Does anyone get magazine's for new ideas? I get Papercrafts and Creating Keepsakes for ideas and seeing all the new products coming out.
What magazines do you read/look at/buy or subscribe to?

I get Creating Keepsakes, because I like most of Becky Higgins' sketches. I was given gift subscriptions to Memory Makers and Scrapbooks, Etc., but can go through them pretty fast. Non-scrapbooking magazines that make it in the door are Sunset, Oregon Coast, and a church magazine. And my husband must be on every catalog mailing list in the universe!

I have a subscription to Creating Keepsakes, got a free year for buying a disney album at Target (and got it on clearance too). I won't buy a subscription for it but liked the year for free.

I get Creating Keepsakes, Scrapbooks ETC, 2 different Stamp and Card ones too.
I got them all as gifts. They are ok. Can't say that I ever used them to create anything.
I just look at them for a little while, then sell them on ebay.

Beth,
If they are back issues, sometimes you can get more than retail for them.
I just sold over 90 mag, and made close to 500 bucks.

;D Good idea Beth. I don't have real oldies since I have been "collecting scrapbook suplies" for only a year and a half approximately, but I should check and try to sell on the E.
Even if I make 50.00 I'd be ok (and DH will be thrilled)

Okay I know this sounds really cheap and it is but clever. I talked my Dentist into getting Papercrafts in for women. He didn't have anything good! Just try to keep his patients happy. And I talked my Medical centre into getting Creative Keepsakes! Too many fashion magazines there. Now I just need some place to get Cards and I'll be all set! Laura. <><

Ah Laura, you are an inspiration. How cleaver. My problem is, I hate to visit the doctors and only see the dentist twice a year, okay, maybe three times a year with one cavity. I'd never get a chance to read them  at their place. |

Hi Beth, You have to get them to save the old copies for you. With 4 of us we are usually at the dentist every 3 months for cleaning. We always make the appointments for each person every 6 months. Very rarely do more than 2 people go at the same time. I can't stand waiting. As for the doctor I go every week ( well I am supposed to ) for Iron injections. I have just thought of the Optician ........ She may be another good place for a subscription!! ?? !! I will have to think about her office!  Got to work on that one. She may prove a little more of a challenge. I need to check out her selection. ;D ;D ;D Laura. <>< |

I subscribe to Memory Makers, but will let it go, when my subscription expires. I do like the magazine but wit all the online galleries and blogs, I can browse so many LOs and cool projects for free. I've learned a lot techniques from them over the years as they used to have more informative articles than CK, so I think I've gotten my money's worth out of my subscription.
I like scrapbooks etc. but they don't do international subscriptions so I get it when I order something from a German online store that has a copy left.
