Where is your favorite place to shop for scrapbooking supplies?
My two favorite places to shop for scrapbooking supplies are Hobby Lobby and Archivers. Both stores have great supplies. You can always find really good deals on supplies at Hobby Lobby and you can find the very latest supplies and wonderful classes at Archivers.
Niella used the Color Me Crafty collection from Doodlebug to create this adorable crafty themed mini album. The cover and each page are shaped like giant tickets and there’s a disc binding on the edges and fun dangling charm hanging on the spine. The cover has a cute stack of Polaroids accent and a layered scalloped border with button pattern paper.
Inside she used more crafty pattern papers, embellishments, stickers, cardstock, puffy words and more to designs wonderful pages that have lots of room for crafty photos and journaling.
There’s even a pocket to tuck in mementos and ephemera. I love the color scheme of this collection, it’s so bright and cheerful! This little album project is perfect for all your memories of going to scrapbooking classes, crops, conventions, retreats, hanging out crafting with friends or pics of your craft room.
Visit the Doodlebug blog to learn more about this project and watch a flip through video.

I go to a lot of places. I love little hole-in-the-wall non-chain stores but they tend to be a little more expensive. AC Moore, Michaels, JoAnn’s are places I’ve shopped at consistantly. Archivers again seems epensive for the same things. My favorite supplies to shop for on a consistant basis are definitely patterned papers though so that might be affecting my answer.
Actually a lot of my scrapbooking supplies like scissors and punchouts have come from a catalogue my mom likes to shop from and I’ve received them as gifts.
Hobby Lobby and Archivers are the places I go to the most. I really enjoy the classes at Archivers and that they have a place where you can work on your scrapbook in the store. I have visited Dee’s a few times, and they have some really cute stuff also.
