Scrap Conversion

[Mon]

Iknow all us girls here are die-hard scrappers 
But, have you ever converted anyone?
I got my sister Lily into scrapping and she is now as addicted to it as the rest of us, lol
My MIL was next, but she is more into cardmaking, that seems to be her thing.
Who have you converted and do you scrap with them?

Well yes/No ... but my daughter was and is at present into doing some scrap layouts for her youngest boy, she didn't really do anything for the first apart from putting photo's in frames - as she knew I was doing stuff.

This time round she has (when has time) done a little scrapping - and totally enjoys it !!  Great visit at my place

Sounds like me Maggie, I'm busy scrapping my daughter's travel photos. I guess when she finally stops travelling she might do her own 

Wonder if I'll ever finish MY own LOL

I cant say I've converted anyone, but I have 'outed' some closest scrapbookers LOL.  We occasionally get together for crop nights and share ideas now we all know each others 'secret'.

Apart from the fact my GS1 likes to do the poster kind of stuff - does anyone have a "MALE" that is a Timmy want a be ?!!

My DH does roll his eyes but I will admit he may help me cut PP paper into strips (when my wrists ache) and on a occassion or two has done the eyelet settings for me & other odds & ends    he does have a sneaky peek at any new gadgets hahaha

Not converted as such ... but I dragged my baby sister to the beginners class when i decided I wanted to see what it was all about ! We have both been scrapping for about 4 years now .. tried to get my big sister to join us and she has done a couple of pages ... but she is a bit of a scrooge and I don't think the ... "oh my I have to have that because look at the way it sparkles!" attitude will ever catch on with her !!

Lmao Maggie. Mine does prefer to be a scrapping widower than a scrapper - but he does help me out at times with the "can you get this straight for me' and the 'can you work out how to do this punch all around the edges' before we got the ones from Martha Stewart that would. Generally I just ask him what he thinks of things - which gets me the useless "it's ok". 

DS2 used to scrap. Went to some kids classes and was interested. Not sure why he let it lapse other than the usual getting to be a teen boy thing.

Yes Ness - you really need the whole "it sparkles, I love it, I want it, I must have it" attitude to be rabid scrapper. 
Have it in bucket loads myself - with the stash to prove it.

I swear, if all the scrapbooking manufacturers of the world shut down tomorrow, we could all go down to Ngaire's and keep scrapping lmao 
We'd never run out of flowers
