I love to read magazines. I pick them up whereever I am and check them out. Usually I can enjoy most of any magazine at a doctor's office except Golf or a hunting/fishing mag. If it is a woman's mag, no problem. I have never seen a scrapbooking mag or a paper crafting mag in any kind of office. Sometimes, I will get a SB mag at the newsstand and have been wondering which SB/papercrafting mags you all read or subscribe to. Which are the best for SB and which are good for papercrafting or cards?

I like Scrapbooks Etc and Creating Keepsakes. Both offer lots of tips and layout ideas.
Brandy
Yep, those are the ones I subscribe to. I also get paper crafts, I used to really like it but lately haven't seen much in them so won't be renewing that one.blbabe1234 wrote:I like Scrapbooks Etc and Creating Keepsakes. Both offer lots of tips and layout ideas.

Yep, me too! And CardMaker.

I'll pick up a Scrapbooks Etc or Creating Keepsakes now and then. As far as subscribing, I subscribe to "The Men of the 57th"only. It's the official journal of the Men and Women of the 57th Bomb Wing, 12th Air Force, United States Army Air Force in World War II and I almost always read it cover to cover!
Charlene
Yes, I subscribe to both of these now this year, because I had so much trouble finding them in stores. I dropped Paper Crafts because it seemed to be focused on card making, rather than altered projects or scrapbooking or what I think of as paper crafts.blbabe1234 wrote:I like Scrapbooks Etc and Creating Keepsakes.

I love magazines in general, but I cannot bring myself to pay the money for them!!! So I get all my inspiration online
Scrapbooks Etc and CK for me, too. I still do PaperCrafts, but not sure I'd continue it. Sometimes I read Scrapbooks and Beyond or one of the others, but I don't like them enough to subscribe.

I have bought one or two and one was a card making one but I liked the techniques in it and figured I could use those same techniques for scrapbooking as well, since I rarely do cards. No favorites, I just occasionally look through at the store and see if it's worth purchasing.

The only two mags I subscribe to anymore are Grit and CardMaking. I love Cardmaking and save all the issues each year. I hate to loan it out for fear it wont come back to me.

I used to suscribe to Scrapbooks etc...but the three mags that came right before my suscription was up had nothing in them I liked or saved...so I stopped my suscription. I would LOVE to suscribe to Scrapbook trends--but it is a little to expensive for me as I tend to tear the magazines apart and save only what catches my eye.

I used to subscribe to Scrapbooks Etc but got really tired of seeing it in the stores a week before it arrived in my mailbox! but now I find most of my inspiration online, although I'll thumb through them in the store and pick one up if something catches my eye. Ones that I do tend to look at more than others are Scrapbooks Etc, CK, love Scrapbook Trends but beyond my budget, DH buys a couple of train magazines, I love National Geographic but haven't subscribed since my dad passed away 6 years ago.suslvgeo wrote:I used to suscribe to Scrapbooks etc...but the three mags that came right before my suscription was up had nothing in them I liked or saved...so I stopped my suscription.

I have Scrapbooks ETC I preferred taht over Creating Keepsakes - but even that is getting boring.
I have Ladies Home Journal and Good Housekeeping - but I find that I finish those within an hour or so.

Have a coke and a smile!
I don't subscribe to any right now - used to get Scrapbooks Etc and Creating Keepsakes, along with Time, Money, HandyMan, Consumer Reports, National Geographic, Oxygen, Women's Fitness..... I had about 7 coming in every month for my dh and myself, now I don't have any.....
I agree with the others about getting my inspiration online.

Same here. However, I do purchase old issues of Scrapbooks etc. and Creating Keepsakes at Archiver's when they go 75% off. The last time I did that the girl at the counter said "You know, most of the lines in that issue aren't even available anymore." I said "So". Inspiration is inspiration.
OCD is not an adjective. It is not a personality quirk. It is not synonymous with being organized. It is a complex and debilitating mental health illness that affects people of all ages and walks of life, and is defined by the presence of unwanted, intrusive thoughts and repetitive actions. I am an OCD warrior and I fight for my son.
