Happy Scrapbooking Day! Getting Started with Supplies
It started as National Scrapbook Day, and it’s recognised as NSD or maybe iNSD for those who embrace the international participation, but I’m just going to make it easy and call it Scrapbooking Day. Sound okay to you? It’s today, by the way. The first Saturday in May, each year.
And to mark that special occasion of Scrapbooking Day 2011, there’s something special in store for you here at shimelle.com, all day long. Perhaps even all week long, depending on how you like to play!
Today I’m posting a series of challenges with new layouts, tips and tutorials, and each challenge has a prize up for grabs. Plus there are some bonus discounts and special offers coming up. But to get started, I’m all about getting some supplies ready.
The projects I’m featuring today are all made from the same supplies that I chose at the beginning. You can do the same and create a set of supplies then use them for all the challenges OR you can approach any of the challenges on its own and not worry about the supplies for the whole stretch. Cool? That way if you’re wanting to stretch your supplies as far as they can go, we’ll do that. And if you would rather take part in lots of NSD Scrapbooking Day challenges around the web with whatever supplies you fancy, you can do that too.
When I limit my supplies for a batch of layouts, I tend to grab four things: patterned paper, special paper, embellishments and letters. I like to choose things that will mix and match and are not overly themed, so I look for a mix of bold patterns and small patterns so there will be a balance. I also tend to go overboard on paper because I love it the most! (Shhh – don’t tell my other supplies.) So for today’s projects, I’ve set aside:
15 sheets of patterned paper, including Cosmo Cricket Upcycle and Social Club, American Crafts Hello Sunshine and Campy Trails, Sassafras Starters and Paper Crush and Sweetly Smitten, Studio Calico Countryside and Jenni Bowlin Family Tree. Which means I picked lots of different designs and manufacturers, but if you find it easier to stick with one collection, then that works too!
4 sheets of special paper, which is a very official term I’ve given to those things that are generally paper but they aren’t just a plain 12×12 sheet. I’ve chosen two sheets of dot-embossed Core’dinations Cardstock, one die-cut label paper by Jenni Bowlin Studio and one screen-printed transparency by Hambly.
5 types of embellishments, with my love of stickers really showing here! Three of the things I selected are all from the same collection – the large and small sticker sheet plus the banner stickers all from the Sweetly Smitten collection by Sassafras. In typing this, I’m thinking I may go pull the Sweetly Smitten foldie sheet too, though it’s not counted in this picture. Those stickers are all quite vintage and soft, so then I picked some stickers that are quite clean and modern, by American Crafts. And my non-sticker item is a butterfly, of course! These are wooden and by Studio Calico.
3 sheets of letters, and again I’ve gone with stickers. Letter stickers are really my go-to item with titles, especially a mix of sizes and some including dimension, so I have a shiny new pack of these Thickers by American Crafts and a smaller, flat set of Mini Market stickers by October Afternoon. Then the third option cheats a little bit, because this sheet of letters by Bella Blvd actually has four different alphabets on one sheet. Makes it great for packing for crops or working in a series like this. I’ve chosen brown and white but it comes in brighter colours too.
Now obviously there are some things missing here! If I use full sheets of cardstock for the background, I don’t count that. In this case, most of these pages will be on kraft cardstock, and I will just pull those sheets as I go. If you’re packing to go somewhere else, then you’ll need to that that with you! I also don’t include tools – so punches, cutting dies, stamps, inks and paints I will just choose as I go. That can help to change up the look even if the supplies remain the same. And lastly, if I’m scrapping at home I don’t worry too much about adding little things. If there’s something in my scrap basket or bowl of die cuts and I suddenly thing that’s what the page needs – then fine. The idea of the starting supplies is to make things easier, not to make everything else prohibited. So you won’t see any other major elements, but I might add in a scrap of paper or ribbon here or there. That’s pretty much my process!
Oh, and I don’t really use many themed papers, but I do like to include some themed things that can be subtle. I’ve been using this stamp set by House of 3 for Pink Paislee on many of my travel pages, so it’s pretty much living on my desk right now. I will admit I pretty much bought it for the globe, but the whole set looks lovely, and it stamps especially well with Distress Ink.
So there we go – that’s where I’m starting! But how about a GIVEAWAY to get Scrapbooking Day off to a great start? I have a pack of scrapbooking supplies to send to a lucky winner. Just comment on this post for a chance to win! (By the way, on some browsers, it helps to click the preview button when you’re leaving a comment.)

I have to see how much I can participate today – we have Ikea furniture coming and I might finally sleep on a bed again after 5 weeks of air-bedding it!
Still, the scrap supplies are out so there’s no excuse not to sneak in the odd layout or two.
7 May 2011, 04:46
Happy Scrapping Day Everyone

Happy Scrapbooking Day! No scrapping for me today I’m afraid as my parents are visiting so all my crafty stuff is packed away so they have room to sleep. Hoping for lots of inspiration as they are off home tomorrow so I get to unpack all my goodies and play again.
7 May 2011, 04:53
Thank you! A good way to get organised for the day!
7 May 2011, 04:53

7 May 2011, 05:08
Hey Shimelle! Very excited about NSD as just getting into scrapping again after a period of feeling uninspired, can’t wait for the challenges to get me going! Thanks!
Lucy
7 May 2011, 05:09
Happy SD! Thank you for your generous giveaway. I don’t tend to make up kits like that, but my current philosophy is to always look for part used card and paper before cutting into a new sheet. Mainly because my folders of part used are so full that paper is getting lost and crumpled in them!
7 May 2011, 05:10
Happy Scrapbook Day!
I am all set, chores have been done, cats fed. Have sorted stash, made a coffee and pulled up a chair. Let’s scrap!!

7 May 2011, 05:25
Happy Scrapbooking day Shimelle! It’s really useful to see your scrapping ‘thought’ process, I am new to packing for crops and this really helps – I keep packing the kitchen sink!
7 May 2011, 05:25
Looking forward to scrap a lot today!
7 May 2011, 05:32
My plans for today have been cancelled as I’m feeling a bit poorly; now I’m kind of glad about that! I can scrapbook instead! Happy Scrapbooking Day!
7 May 2011, 05:34
Happy Scrappy Day Shimelle & everyone out there. Papers, stash, coffee, sunshine & chocolate……what more could one ask for???
7 May 2011, 05:37

7 May 2011, 05:38
Happy Scrapbooking Day everyone! I’m loving those Studio Calico butterflies right now.
7 May 2011, 05:39
Really looking forward to some crafting time this weekend. I want to put some of your sketches to good use! x
7 May 2011, 05:42
OK Looking forward to the first challenge, My entire collection of supplies now fit into two artbin boxes and one RUB box (major clear out ) so I am going to go with whatever the challenge suggests rather than picking specifics for all day.
Next on my list, get kids started on homework, dispatch husband for an all day outing and then put ironing somewhere that I can successfully ignore it.
7 May 2011, 05:47
happy iNSD shimelle, looking forward to some gr8 inspiration in blogland today,
Jo xxx
7 May 2011, 05:49

Happy Scrapbooking Day! I am trying to build up motivation to actually scrap- it probably would be a good plan to pull out some stuff to start from! :)
7 May 2011, 06:24
Happy Scrapbooking Day – no scrapping for me as I have to pick my parents up from the airport – they’ve had a holiday like yours Shimelle but they took it a little slower over 5 months! :)
7 May 2011, 06:27

7 May 2011, 07:18
Happy Scrapbooking Day to everybody!!
7 May 2011, 07:24
Hurray for scrapbooking day! I love how you’ve essentially created a big kit for yourself out of your own supplies. I have had that idea in my head for a while now, but I’ve never been brave enough to try it. (Maybe that’s why I had such a hard time packing for crops, haha!) Just out of curiosity, how many layouts did you made out of the list of supplies you gave above? I’d be interested to know! :)
7 May 2011, 07:46
Happy NSD!! Thanks for your tips on getting started. My process always takes forever.
7 May 2011, 07:48
It’s a bit showery here today so I am taking the opportunity to scrap some pages. Hope you have a fun day.
7 May 2011, 07:57
Happy scrapbooking day! Hoping to get a chance to work on some things today.
7 May 2011, 07:58

7 May 2011, 08:10
Happy Scrapbooking Day, Shimelle! Thank you so much for the list of supplies – it’s helpful for a beginning scrapbooker like me to see how you prepare for a day of scrapping. Have a great day!!
7 May 2011, 08:11
Happy scrapbooking day – now am off to sit in my craft room for the afternoon and knock out some of these challenges :)

Happy Scrapbooking Day.
Finished first 3 challenges and was scrolling down for the LO of the week when I came across this post. Obviously didn’t get up earlier enough today as I missed this one!
Thanks for the chance to win
7 May 2011, 13:39
I love scrapbooking from a kit, too! I’m in the Counterfeit Kit Challenge, and we choose a kit club to “copy” each month from our stashes. It’s helped me a lot with putting my own kits together!
7 May 2011, 13:45
What a nice start to the day – though I’ve only just got here! I would certainly like a prize (who wouldn’t?), so please count me in!!
It’s been “family tidy the office” day today here, but tomorrow I get a whole day of scrapping at our Scrap Club’s monthly crop – so tomorrow will have to be my NSD!
7 May 2011, 13:50
Happy Scrapbooking Day! Now I’ve just got to get off the computer and do some actual scrapping! =P
7 May 2011, 14:44
Happy Scrapbooking Day! Love seeing your process for gathering supplies.
7 May 2011, 14:45
Had fun reading your posts today. Thanks for sharing :)
7 May 2011, 17:07
Love your list of starting supplies! Your layouts are lovely!
7 May 2011, 17:10
Happy Scrapbooking Day! Now I just need to find the time to actually sit down and scrap …
7 May 2011, 17:31
What wonderful goodies! Happy NSD to you!
7 May 2011, 17:48
Im thrilled youre doing this today Shimelle! And even more excited we have all week as I am currently stuck at work…lol
7 May 2011, 18:27
What fun – happy scrapbooking day Shimelle.
Julie
7 May 2011, 18:36
Hi Shimelle! I wish I could be scrapbooking but I have a very important event to attend today . . . my son graduates from college today!
7 May 2011, 18:41
Love that you choose to limit your supplies.
7 May 2011, 18:46
Wow, just found you from Craft Critique.
I’ll be back!
7 May 2011, 19:18
Happy NSD, Shimelle!
7 May 2011, 19:27
Interesting to read your process … I’ve been playing with home-made kits recently and it does work!
7 May 2011, 20:39
Wow, lots of challenges. Thanks. Happy day!
7 May 2011, 20:42
Scrapbooking Day is actually Mother’s Day here in Australia and I can think of no better combination – breakfast in bed, presents and a day to myself crafting!!
7 May 2011, 21:56
Any day scrapbooking is happy scrapbooking day in my book. You’ve got lots of fun goodies there to play with – enjoy!
7 May 2011, 22:24
Happy NSD! It’s been fun, hasn’t it?
8 May 2011, 00:54

Happy NSD!
8 May 2011, 04:23
Had a great NSD yesterday. Love the challenges.
8 May 2011, 05:21
Scrapbooking Day was great! Last year, I made (most of) an album in a day at Eclectic Keepsakes taught by you! That was fab! This year I went to a workshop taught by Sandie Vincent, which I also enjoyed.
8 May 2011, 05:58
thanks shimelle, brilliant starting point.
8 May 2011, 07:35
Well this all sounds very exciting! Hope I can find some time to play along!
8 May 2011, 07:51
Well, I’m supposed to be studying but I’m going to sneek off and do some scrapping this afternoon. It would be rude not to. Thanks for the challenges and extended deadline, very appreciated!
8 May 2011, 08:57
Thanks for the giveraway and great challenges too x
8 May 2011, 09:41
Happy Scrapbooking Day! I’ve not been scrapping as such today – catching up on my project 365, but still involves photos so I’m happpy!! x
8 May 2011, 13:10
Happy Scrappin! Thanks for all the great challenges!
8 May 2011, 14:14

8 May 2011, 16:26
Always up for a few challenges and giveaways! I have some photo’s to scrap so I will be crafting tomorrow on my day off work. :)
8 May 2011, 16:52
I’ve so enjoyed the challenges. Thanks so much!
8 May 2011, 17:55
That is a very pretty stamp set! I have just come back from Paris so have missed all the NSD fun, but hurrah for new photos to scrapbook, and these challenges will certainly help. :)
8 May 2011, 18:50
Unfortunately I’m travelling during NSD so hopefully tonight I will play catch up : )
8 May 2011, 19:17
Think I have that psychic thing Mel has. Came back from a crop (my first :) :):)) with four LOs which matched soooo many challenges here and at 2 peas. I’ll do a few more this week though – looks like fun.
8 May 2011, 19:35
I just love supplies …almost as much as scrapping itself!
8 May 2011, 20:01
Hi and thanks for all the inspiration this weekend, between here, 2peas and a few others I have managed 11 layouts this weekend!! Time to print some more pictures…
9 May 2011, 03:22
I love a bit of instruction and guidance to help me get organized and focused. Thanks!
9 May 2011, 08:45
would love to win some goodies!
9 May 2011, 10:04
looks like you had a great weekend of scrapping, shim!
i’m just now finding all of your posts! :)
i wanted to add, i bought that stamps set for the globe, too, and am loving the entire set! :)
xo,a
9 May 2011, 12:26
Wow, 8 layouts! How awesome! Love the supplies you used as a approach for the crop! Maybe I should do that! TFS!
9 May 2011, 13:43
I missed Scrapbooking Day this weekend but think I might make this week ‘Scrapbooking week’ to compensate. Thanks for the inspiration.
9 May 2011, 15:03
I was sick on Saturday – ugh! SO I’m super excited that you are letting us “scrap” all week! Really excited to get going! :)
10 May 2011, 07:30
Happy scrapbooking day/weekend… Unfortunately with all I had on – there was no scrapping done, and will still be none this weekend as we’ll be playing tourists/guides with my partner’s parents who we just can’t wait to see… But, that means a whole week more probably before I pull out my stuff…
10 May 2011, 19:03
Love the supplies you pulled! I am a heavy paper user, too. :)
11 May 2011, 04:21
ouch..I’m late. so happy belated NSD. I,m interested to join ur challenge. will try all of them :D
11 May 2011, 07:13
So. so pleased I haven’t run out of time to join in. I missed most of NSD with family visiting. We ahd a great time but I had the shakes a little from wanting to get on my some scrapping :)
11 May 2011, 09:13
Had to work during the scrap weekend so glad to be able to still be involved. Thanks! Like your idea for pulling basic supplies together before a crop..will definitely remember that for next time.
11 May 2011, 10:10
I have those same H03 stamps and I absolutely LOVE them!
11 May 2011, 13:08
I guess I forgot to comment on this one! I did get all of the challenges done, so thank you! ~Jen
11 May 2011, 14:32
Happy Scrapbooking Day and setting my homework for this week to try and do all the challenges.. how do you find the time?! can’t wait for more ~ Louise
11 May 2011, 19:52
Happy Belated Scrapbooking Day! I was hoping I’d have time on Mother’s Day to do some scrapbooking but I’m still waiting….
11 May 2011, 20:58
I’m a little late on the Scrapbooking Day challenges but hoping to participate in a few. Thanks for continuing to inspire your readers with great projects!

Thanks for all the great Scrapbooking Day challenges! I have been really inspired and actually had a go at a few instead of saying “maybe I’ll do a challenge one day”!
