Buying a Gift For a Scrapbooker

A scrapbooker is easy to buy for! They can never have enough cardstock, patterned paper, stickers, embellishments, idea books. You don`t even know what that is? There are lots of scrapbook shops on and off line with staff that will help you put together a gift that WILL be appreciated.

• Cardstock: Plain heavy weight paper in an unbelievable number of
  colors. The easiest is to pick up a package with a variety of
  colors. 12 x 12 is the most commonly used size.
  
  
• Patterned Paper: There's an unbelievable selection of fancy
  papers - pick a few individuals or a package. Vellum is also
  popular - it's a translucent paper - either plain or patterned.
  
  
• Stickers: Think about the person's life (babies, small children,
  geographic location, gardener, rural, etc) and pick a variety of
  stickers that relate to their life. The choice is endless.
  
  
• Cutouts & Punchouts: Cardstock with pictures on it to cut or
  punch out. Less expensive than stickers, not as large a selection
  but lots of wonderful choices.
  
  
• Embellishments: fibers, shimmering sand, eyelets, brads, wire,
  ribbon - every day people are coming up with new ideas for
  embellishments we can add to our layouts (scrapbook pages!) There
  are some great embellishment kits that contain a variety of these
  items in a theme: Christmas, fall, beach, etc.
  
  
• Do-It-Yourself Calendar: these are blank calendars that
  artists, scrapbookers, crafters, or children can decorate. It's a
  fun project and something they can use all year.
  
  
• Markers & Pens: Glittery, shimmery, black - they are all useful.
  
• Adhesives: a scrapbooker can never have too much adhesive! It
  gets used so quickly. Some popular ones are glue dots, foam
  squares, and mounting squares.
  
  
• Albums: Of course they need albums to fill with beautifully
  decorated pages. There's albums for every taste from plain to very
  elaborate (and of course more money!)
  
  
• Idea Books: Choose from basic how to's, layout idea books,
  lettering idea books, books that list expressions to use in layouts
  and cards, or a subscription to a Scrapbooking magazine.
  

There's also mugs, T-shirts, Italian Charms, and more about
scrapbookers and scrapbooking.

If shopping for scrapbooking supplies sounds too complicated why not buy a gift certificate to a scrapbook supply shop. Your scrapbooker will have fun picking out a gift.

You have no excuse, if the person you're buying for is a scrapbooker they're easy to buy for!
