I do scrap on and forget to watch it. But it's good company to have some noise and moving visuals to distract me sometimes. It helps esp when my brains are stuck trying to figure out why my LO looks incomplete

Do you prefer paper or digital scrapping? PAPER!! I have too much stash to go into digital scrapping heheh i do like to touch, feel and see my crafts that didn't stop me from buying digital though. Bought them more to reprint papers / PL cards that I like. Adding brushes to photos before printing them.

How long of have you been scrapping? I have been scrapping since 1998 when my daughter was six months old. I walked into a craft store and saw half an aisle of scrapbook supplies. Mostly Francis Meyers kits and some Fiskars tools. I was hooked from that day onward.
