We have remained friends for over 18 years and although our lives have changed and we have become so busy, we still see each other now and then. When we do, we either scrapbook or cardmake. Sometimes we even get together just to catch up. She is an amazing person and I feel blessed to have her in my life. ❤️
My crafting buddy is Debbie Reedy. We have been crafting together for over 7 years. We would go to craft camps for weekends twice a year.

My favorite crafty friend is my mother. She hooked me on crafts at a young age, and about 15 years ago we both fell in love with paper crafting. We have different “niches” but the the paper craft industry is so diverse we can work alongside each other and share special times together with our hobby.

After cards, we both explored and loved scrapbooking; our hobbies are posted in our shared blog. She went beyond paper and is now into sewing, while I made 3D paper projects. Crafting is fun with her.
Congratulations to the two lucky winners! And this would be fun for my girlfriend and I to win this!! She works so hard and unfortunately her neighborhood association is charging her over $2000 to replace the concrete sidewalk in front of her house due to the tree on the street messing it up. She bought this house 8 years ago and has had so many expensive things happen. Hoping reading your magazine will get her mind off of all of the expenses and problems! Oh and we have been scrapbooking together for 20 years!!! We met at a crop! And now we are inseparable!
Thank you for the opportunity to win SCT!
My best crafty friend is Eva.
Happy Summer!
I would have to say Cynthia Mascoll …. she is great at organizing scrapbook days where we all come together, each bringing 1 or 2 special tools to use and share, our unique techniques and work on getting layouts (or card making) done. She even helps organize the pot-luck meals so there is a good balance & all food-preferences are accommodated!! 🙂
My best crafty friend is my BFF Kathy. We love going to crops together, although we do tend to laugh and drive each other mad more than we end up crafting – but that’s one of the best parts!
