Scrapbooking holidays, vacations, courses and getaways; cropping retreats and scrapping weekend workshops in the UK, abroad in Europe, in the USA and Worldwide. We also list accommodation providers (B&Bs, guest houses and hotels) who offer dedicated crafting studios for DIY scrapping getaways. This section includes traditional scrapping, where physical elements are pasted into actual albums and books, as well as digital and computer scrapbooking.
Scrapbooking retreats might be set up to teach the skills needed for the craft – these might include: cutting, colouring, painting, stamping, sticker placement, photo use, use of magazine and newspaper clippings, the use of pre-printed elements or pages, computer courses, even the creation of pop-up pages! Alternatively they might just be an opportunity for a group of scrapbookers and crafters to get together and practice in a social setting.
