I only found this Scappers website today, it's amazing. I am an Irish Granny who has been scrapbooking since before I could walk !!! Our family has scrapbooks over 100 years old and the photos are not faded at all, not even the first colour ones taken in the 1960's have faded. I scrapbook the old fashioned way with SCRAPS!! Old cards, bits of fabric and wallpaper samples etc etc, buttons bought at boot fares, charity shops etc. I asked at a local decorating shop what they did with their old wallpaper sample books. As they just dumped them I asked if I could have them and they were only too pleased to be rid of them. Have had co-ordinating papers and borders and swatches of fabric that have lasted me years so far. Anyway now that I have found this website & all of you with similar hobbies I will no doubt get new ideas. Happy New Year everyone.
