| Truly enjoy this magazine | |
| I have been scrapbooking for more than five years, and I my style is rather simple. However, I recently found myself in a rut, and I began wishing I could do the fancier pages, so I began receiving Creating Keepsakes.
Although I still have no desire to do a two page spread that takes 5+ hours, this magazine has been great at inspiring me to try new things, as well as just giving me ideas for both scrapbooking and stamping, in just the first three issues of my subscription. They do a fairly good job of showing the expensive way to do a page, as well as the more economical. Additionally, there are product reviews and recommendations. I typically buy most of my supplies from at-home parties, I found a very helpful recommendation for a silent eyelet setter. Some of their articles are geared towards the more advanced/ambitious scrapbooker. For instance, a recent article explained how to use certain computer programs to augment photos. The results were beautiful, but this was just not up my alley. They also recently did a spread on the scrapooking rooms of some of their staff, and I was very, very jealous! I may never have any award-winning spreads, and I probably will never use my computer to augment my pictures, but I know my scrapbooking will be more creative and better looking due to this magazine. | |
| Great magazine!!! | |
| Creating Keepsakes gives plenty of layout Ideas to make a great scrapbook. It shows unique techniqes and styles that get you on your way to being an expert. If you love scrapbooking then I recommend this magizine. Not only does it give you great ideas but it has a special directory in the back to list some scrapbooking stores. Under each store name they give you the address of the store, the phone number and if there is a website its listed. Thats not all, they seperate the stores into the different countrys and states for easy lookup. For more information go to http://creatingkeepsakes.com/ | |
