Affordable Scrapbooking Supplies

After getting into scrapbooking myself I have come to a conclusion that this would be the perfect gift for a special occasion, and I am starting now to build up my "stash" for my daughter-in-law's Christmas present.

Shopping around, I found that Dollar General Stores, Family Dollar Stores and Dollar Tree stores have all the supplies you'll need to make a great start, with beautiful packaged background pages for $1 (some have six or more pages). Dollar General has cardstock squares for $2 which make a perfect background for photos and packages of stickers for scrapbooking for $1 and $2 a pack.

Family Dollar and Dollar Trees have packages of craft foam letters and numbers for $1, which are great to personalize pages and add the date, place, or occasion on which the photo was taken. I have worked for several days on my album and I want it to be a special keepsake I can be proud to leave my family. I am writing this because I want future scrapbookers to know there are affordable supplies for $2 and under. Happy scrapbooking!
