Scrapbooking Kits

I have to take a moment to rave about scrapbooking kits. They are these packs that come with everything you need to make a two-page 12x12 layout. The best part is they only cost $6-$8 bucks/pack. If I tried to copy the page idea on my own, it would cost way more than that, plus tons of the work like coming up with the idea, picking complimenting papers, sizing and cutting the die cuts are all already done. Before we left for Hawaii, I spent about an hour one night, using my blade cutter, to cut all the strips and photo mounts (usually step 1 on the kit instructions) for about 20 kits. All I had to bring along on the trip were a few chalks, adhesive, and the kits. I was able to complete 18 kits while I was on vacation! I completed a few on the plane (it made the flight go way quicker), I did them at night when I wasn't ready for bed, and I did them while others were napping or reading books. I really enjoy doing them and it felt great to be so productive while on vacation. I can't recommend these kits enough! If you are interested here are a few of my favorite sites: www.outonalimbscrapbooking.com and www.lottstoscrapabout.com.
