       Do you think scrapbooking is going out of style?  Will you
       always scrapbook?

       I think it is but I hope NOT.  I enjoy scrapping and hope that
       the manufacturers stick around.  I realize all "fads" ebb and
       flow.  I heard that Two Peas may be shutting down (gasp!).

       Being someone who works in the retail part of the industry, I
       don't see it going anywhere. Things are changing though. Classes
       are less popular. Pocket Pages are becoming so very popular. But
       so are mixed media pages. I think it will always be around, in
       one form or another.
       and I will keep doing it in one form or another.

       I've been hearing this for 10 years....  it will just evolve and
       come right back around.  Everything does.
       I have enough stash to last me into my next lifetime anyway!
       lol

       Everything has a cycle. Its a hobby where there is ebb and flow
       and like anything else when times are tight, a hobby is the last
       thing you worry about, and if we all admit it we can probably
       scrap for the next ten years and hardly make a dent in our
       stash. There are people I'm friends with that I have scrapped
       with 8-10 years ago that were total diehards and online every
       night and as far as I can tell no longer scrap. Why? burnout or
       life get in the way and it doesn't seem as important as it used
       to be.

       I agree with you, Lynn.  I think people cut out things like
       scrapbooking when money gets tight.  And it's not a cheap hobby.
       As prices go up (pages were $1 to $2 when I started, now you
       can easily spend $5 or more on a page), people just stop
       creating scrapbooks.  You are right about cycles, too.  It will
       come back stronger eventually.
