Wednesday Sponsor Giveaways: Elise Blaha, ReVa, Studio Calico, & SheyB
One person will receive a spot in Elise Blaha's Get Crafty workshop.
Get
Crafty
is an online workshop led by Elise Blaha. Over two weeks, this class will explore
techniques on how to build mini books and layouts from the ground up.
We will break away from the traditional scrapbooking products and
design our own paper and embellishments. Each weekday, there will be a
lecture, a project, an idea to try that day and an idea to save for
future use. In addition, there will be photos, journaling prompts and
giveaways. Class starts on June 1st.
One person will receive the June kit from ReVa (click to see the full list of supplies). Read more about Rebecca on her personal blog here.
One person will receive the June Studio Calico kit called Soda Fountain.
One person will receive a camera strap and a lens bag in their choice of the fabric from *Shey*[B].

oh boy! One thing I wish i would have known or at least thought of was that not EVERY picture has to make it in the book. There can be a simple photo album to accompany the albums. Wonderful giveaways! It would be amazing if my number was drawn :)

My advice is to purchase a very basic kit - cutting tool, mat, some scissors and then attend a couple of beginnners classes to really evaluate what you might need. When I first started, I reced out and bought all sorts of gadgets - many of which I have never used!

My advice is that there's no wrong way to scrap and you don't need all the fancy stuff to get started! That and don't restrict yourself to one size or medium.

I wish someone had told me that I didn't have to have ALL the tools in order to be a scrapbooker.
It's the simplicity of the craft that I love the best -- why did I have to make it soooooo difficult!?!?
Paper, pictures, a good journaling pen, and a glue stick. Boom. You're a scrapbooker.
You don't have to have a scrapbook room in your house to love what you do. STOP TRYING SO HARD!
Okay. Sermon time for Amy is now over...

I would tell them to check out magazines, books and blogs (like yours!) to find layout they like and then scrap-lift them. That way, they can get over the fear of starting and produce results. As time goes by, their own style will emerge.
