Scrapbooking for young peeps?

Question

Okay, I am upset. I am 15, and I LOVE SCRAPBOOKIN! The thing is no one else except my ex best friend does it in my town. I really hate doing it alone because its not as exciting to see just your pictures. I like learning about other peeps. How can I break out of this? I tried to go to crops at craft stores but all it is, is just a bunch of really nice old ladies. But no one my age. I really hate doing this alone. I wish someone could help me!

Answer 1

Online scrapbooking might be a solution for you. You can try creating an account at PhotoAlbum.com and start building your scrapbook. Then send your account details to your friends and invite them to add to your book.

Answer 2

I am 19. Four years difference I know but it's all good. I think I am also the only younger girl in my small town who scrapbooks. My friends love to look at my scrapbooks and just tell me they wish they could do it. Look at it the way I do. I've been scrap booking for four years now, and I only have two of my own scrapbook because people have paid me to make ones for them. If you're the only person who does them, then people might pay you to make them for you. Make up some buiss. cards and distribute them.

Also if being alone is such a terrible thing then why don't you get your friends into it? Mine don't get into it very much but they don't mind me doing it around them. Plus they love to watch. You can find all sorts of layouts and sample pages people have put on the internet if you need ideas. Also normally the owners of shops are more than happy to help you with layouts.

Good luck Darling and if you need any help, tips, suggestions, recommendations.... anything... just e-mail me.
