I’ve never done a Christmas scrapbook but would love to try. All the new things to help make a scrapbook personal and unique are a real plus for those of us diy’ ers…… Fun time!! Thanks!
Yes, I have made a Christmas scrapbook
Actually, I’ve never made a scrapbook period, if you can believe it! I love crafting but didn’t know much about scrapbooking until my mom got into it. She made a beautiful book for my oldest daughter and was preparing to start one for my other daughter. Unfortunately, she passed away very unexpectedly, two days before Christmas. My plan is to make one for my youngest, in honor of my Mom. She was much craftier than me, but it’s the effort that counts, right? 🙂
I haven’t scrap booked before, but now (finally) have the time to start!
I’ve made a lot of different scrapbooks and altered books!
My shameful secret is I have tools to make a scrapbook but never manage to organize my pictures (and I am not the best photographer anyway!).
But I adore papercrafting and make memories (and greeting cards) instead.
Nope, I have not made a Christmas scrapbook….yet! Now that I’ve got more free time and my creativity is unleashed, this is an area for me to explore!
I have done christmas pages in my scrapbook but never a whole book devoted to christmas
I have not. Enjoy scapbooking, but just do it once in awhile.
I haven’t, actually, but this inspired me to try to do one this year!
I’ve made a scrap book but not just for Christmas. Something for me to think about.
I’ve never done a Christmas scrapbook but I have made scrapbooks as Christmas gifts!
I’ve never made a scrapbook.
No, I have never made a scrapbook. Lots of cards though.
I love to make jewerly…but my husband wants me to do scrapbooking, this would be nice to get me started.
No, I have not made a Christmas scrapbook, I would love to try making one! This set sure would help! Thanks for offering it.
I have never made a Christmas scrapbook, but have made many of trips abroad. This year would be a good year to start w/ a new grandson.
I have not made a Christmas scrapbook, but I would love to!
I have not made a Christmas scrapbook before
I have made scrapbooks, but not a Christmas one. Maybe I should do one this year.
No, never made a Christmas scapbbok. BUT I use a lot of Spellbinders dies (no Christmas ones yet). Iknow, cheeky….
Love love love! Hope I can call it mine! 🙂
I haven’t done that but it does sound like a great idea.
I haven’t managed to finish one scrapbook yet and my daughter is turning 4! I spend more time making cards.
I have not made a Christmas scrapbook. They look really neat and should be fun to make.
I have made Christmas scrapbook pages for a scrapbook, but never thought about making one for the Christmas holiday. The is a very good idea, put one wonderful day in a book by itself to make a memorable entire day instead of just a few pictures in another scrapbook. I am going to have to do that this year.
No. I have never made a Christmas scrap book. Think it would be fun.
No, I haven’t made one — yet! Eager to make one!
I’ve recently moved away from my family. My sister and cousin used to help me with this kind of thing. So I’ll need help getting started without them.
I love to scrapbook, and though I have never done a specifically christmas themed scrapbook, I have christmas pages in my family scrapbooks.
I have done Christmas scrapbook pages but not a whole Christmas book.
No, I’ve never made a Christmas scrapbook.
ha, funny, christmas album. I laugh because Christmas is the hardest holiday for me to scrap. I would need to finish some layouts before I ever attempted an album. Thanks for the chance,
I love making Christmas projects, including scrapbooks. Love the dies!
Yes, I have made a few Xmas Scrapbooks
I made a Christmas scrapbook and gave it away as a gift.
I have done several vacation themed scrapbooks and one for each of my grandchildrens but no Christmas themed scrapbooks.
I’ve never made a Christmas scrapbook.
None of the scrapbooks that I have made are only made up of Christmas’s. I had never had that idea before but now that I am thinking on it I would love to do one. The way I would want to do mine would be a multi generational grouping of different Christmas’s in each branch of my family. I probably could find Christmas pictures of when my mom was little but that would be as far back as I could go, I know that on my father’s side I have pictures of Christmas before I was born but not to far before that. It would be a great addition to show how our family has grown so large that we can no longer have Christmas at someone’s home we have to hold it at our church’s in turn. If you have not guessed I am an amateur genealogist as well!
No, not yet. But I would sure start one with this set!
Not a whole Christmas scrapbook, but I add lots of Christmas layouts to all my scrapbooks
I’ve never made a scrapbook before but this would help me get started.
Last year I made a December
Daily album. Got prompts from
Heidi Swapp for daily events
and took pictures to go along.

No, have never made a scrapbook for Christmas or any other time! But would love to try
Upon retiring, I began scrapbooking and have made over two dozen scrapbooks for family members. Nearly all contain Christmas pages; however, I’ve never made a scrapbook just for Christmas. I’d love to win this prize, as I hope to create another 20 to 25 scrapbooks for additional family members. It’s a relaxing, fun and rewarding hobby! Thank you. Margaret Figert

I make a Christmas scrapbook every year, we love looking at the over the holidays.
I have never done a Christmas scrapbook page before. To be honest I have done a total of scrapbook page in my life! I think that is the one paper craft that I just don’t get.

Would love to make one, I make cards and that takes most of my time!
No i have not, but my sister has.

The last scrapbooks I designed and help put together was from 1988-1991 for Woodmen of the World. They were for their scrapbook contest. Won every year but 1991 when my water actually broke while getting my children ready to meet several ladies to work on our scrapbooks. Was a very memorable time. Good times. Lol
