creating keepsakes has a brand new special issue hitting stands this week, called budget-friendly scrapbooking.
"Prepare to make your stickers, papers, die cuts, and more go further than you ever imagined possible. With the tips and tricks in this special issue from Creating Keepsakes, you'll learn how to create beautiful scrapbook layouts using your scrapbooking leftovers and minimal supplies. Whether you're a new scrapbooker or have been creating for years, we'll show you how to stretch your scrapbooking budget to its fullest."
here's a sneak peek at one of my layouts featured in this special issue. the idea was to use a themed collection, to create a non-themed layout.
i have a free copy to give away to one of my lucky blog readers! just leave me a comment, to be entered in the random drawing. i will leave comments open until thursday night, and announce a winner on friday.
Sounds like a GREAT and fun issue. Thanks for the chance to win it Laura. How was your weekend at CKC?

Looks like an awesome issue. Just what this college scrapper needs. Groceries consume most of my budget, so I work with my stash as much as possible. Thanks for the giveaway.

Budget-friendly scrapbooking is definitely an oxymoron...but I'd love to see the new ideas contained inside this magazine.

I tend to hang onto my supplies because they're too awesome to use so I need the reminder to use what I have in my stash instead of buying more:)
Thanks for the chance to win!
