I’ve been crafting my entire life (68 years) –my mom was a crafter so we were always creating.
I started way back in the day when scrapping meant colored cardstock and fancy scissors! My style has changed a lot since then.
I have been crafting since 1998! Almost 20 years now. 🙂
I’ve always been into some kind of craft. Started out learning how to sew when I was a child and doing other kiddie crafts.
Went to crochet, macrame, ………
Can’t see myself never doing some kind of craft thing.
I have been crafting since the early 80’s – started with counted cross stitch embroidery, then ventured into beaded jewellery but now I love to make cards especially for the children at Sick Kids hospital in Toronto. If I win, I would love to share this with my niece, Krista who is a scrapbooker and cardmaker. She is also a CTMH consultant and she has taught me a lot.
I’ve been crafting for 20 years!
I have been crafting since I was a little girl but I have been paper crafting for about 28 years.
Made cards and scrapbooks as a child in the 60’s, re-started both as a hobby in about 1998…lots of other crafts, too! My bff partner in crafting crime is Theresa.
Crafting for as long as I can remember. love your magazine, and would love a subscription!
I’ve been crafting for over 10 years. Even my boys are starting to make cards with me!
I have been crafting pretty much my entire life, so a little over 40 years. I started out with embroidery, moved on to counted cross stitch, then painting, and now scrapbooking and card making. I dabble in making chocolates and other fun things to eat now and again as well.
Congrats on 10 years! Fantastic giveaway!! I would love this prize. I’ve been scrapping for about 18 years.
Since I was a youngster my Mom encouraged all things creative. Many decades I’ve been crafting — sewing, needlepointing, cross stitching, paper crafting, floral arranging, etc.
I started paper crafting about twenty years ago. I love it! It’s such a satisfying feeling to put the final touches on a layout.
I started “scrapbooking” when I was in Brownies/Girl Scouts about 50 years ago. Back then it was construction paper, tape, and a lot of pages with photos, ribbons, awards, etc. stuck on thick paper that I am not quite sure what type of paper it was. The albums were quite large and bound with string that had a tassle on the end. Scrapbooking has really changed and so have the supplies. I love working with the current supplies and I think the end results illustrate the new materials.
I’ve been crafting in one way or another since I was a kid. My sister taught me to crochet long ago and I picked up cross stitch and actually worked for a cross stitch artist for a while. But my love for paper crafting started in 2007 when a friend introduced me to stamping. I was hooked. So I still do a combination of crafts but I seem to have settled into paper crafting as my favorite.
I have been scrapping since 1996 but was a little crafty as a kid. My mom and I used to get a “kit of the month” when I was little. I had forgotten about that til now. Thanks for the memory!
I have been crafting for 45 years give or take a few months! LOVE your magazine and would love to share it with my best and dearest friend Kathy! Thanks for the chance to!
Well I’ve been crafting for probably 15 years, but more regularly in the last 2-3
Crafting ever since I can remember! I started stamping about 29 years ago when my daughter was in preschool! So I have been a cardmaker since then! I’d share with my stamping pal Laura!
I have always been a crafter in one form or another: sewing, knitting, crocheting, cross stitching….
Scrapbooking came into my life about 11 years ago and am still as excited about it and have no plans to stop LOL
Thanks for the opportunity to win such a fab prize 🙂
I have been crafting on and off since I was elementary school.. But it’s been 7 years I have been focusing on crafting 🙂
I still look through the first scrapbook I ever made in high school of my interest in swimming…so 40 years ago now….man! That sounds like a lifetime or 2 ago. I didn’t start working on them regularly until our oldest son was about 9, he is now almost 29… I love looking back and remembering
Serious scrapbooking since 2003 and card making and stamps since 2011. Basically since I retired and have time.
But liked all crafts all my life.
I’ve been crafting for so long I don’t even remember the number of years although it has been about 11 years I’ve been making cards. Thanks for the oppportunity to win a subscription to Scrapbook and Cards Today magazine for a friend and me!
I started crafting in high school or maybe even before then. I did a form of scrapbooking in college and then moved on to cross stitching. Now I am back to scrapbooking and that is my favorite!
I have been crafting all my life, but it was in 2002 when I found my home in scrapbooking. Like many of us, I started with a CM party. Did a scrapbook of their lives for each of my kids.
Then I discovered I had a bunch of crafting supplies, and started scrapbooking my grandkids’ lives. I have been hooked ever since.
When I retired in 2005, I had more time to devote to this hobby. Started card making a few years ago, and now I very seldom purchase a card.
feels like I’ve been crafting for years 🙂 I’ve done a variety of things too. photography, sewing, quilting and now scrappin n cardmaking
It feels like I’ve been scrapbooking and making cards forever! It definitely has been at least 17 years but possibly more. I would love to win a subscription for me and my best crafting friend Jodie!
Awesome shares! Seems like I’ve been crafting forever, but paper crafting for about 20 years now. Started with little triangles and straight lines, it’s amazing what people who are just starting can do now a days! I would share with my crafting buddy Carolyn Spicer!
I’ve been crafting my whole life! I’ve always loved to color and my mom taught me to sew when I was in elementary school or younger. I made construction paper scrapbooks, religiously labeled my photos, and made more and more elaborate scrapbooks and photo albums as I got older. Crafting helps me to be me.
Congratulations on 10 years!!!
I have been seriously addictively paper crafting for about 9 years. I would so love to win a subscription to your magazine & I know that my friend would too. Thanks for the chance.
Crafting since I was small. Paper crafting, Scrapbooking since just before my Mother died in 2005.
I was going to get the family history before she passed-I just didn’t realize the task. Still not finished, still not organized…but I love it.
I started scrapbooking in 1996 when I got invited to a Creative Memories party. Shortly after that I started making cards. Also have an art journal and occasionally I like to make holiday home decor pieces.
Thanks for the chance to win.
I have been stamping and cardmaking since 2001! This year will be 15 years for me. I still love it. 😀

Crafting forever ~ scrap booking & card making since 1996
In one form or another, all of my life!
I’ve been crafting since I was a child, my Mom was very creative and talented. My sisters say I inherited that gene! I’m now 63 so that’s a heck of a long time! ?
I’ve always been crafty, but I’ve only gotten more ‘serious’ about it in the last year or 2. It’s something that became a more important part of my life just when I needed a distraction from the relentless hold of chronic illness. Crafting is a wonderful creative outlet and provides me with much peace and joy. How exciting it would be to win inspiration for a year for both myself and my crafty BFF Nicole!
I have been crafting since I was very little. Scrapbooking for 20 years and stamping for 16 years. I also do other crafts which all keep me busy and happy. I LOVE your magazine and have subscribed to it the last few years. I would love to share a subscription with my bestie, Carol.
I have been making cards for about 5 yrs now. I was more the tomboy type so never crafted much as a kid. I would add stickers to my pen pal letters & envelopes & that was my crafting lol now I send my home made cards at Christmas & I think some are very surprised lol… I am glad my daughter doesn’t take after me 🙂 Thanks for the inspirations in your Scrapbook & cards today magazine 🙂
I have been crafting almost my entire life and I am now 70. I started sewing as a child and of course drawing as most kids do. This led to cross titch, counted cross stitch, crewel, needlepoint, candlewicking, plastic canvas, hooking rugs, pin and ink, watercolor, acrylics, handmade jewelry, scrapbooking and now card making. I now teach 3 classes a month on scrapbooking and card making. As much as I love my paper crafts one of my greatest joys was teaching my Mother to do counted cross stitch. The first modern type scrapbook I did was a family heritage one I gave to my parents for Christmas several years before they passed away.
I’ve been crafting 12 years! When I retired I really started in earnest. Made two lifetime albums for my two grown kids to start me off and I haven’t stop! Now i have my own Etsy store and make mini albums and cards for family! I JUST LOVE IT!
I have been scrapbooking since the 1980’s and it was so comforting to me when my 4 month old grandson died in 1990 and I was able to make a scrapbook in his memory.
I’ve been crafting since the 1960’s started with sewing then on to other interesting facets! Love all sorts of inspiration!
I can’t remember not crafting. I just turned 51 yesterday so I guess that I have been crafting for at least 50 years.
I don’t remember when I wasn’t crafting!
I started scrapbooking in 2009 but have always been in love with crafting.
I have been crafting most of my life starting with making pictures with tissue paper. I love that I can made so many things. I love new ideas and would truly enjoy a subscription to your magazine!
I’ve been scrapbooking for about 15 years and got my best friend, Stacy, hooked about six years ago.
I didn’t get started crafting until Mom showed me how to cross-stitch … I was in my early 20’s then. So at least 25 years. Thanks for the chance to win!
I’ve crafting since I was at school – I can remember making cards for my friends.
I’ve been crafting forever, scrapbooking for about 25 years. So hard to believe the time that has flown by, and how much has changed, and stayed the same!

I’ve been crafting in one way or another for about 40 years, but I have been card making for about 5 years.

I have always been involved in creative endeavours, since I was young…cant imagine living without doing something creative every day!
I’ve been crafting for 10 years now, before that I was into cross stitching.

I’ve always loved crafting. I’m not very good, but I enjoy it!
I’ve been crafting since I was a kid in the 60s! Always trying to make things. Began rubber stamping over 25 years ago, but didn’t get serious into papercrafting until a few years ago.

I have been scrapbooking since 1995. Thank goodness my style has evolved.
I’ve been scraping for about 8 years but I had homemade scrapbooks of fashion pictures when I was at high school.
I have been scrap booking off and on for many years, and I would say that crafting is a part of me in so many ways. Over the years I have explored many creative avenues, including wood painting, making my own clothing, crocheting, and more recently card making. Crafting in all its forms is a way for me to manage stress and bless others. I enjoy it so much, and I enjoy your magazine too! (I always like finding new ideas!)
I have been scrapbooking about 10 years now. I would love to give a subscription to my niece and my friend.

Hi. I have been crafting for as long as I can remember, at least 50 years. I have been card making for about 10 years and would love a subscription to your magazine to share with my friend Taylor.
I have been crafting all my life. Bought a crafting book from the book club in grade 3 and still have it. I made my first purse when I was 9 yrs. old. Started quilting in my teens and began scrapbooking in the late ’90’s which evolved into card making and I’m still at it!
Thanks for the chance to win.
I have been crafting for about 20 years. I started Scrapbooking 17 years ago and card making shortly after that.
I think I have been crafting since 2003. I still love it.
I was lucky enough to get a paper copy of your mag in my Scrapbook.com order. Nothing beats a paper magazine but I appreciate that you have an online version for people like me who are all the way in NZ. 🙂
I’ve been scrapbooking since 2009 but I’ve taken many breaks in between. I’ve been a serious scrapbook er since last April.
Gosh…that’s a tough one. My Mom enrolled me in 4H and I learned how to sew. I sewed every craft in sight and even made my own clothes and got to model them too. My Mom and I always did paper crafts too as far back as I can remember; but, I just don’t remember how old I was.
Thanks for sharing with us!
I have been crafting for at least 15 years now but it was my good friend Mary Tellez who introduced me to scrapbooking. Would love to share a subscription with her!
I grew up with a very crafty lady! My mom was always (and still doing) every craft imaginable. I stopped doing in the teen years and early 20’s and it wasn’t until my sister’s wedding in 2002 that I really got into scrapbooking after making her a scrapbook-card to give her the morning of her wedding and then started and finished a scrapbook of her showers and wedding and now love the time spent with my daughter in our craft room!
I have been crafting ever since I was little, so I have to say over 20 years.
My first scrapbook ( I still have) was created during my high school years in the 80’s!! I now have over 30 large books and several minis. In my 20’s I discovered stamping through my mother who is the craftiest person I have ever known. She sewed my clothes as a child, taught me macrame, quilling, and so many more crafts!! Thank you for the opportunity to win a subscription for my mom and myself!
I think I would say I have been crafting since age 10. We used to do craft projects in school and I used to make cards for cousins who got married. I came to the USA and saw so many new things like rubber stamps. Sou you could say for 30 years I have been crafting.
I’ve been crafting seriously for 16 years.
I have always been a crafter doing alot of different things that appealed to me. I have only been scarpbooking for about a year now and have been into card making for about 2 years and I just love it. How so wonderful it is to make a card and send it off to someone just to wish them a good day or a word of encouragement.
Dare I say FOREVER?
I have crafted for as long as I can remember. My mother and grandmother always taught me their skills and encouraged me when I wanted to try something new. Luckily my husband has been just as supportive. My committed cardmaking begain almost 10 years ago … so I’m celebrating my 10 with you this year!!!
NOW I get to share my love of creativity with my nieces and nephews.

Congratulations on your 10th year anniversary. Love that you have kept the hard copy SCT magazine. It’s nice to have the hard copy to flip through anytime. I’ve been crafting since a teenager. I remember cutting out movie stars from magazines, mounting them on construction paper and plastering them all over my bedroom walls!. Of course if I win the SCT subscription, I’d share with my scrapping buddy, daughter Lainey!
Hmmmm I think I was three when my grandmother came to visit and we cut all my BD, Christmas and Valentines cards up and used flour glue to adhere them to a Giant wooden crate I had as a toy box! We also covered Tins with Wallpaper. My other Grandmother taught me to embroider, knit, crochet sew ++++ from the time I was able to hold a needle.
Sometime around 1999 I made my first scrapbook!
I have scrapbooks from when I was in high school, almost 30 years ago!
I have been paper crafting for 12 years but I have been a crafter of some kind all my life. I remember making refrigerator magnets with my Grandmother when I was 5! I won’t tell you how long ago that was!
I have been crafting for a very long time…maybe 40+ years?
I have crafting for as long as I can remember. I always seem to have had a crayon or pencil in my hand. Then I learned ceramics, my mother was a teacher in that field. But for the past 17 years, it has been the paper rafts that have stolen my heart!
I’ve been crafting almost my entire life, but even more now.
I’ve been crafting since I was a child in various forms. My mom has always been super crafty, mostly enjoying sewing. I started scrapbooking and card making more frequently a couple of years ago. I enjoy playing with paper as a way to relax. And it’s always fun to make someone happy with a handmade card.
I have been scrapbooking for 15 years and crafting since in my teens so about 35 years! Winning this subscription would be a lot of help, you know the mind tends to get worn out the older you get:)
I’ve been crafting since 2008 and I would love to give the “friend” subscription to my Aunt Cheryl. Cheryl has just rediscovered scrapbooking and cardmaking after many, many years away from crafting.
I have been crafting since I was a kid, so I guess around 40+ years. I started scrapbooking in 1999!
Since I was a child. My mom saved the first card that I made when I was around 5. It was a fathers day card for my dad. I am now 48 and have it framed hanging in my craft room.
I’ve been crafting since I was a girl – so around 50 years now! Thanks go to my mom and my Nonna. Happy 10 to you!
I’ve always loved to be crafty! Did lots of crafty kid things, but started sewing at age 11, & did my first crewel embroidery picture at age 12….then I just couldn’t be stopped! I love lots of needlework – especially cross-stitch. Paper crafts – card making & scrapbooking – have only been in my life for about the last 10 years. I’m glad I started, as I have made some great new friends because of it!!!
I’ve been crafting since I can remember! I really got started in high school in 1989 when I worked for a little gift shop that carried Hero Arts stamps! I had a few scrapbooks in college, but I really got started with “modern” scrapbooking in 1999 after I got engaged. I haven’t looked back since! Thanks for the chance to win! I adore this magazine!

My sister Elaine got me into scrapbooking about eight or nine years ago. I have been crafty though for as long as I can remember. I like to knit and each year my sisters and I would make ornaments for our Christmas tree.
I have been scrapbooking since the late 90’s. Love it!

I would love to share your beautiful magazine with a friend!!! I’ve been crafting a frightfully long time…but paper crafting specifically for around 16 years!
I started scrapbooking in 2007, right after I got married. It happened by total accident. I fell in love instantly with it and haven’t stopped since!!
I started 15 years ago when my Dad turned 70. I put a scrapbook together for his birthday and was hooked.

THANKS for Sharing and for the Chance to WIN!! Have a FABULOUS WEEK!!

I’ve been a crafter my whole life, dabbling in a variety of crafts but scrapbooking has been my favorite for the last 15 years.
CONGRATS SC&T!!!
I have been scrapping for just about 20 years.
And it just keeps getting better and better!
I started scrapbooking my photos 18 years ago…I didn’t even own a camera at the time. Things have changed significantly since then!
I have been crafting my whole life – -my mom is a crafter, my grandma and great grandma were also crafters. If fact, I have a lovely embossed copper plaque made by my great grandma displayed in my craft room!
I would love to win inspiration all year long. I would share a subscription with my friend Jen who buys old card making magazines at garage sales. I think she would love getting them first hand.
I have been scrapbooking since my oldest was born … so 14 years now. With 4 kids I’m so far behind that I could really use some inspiration!
I have been crafting since I can remember. My mother started teaching me to use her sewing machine when I was 4! I started scrapbooking in 1998, but I was sewing and drawing well before that.
Well, technically I have been crafting for 50 years. I started as a teenager with embroidery, beading and knitting, then tried a little quilting, then crochet, eventually I got into card making. I have also been painting and drawing since I was a child and became a colored pencil artist as well.
I started back in 2004. Haven’t stopped! Been following all the CHA on IG. Proud of our Canadian booths/business people and products.
I so love having these issues in print and I would love to win! I’ve been scrapbooking 7 years, but crafting in various forms my whole life!
I’ve been crafting in some form my entire life, starting with sewing, then cross-stitching, then scrapbooking, and lots of random types of projects in between. Three years ago I embarked upon card making, thinking it wasn’t all that different than scrapbooking. (Ha! The supplies I had to buy!) Anyway, I love whatever I get to do with my hands and seeing things take shape the way I’ve designed them in my head. Thanks for the chance to win your awesome magazine!
Oh gosh, general crafting on some project or another from knitting, cross stitch to scrapbooking and cardmaking for probably over 40 years.
Hi I have been crafting since I was a little girl. I remember the cards with the holes punched in them so that you could stitch through using shoelaces, getting messy with fingerpaints and progressing to cross stitch sewing and knitting. I have been making cards for about 4 years and scrapbooking for the last two. I love it!
I have been crafting for around fourteen years. I started scrapbooking and now I am making cards. Love it all.
I’ve been crafting for over 10 years and I absolutely love your magazine! I enjoy getting paper I can hold in my hand that is not just digital. Thanks for the chance to win!
I’ve been scrapbooking since 1999. Before that I did some cross-stitch, sewing and painting ceramics. Most of that has gone by the wayside for paper crafts!!!
I feel that I am in the infant stages of crafting with only ten years of scrapbooking under my belt. I am constantly watching videos and trying to learn new techniques all the time, all the while trying to find my own personal style or niche. I am glad for your your help with that endeavor! Thanks!
I have been crafting since I was a young girl, so probably 32 years or so! I have been paper crafting for about 12 years. Thanks for the chance to win a subscription for myself & my bestie!
I have been scrapbooking since the birth of my first grandson 12 years ago. I got my sister inlaw and my daughter to join me on this wonderful memory keeping journey.
I have been crafting for about 50 years, the earliest project I did was decoupage when I was about 10 or 11.
I’ve been crafting for 40+ years!!
I’ve been scrapping since the early 70s; before it was scrapbooking! I would love to win an entire years worth of SCT inspiration; I am one of those people that still prefer to hold a book in-hand.
Would love to win!!
I’ve been scrapbooking for about 11 years now – thank for the chance to win this fabulous magazine
I started out as a calligrapher 25 years ago. The guild I joined got me into all kinds of crafts. So, I’ve been at it ever since–25 years and still going strong.
Well, everyone starts when they’re a kid, so 55 plus years. I’ve always dabbled in this and that. But, I started working on cards specifically when I took a class in rubber stamping the fall that my son (my only child) started college (seven years ago). I needed a distraction to fill the big void in my life. Boy did that work like a charm. I love it. Poor kid, though–his room turned into my studio. A bit of a tight squeeze when he comes home to visit. Maybe my stash is a little too big??!!??
I have been crafting in some way my whole life, but have called myself a scrapbooker since 2002 😉
I’ve been crafty all my life (I’m 55 now), but I started cardmaking and scrapbooking in 2010. Thanks for the chance!
Like the other responders, I have been crafting my entire life. My mother taught me to sew, and my craftiness just took off from there!
My favorite magazine subscription! Would love to extend it!
I’ve been crafting my whole life, I couldn’t stop even if I tried.
I have been scrapbooking for 18 years!!!
I love papercrafting and my mother-in-law and I often share ideas with each other. The craft is so therapeutic, and helps you get through life.
I’ve been crafting since II was a little girl, but got serious about it in Jr High school about 35 years ago. I learned to sew, I took woodshop, ceramics, pottery and papercraft classes. Today I sew and papercraft, with a few others thrown in as I can.
I’ve been crafting since 1999 just before I got married, card making first then scrapbooking.
I’ve been a scrapbooker ever since my son was born 21 years ago !! Then card making soon followed ! Love your magazine
I have been crafting since I could hold a crayon. My great grandmother was very crafty and she taught me how to crochet and always gave me something handmade and a craft kit for Christmas.
I’ve been crafty all my life thanks to my mom, my grandma, and my sisters. I’d love to win and share this magazine with them! Happy New Year!
I’ve been crafting since a I was a little girl, but boy have things come a long way since then. I’m relatively new to paper crafting so I’m a little short on creativity, but a one year subscription to Scrapbook & Cards Today would certainly change that. I know it can be downloaded but I like the feel of the real thing in hand. Would love to share with my pal Sandy. Thanks!
Happy birthday, SCT! I started scrapbooking almost 14 years ago, when I was still in high school. Hard to believe it’s been that long! Time flies when you’re having fun 🙂
I have been Scrapbooking and making cards for at least 15 years. I would share this with my friend Sue M.
I grew up in a relatively poor family so we had to make things and be crafty. Girl Scouts cemented being crafty after I got a little older. Now I am retired and have a lot of time on my hands so I craft as much and as often as I like. (I did my time on the work battlefields). What I need is inspiration, I would adore getting a subscription to your magazine for myself and my crafting buddy who lives about 500 miles away….we need more ideas!
I have been crafting since I was around 10 years old. My grandmother taught me how to knit and crochet…then I did ceramics and cross stitch, I have done some quilting as well. My love for scrapbooking and card making started about 12 years ago and I have never looked back! I would love to add a year on to my subscription and would love to share with a friend!
I’ve been crafting many, many, many decades, since I was a child.
I started before it was even a thing…lol…I used to put a foil like tape in various colors on all my photo corners and stickers to match…boy wasn’t i pleased when scrapbook ing came into existence! I love seeing how it has evolved over time and can’t wait to see what’s next! I think I wa 10 or 11…I’m 34 now ?
Gosh, I’ve been crafting since I was a little girl. But I’ve been heavy duty crafting for about 10 years. I can’t get enough!
I was lucky that my mom was a crafter, so I guess I’ve been crafting my whole life!
For a long time!! I haven’t stopped creating scrapbook pages since 1999. Thank you for always inspiring!
Happy Birthday to you. Happy Birthday to you. Happy Birthday dear SCT, Happy Birthday to you. I have been scrapping since 1997 and make occasional cards. Would love a free year subscription.
Been scrapbooking since my first scrapbooking party back in the early 90s.
It would be great to win a sub to your great magazine. I have been crafting for at least 50 years!!!
Your magazine is the best. Would love to win a subscription. I read my magazines over and over again. Thanks for the opportunity.
Happy 10th Birthday!!! All of last year I’ve just been buying more scrapbooking stuff, but my mojo has been MIA for a while now. Sure could use some great new inspiration to get the mojo flowing again, and would LOVE to share with my bestie! I used to get S&C Magazine through my scrapbook store, but have only been able to get it online for the last few years. Nothing beats having the actual magazine in your hands though!! Here’s to at least 10 more years! Cheers!
I’ve been crafting since I moved back to the states in 1990. Materials were hard to find where I lived and when I moved to the states it made me the happiest person on earth:). I started with plastic canvas, and now I work with mixed media, cards and scrapbooking.
I have been crafting most of my life! I started as a child. I made my own cards as a little girl. I drew and painted them. I made scrapbooks, too. Add I continued doing the same throughout my life. I am working on a couple of albums now and I am making journals for my Bible study friends. I just finished a mini album of my little granddaughter’s visit this summer. She is going to be so surprised when she receives it! I need to make a card to go in the box! Hmm…let me see… what kind of card and what will it say? 🙂 <3
My goodness, my mom taught me so many crafts from knitting to crocheting and sewing. Then she taught me Japanese punch embroidery. I can’t do these crafts very much due to arthritis in my hands. I started making cards about 15 years ago and fell in love. All the pretty papers and awesome techniques, I was and still am hooked. I know I’m addicted but don’t lock me up, I am having way too much fun and still have so much to learn. That’s why I would like to win a subscription because there are always so many new products and techniques featured. Thanks for the opportunity to win. I would share with my crafty friend Heather.
As a scrapbooker, I’ve been crafting for 18 years. But I’ve been doing other arty things all my life.
It’s in my blood, have always loved crafting in many forms – from a child cross stitching, huck toweling (Swedish embroidery), sewing, but my love of card making is the one that has stuck with me and one that dominates my spare time. If only I had the time to keep up with my creative thoughts!!
I would love to win a subscription to SCT, I still prefer the touch and feel of looking at a book in my hand, turning the pages and soaking up the creativity.
Happy Birthday and thank you for the chance.
All my life. Was scrapbooking before it was a thing! Love SCT.
Congrats on 10 years! I’ve been crafting since I was in elementary school or before. I was always making something. 😉
I’ve been crafting as long as I can remember… my mother was an artist, and she encouraged creativity in me and my sisters
Happy 10th Birthday year. I have been crafting for 25 years and loving it. Have fun at the show.
Let’s see…I made my first album when Scott Baio was a young Italian hunk! P.S. he still is lol! So needless to say I’ve been at it for a few years ;)Deb
I started crafting after I had a vehicle accident in 2003. Wasn’t able to play any of the sports I loved and this is what my sister started me on. Scrapbooking and cardmaking. Lifesavers.
I’ve been a paper lover since I could use scissors! But I fell in love with scrapbooking in about 1998…wow! Am I that old? I would love to share this subscription with so many people, but I would have to choose my scrapbooking buddy and cropping companion, Alison, who also happens to be my cousin. ❤️?❤️
I have been crafting for sometime..but found card making six years ago and it has become the king of the hill in my craft domain..love the magazine..thanks for the chance at a great prize..
I’ve been crafting almost 40 years!

I was started on the crafty path with a cross-stitch kit given to me when I was 8, and I haven’t looked back! Quilting, rug hooking, scrapbooking, car making, watercolour, mixed media, encaustic, wood burning…it’s been a glorious way to nurture my creative spirit!
Shine on!
Kelley
Happy 10 years! I’ve been paper crafting for over 14 years now and would love to get your magazine delivered to my home to inspire me more and it would make my friend Kelly S. Very happy too!
I think I have been crafting all my life…which is tooo many years to count. I need to be creative, so I have tried lots of types of crafts over the years.
I have been crafting for about 15 years. A friend got me into scrapbooking when she was pregnant with her first child and it grew from there.
I have been crafting since 2011, when I discovered all the companies and blogs.
I enjoy reading SCT. Thanks for the opportunity to win.
I would love to have a copy of this magazine in my hands…dream! An entire subscription? Heaven!
Ive been scrapbooking for the past 14 years and the first 4 scrapbooks I completed were all gifts. I’m now scrapingfor myself. However, I’ve always loved crafting and even as a small child I was painting, making things, looming etc.
I’ve been crafting in one form or another for 44 years.
I’ve been crafting since my kids were born, 14 years! How can it be that long already? Time flies!
I was introduced to scrapbooking by my friends Chantale Sevigny and Monica Nolet during the summer 2009. It has been revealing to me!
Counted cross stitch kept me busy for many years then daughter told me I should try scrapbooking and that’s kept me busy for many years now. My “on the road” craft these days is Swedish Weaving I learned from some friends.
I have been crafting my entire life, so over 40 years. Scrapbooking is my absolute favorite. It is so creative, easy, and saves my families memories which is very important to me.
I’ve been crafting almost all my life : sewing, lacing, candle making, chocolates, ceramics, weaving, & for the past 16 years, scrap booking, cards & altered images. And for All of the past 10 years I’ve been a loyal SCT follower – & proud of it!! The mag has had me in it’s allure from the very first issue & I love it as much today as then!! Congrats on making SCT such a huge success – You are loved ?. I’d share this subscription win with my daughter, Francine. Thanks, as always, for the chance to win. ?
Oh boy? How long? I think for about 13 years now and have never looked back! You all at SCT have inspired my creative juices so a nod to you! Thanks for everything you do!!!
I have been crafting for 20+ years. And I love evert minute of it
I have been crafting for years, but scrapbooking and cardmaking since early 2001. I enjoy it very much and look forward to new products coming out.
It seems like I’ve been crafting forever, but I really got into Scrapbooking when my son was born. So 19 years of really documenting and preserving memories. I’ve loved every minute, but it never hurts to get regular doses of inspiration. Thanks for the chance to win!
Wouldn’t that be an awesome gift. I love scrapbooking and am always looking for new ideas.
Love all the great ideas in your magazine so it would be great to win a free subscription! Thank you
Always! Well, since I was big enough to hold a tube of glue! 🙂
I’ve been crafting over 50 years, but started photo scrapbooking about 20 years ago after my partner died. My favorite crafting is making cards, but I love to share my ideas with kids at school too. My friend Keitha would be happy to receive a little something too.
I have enjoyed crafting for as long as I can remember – I loved art class in High School and enjoyed cross stitch and DIY projects. I have been paper crafting for the past 5-6 years. Thanks for the chance to win!
Happy 10th Birthday!! I have been scrapbooking for almost 10 years and may I say that you guys are awesome. I get a lot of my inspiration through your magazines and blogs.
Have been knitting as long as I remember and collecting news clippings to keep (my Mom was a great crafting lady and my Dad as well as his Mom have kept news articles from the early days) I started scrapping when CM came out but didn’t like the idea of cutting up my pics so didn’t pursue it until about 10 years ago while visiting my sister in law who was an avid scrapper–loved her technique and it went from there –though now I think I am more a collector of scrapping materials.Love the magazine.
my grandma was always bringing me fun little crafty kits she had put together for me, then I started scrapping in junior high, then met Creative Memories in 1999 & my world was forever changed. 🙂
I started crafting when I was little …with my Mum…and have never really stopped…I paint, scrapbook…I used to cake decorate and work leather…and I did stained glass too…I love to craft and I am 48 sooo a very long time…:)
Happy 10th birthday!! I’ve only been crafting for about 10 years, but it has become one of my all time favorite hobbies! I love all the possibilities for creating something beautiful and hand made.
I’ve been crafting for 20+ years, but scrapbooking as I do it now it’s been about 10 years, and every year i learn more and have more fun! I figure as long as i’m still enjoying it i’ll keep scrapbooking! My friend Lisa and I would love to win a subscription 🙂
I’ve been scrapbooking for over 35 years. I have always loved my pictures of family and friends.
I having be paper crafting since approx. 1960 when we were cutting out paper snowflakes and making paper chains for the Christmas tree. I guess I starting scrapbooking/card making somewhere in the 1990s. I have enjoyed your magazine for many years and having a subscription again would be lovely.
I started scrapbooking 20 years ago!! I still enjoy it to this day.
Love, love LOVE Scrapbook & Cards Magazine. Began playing with “crafts” many many years ago and now years later (almost 80) still have a love of creating!
Been crafting most of my life (over 50 years now), but seriously starting scraping 17 years ago. The discovered card making along the way, so enjoy all paper crafting.
Enhorabuena por su 10º cumpleaños, gracias por hacernos partícipes de él, junto a ustedes.
I’ve kept scrapbooks since my high school days, but started “scrapbooking” in February 2002. My first layout was my son’s 11/2001 1st birthday.
I will have to say that crafting started during my childhood as my mom has always done something crafty and inspiring.
She taught me herself or we would go together to take some classes.
Cardmaking with stamping techniques started in 2000 when my hubby and I were getting married and I was looking for some paper supplies for the invitations. Scrapbook and Cards Today has been a source of inspiration and learning for a couple of years, thanks for providing such a wealth of resources for us. Happy Anniversary and many more. Cheers!
I’ve been crafting most of my life, and scrapbooking since 2001. I love doing all sorts of crafts but scrapbooking is by far my #1 passion and obsession. I LOVE SCT magazine for the ideas and inspiration it provides. I’d love to win a free subscription and share it with my scrapbooking BFF Val! Thanks for the chance.
Happy 10th and thanks for the opportunity to win!
I have been creating since childhood. Seriously for about 15 years.
I’ve been crafting for about 15 years as that is when I made my first scrapbook.
Since I was a little girl – some 70 or so years ago – lol. Thanks for the chance to win a subscription to your great magazine!
Going on 17 years in the scrapbook/cardmaking hobby.
Love Love Love your publication. Gets my creative mind working overtime.
thx
I have always been a crafter and that is “thank you” to my mother who is in her 85 year and still an avid crafter. She is a supreme scrapbooker and a creative card maker and we so much enjoy spending time crafting together along with my daughter. It is a family affair!!
I’ve been crafting for 55 years! I started when I was about 3 and asked my mom for a needle and thread. Happy 10th Birthday. I would love to win a subscription. Thank you so much!
Since I was a teen I’ve been crafty, but I started scrapbooking in about 1999.
Happy Birthday and Congratulations!!!!
I have been crafting for close to 15 years….took some time off, but have been working more diligently at it the past year or so. Still need more time though!!!! Thanks for the chance!
LOVE this blog too! I have been through previous posts through 2015 and there is SO much that inspires – thank you for this blog! 🙂
My Mom was a crafter so I suppose I have crafted forever. I am 72 years old LOL I started stamping in the 1990’s and switched to scrapping about 5 or 6 years later. I liked the ‘socialness’ of scrapbooking. I would love to win a subscription to SCT as I live on an island and our scrapbooking store closed.
I love your magazine.
I asked my mom when I started crafting, and she said the fist thing she can remember is when I was three and my Nanny made me up some flour paste (can you believe that) and we made a mother’s day card for her. She still has it, but sadly the parts have fallen off (could it have something to do with the paste?)So that would make me crafting 51 years. And believe me my Nanny started a “bad” trend that my husband will agree with.
I have been crafting since I was 19 years….so that is 20+ years! Started with stamping and graduated to scrapbooking when I had children. Thank you!
I’ve been scrapping for about 15 years but growing up always crafting in some way. My sister in law introduced me to it….she’s always inspiring me! Happy birthday SCT!
I have been crafting for years, but introduced to scrapbooking in 1998 — I have been hooked since!! I love being the memory keeper in my family 🙂
I’ve always been crafty (holiday crafts), but didn’t dive into scrapbooking until a co-worker invited me over to her house and told me to just bring photos, that was in 2000 or 2001? so 15 or 16 years!!! I love her for it! I’ve been trying to get back and scrapbooking after my creative mojo went into hiding after my youngest was born, this would help me get there!
I’ve been crafting for 34 years! Wow, the time has passed by so quickly. I love, love love SCT magazine and would love to extend my subscription. Thanks for the chance.
Sct membership wow what a great giveaway
I’ve been scrapbooking since 1996. My daughter was getting married and I wanted to make sure I captured every moment of all the fun celebrations. I love your magazine and would love to have a paper copy so I can fold over the corners on all my favorite projects! Thanks for the chance!
I have been crafting since I was a little girl. But when I finished college, I took up cross stitching. Then in my late 20’s I moved into miniature quilting and then about 15 years ago I discovered scrapbooking … which is sort of like miniature quilting but you can actually have a finished product in a shorter period of time! Thanks SCT
My friend and I have been scrapbooking/card making since 1995 after being introduced through Creative Memories. We no longer live near each other and I miss those weekly scrapping sessions at my house. I’d love to be able to share a subscription with her!
For about 8 years now 🙂
I guess it has been about 15 years now that I have been crafting…wow ..sounds super long after saying it outloud…lol!!
I have been crafting all my life. My mom is super crafty and now I do crafts with my own little girls. I started scrap booking about 20 years ago and haven’t stopped! Love the cover.
I’ve been crafting for about 10 years now. Thanks so much for all you do to keep me inspired.
I have been scrapbooking for 10 years (only dedicated the last 4) and crafting for about 15 years
I can’t really remember when I wasn’t paper crafting but if I had to put a timeframe on it, I’d have to say at least 15 years. A lot has changed but I find myself going back to basics more often than not. Hmmm… Does that make me an old dog that can’t learn new tricks???
Since 2000 when I became a SAHM, but I really got serious about scrapbooking in 2009 when I found the internet community, including S&CT, to learn more and keep me motivated.
Hi, congrats on 10 years. I have always been crafty. My grandmother was always knitting and sewing. I know I started crafting seriously 30 years ago so lets go with that. Hugz
I’ve been crafting since my youngest was born so about 17 years.
I have been crafting for a very long time, since I was in high school, I got into scrapbooking in 1997 and have been doing it ever since! I started making cards about 4 years ago and love doing scrapbooking and card making! I would love to win a subscription for me and my crafting friend Lisa Gayle!! Thanks for the chance to win!!
I’ve been crafting my whole life! Scrapbooking as we know it now since about 1999. Love your magazine and look forward to the yearly calendar too.
I’ve been scrapping for 13 yrs and love it! Been making cars for at least 10 yrs!
I have always been a crafter in one form or another: sewing, crocheting, cross stitching…
Scrapbooking came into my life about 15 years ago and am still as excited about it and have no plans to stop LOL
Thanks for the opportunity to win a fab prize 🙂
Crafting,well I started making jewelry around 11 years ago,it’s fantastic.Then,my friend Loida, talked about scrapbooking and I got hooked on it since two years ago.Recently,cardmaking only more or less a year and I love it!
I can’t remember wh
