Carol asks…
What are some good paper trimmers for scrapbooking?
Hi, I would like to know
What are some good paper trimmers that you recommend for scrapbooking paper/paper crafts?
Thanks
the name of the brand & the name of the trimmer would be nice.
Also, it would be also nice to have images of it ![]()
What are some paper trimmers that you had a bad experience w/?

Scrappy answers:
Fiskars is always a good choice. I like the big desk top models.(#95807097) I find it is easier to cut a 12x12 sheet of paper. The scallop blade gives a very nice cut. This desk top model uses a rotary blade. There is a deckle blade too.
For a smaller, more portable one try Provo Craft-It is bright lime green and pink. It holds the paper firmly when cutting and it costs less than most brands.
Getting a rotary blade allows you to change your blade to other styles.

Susan asks…
What Kind of paper do you use when digial scrapbooking?
Ok. I'm not even started digital scrapbooking yet. I'm waiting for my MICROSOFT MS DIGITAL IMAGE SUITE to arrive in the mean time I am totally confused at what kind of paper to use. Do I use scrapbooking paper and will the picture show up or "bleed"? Or do I have to buy photo paper?
I have all my pics on my computer and I see in digital scrapbooking magazine really awesome set ups but I'm just not sure about what paper to print on.
Thanks

I do regular scrapbooking, as well as some pages done completely on the computer with my scrapbooking software. I used to use good quality photo paper for this purpose... But I ran into a problem. I found that in my case, the photo paper would "stick" to my sheet protectors in my scrapbook, especially in the dark areas where a lot computer ink was used. I didn't like this result at all, because the page looks glossy and darker in the areas where it was "sticking" to the cover sheet. So, after experimenting with a lot of different papers, I found that using Epson (or probably any brand is fine) matte brochure paper works great. That paper isn't glossy at all. The photos look pretty good printed out on this, and it is even a little cheaper than photo paper. My outlook on this is, if the photos start to fade over time, I can always re-print them out years from now. I save my scrapbook page files forever on an external hard drive.
Hope this makes sense. If you don't use sheet protectors, or you are not witnessing the "sticking" problem, then use some high quality photo paper.
One other option, if your scrapbooking software allows you to export your scrapbook page as a "jpg" or "bmp", and doing so doesn't lose too much quality.. You could get an 8x10 photo developed of your scrapbook page at any online photo developing place... The cost will be more but you'll get a nice glossy photo of your entire page and not worry about using up paper and ink. My software doesn't allow me to do this though.

Mary asks…
How is scrapbooking paper made?
I am looking for a detailed answer on how exactly scrapbooking paper is made. I know I could print some on my home computer, but I am looking for info on how 12x12 photo-realistic and designed paper is made and printed. Paper printed at home looks nothing like the matte finish of "professional" paper. I am starting a business and am wondering if making my own scrapbooking paper would be a financially feasible goal. Searches on the net have turned up no information, so maybe I'm just not looking under the right keywords. Any help would be mucho appreciated!

Linda asks…
Paper ideas? what to do with scrapbooking paper?
I always buy scrapbooking paper because I cant help it! Its SOOO pretty!!! but I have nothing to do with it because I dont relaly like scrapbooking! What can I make with it that will be fun?

Scrappy answers:
-You could always collage plain notebooks or decorate them using scrapbooking paper, quotes, magazine cutouts, etc. I love doing this cuz it looks awesome, is cheap, and people are always like, did you make this? And I'm like YES as a matter of fact I did!

-Another idea is to cover a pint sized paint can and decorate it to hold pens, pencils and markers or to use as a gift box.
-Old cookie sheets can be recycled by covering them with scrap booking paper and turning them into a magnet board for a bedroom or kitchen or something. This would make a great gift!
-Decoupaging a wooden picture frame with scrapbook paper is easily done with a few coats of Modge Podge and scraps of paper.
-You can always make cards too. It's creative and people always enjoy homemade cards.
I love scrapbooking paper too. It always seems like they make it cuter and cuter every time I see it! So, here's just a couple suggestions. Have fun!

Carol asks…
Paper Scrapbooking or Digital Scrapbooking?? Which is the best and more efficient way to go?? Thanks.?
I am really into digital scrapbooking, but I want to know if digital or paper scrapbooking is the best??? Which is more efficient?? Thanks.
Inappropriate answers will be reported!! Thanks!

Scrappy answers:
Here's the thing...what I love about scrapbooking is the community of getting together with friends and the therapy of cutting and pasting and creating. I spend enough time in front of the computer. And paper is timeless and you can touch it and even look at it by candelight if the power goes out. More efficient...I'm sure digital. But memories aren't necessarily supposed to be efficient. Whatever you decide though, do it either way because it's your story and you should pass it on... I won't judge.
