Has anyone gone to a scrapbook convention? I have gone to about 5 of them now and you get to see every kind of scrapbboking supplies you ever need or want. Plus you get a chance to win stuff as every 1/2 or so they call off numbers that are pasted on the floor and if you are standing on that number you get a prize, plus door prizes etc. And if you like to volunteer you can sign up for volunteer spots and get paid $30.00 per shift every time we go we work at least 2 shifts to get spending money, also you will get your registration fee back so if you sign for 2 shifts registration is $20.00 get paid $30.00 per shift altogether you get $90.00 spending money cash too

It is good that you might go to a show soon, you can get anything that you need to finish your projects I do picture frames too I take a 5 X 7 photo then put it in a 8 X 10 frame an then put things around the photo looks very nice when done

I've never been to a scrapbook convention. I have gone to a couple of bead things, they were awesome, but in the end I only got a few things. One I got more than the other, but they were fun. I've been lot lots of science fiction conventions, now those are FUN!

Well, SF cons are more than just dealers rooms with vendors, tho they do have that, but I'm sure at the scrapbooking fair you get to meet designers, at SF cons you get to meet your favorite writers.

I have been to the Great American scrapbook convention in Chantilly several times. I love going and seeing the new products, and of course all the great buys you can get there. I'm hoping to make the other one, which is in Arlington in May. But I am also planning a weekend retreat for May too. Gonna be a busy month! but lots of scrapbooking involved. I just got back from a 3 week trip out East and have a lot to scrapbook.
