Just curious if anyone on here scraps for others? How is it working for you? How did you get your first customer? How did you come up with your "fees"? Any info would be great. Thanks!

I LOVE you the name of your company.


I am a demo with Stampin' Up! and my team name is The Front Porch Stampers.


I too would love this info. as I want to do more of this.


I would advertise a2-page 12 x 12 scrapbook page since those seems more popular.


Thanks for this great post.

Hi Kim,


LOL, too funny! I went to your website and I'm interested in hearing more about Stampin Up! I am currently signed up as a rep for two scrapbooking companies but am really not thrilled with either one!Can you email me directly please? I LOVE scrapbooking and stamping and would so love to get a business going scrapping for others. I just am not sure which way togo! Look forward to hearing from you!

Okay Lora - will do.


does anyone else to this for others and would like to share their experiences?


thanks!

I don't do scrapping for others. I just am a consultant for Close to My Heart. I've heard that people are starting to this. They will do an entire album with just lay-outs, so the people just come in and put the pictures in. They were charging for the supplies and a little extra for the time. I can't remember the exact figure.

I havent sold any, but Ive bought some off of ebay.

I actually scrap for others, but I am a digital scrapper, so the costs for me are minimal, since I create all the papers/elements I use myself. My layouts are COMPLETELY customized, I don't create "templates", I get my inpiration from the photos themselves. I will do either a single LO for people, or a whole album.


Right now I am just doing this locally, but will eventually be doing a website.


As far as what to charge, I just figured the cost of supplies (for me that is printer ink and paper, and the cost of a scrapbook if they want a whole album) then I factor in what I would like to make for my time. For a single layout I typically charge $30.


If you would like to see my work, you can check out my online gallery for my personal pages, you can see them here http://www.rakscraps.com/photopost/showgallery.php?cat=500&a (http://www.rakscraps.com/photopost/showgallery.php?cat=500&ppuser=108) mp;ppuser=108

Stacie,


I just briefly saw the first page of your website and am already in love with it.


I will post your website to my stampin up yahoo group - okay?


Those pics are really wonderful.

Kim, you are awesome LOL.


That is actually not my own personal site, it is a digital scrapbooking site that I post layouts I have done for myself. But until I am able to my own site, it works for showing examples of my work.


If you could let people know that, and to email me for quotes etc. Also make sure and let people know to say you referred them!!!!

I scrapbook for others, when I have time smileys/smiley1.gif. I charge $5-7 per single sided 12 x 12 page plus the cost of supplies. Since I'm a CM consultant I charge my cost of the supplies to keep their cost down. HTH, Christina
