There is a place right before you leave DL that has some supplies though.

I might ship my scrapbooking supplies home so they won't get damaged in my suitcase when I cram all my other souvenirs in it. : )

The section is close to the door where you would leave to get a corn dog or go to Baby Care I've also never had a damage problem when buying in the park. I usually shop on my way out or have my things sent to the hotel if staying on property. I also agree that buying through LP is a great idea if you aren't able to shop yourself I've met my quota of "also" today

OK Now I sound CRAZY.... Anyways My souvenirs will way outlast my boys.....

Originally Posted By SuzieQ I've never seen scrapbooking stuff at the outlet before, so I'm afraid you're in for a disappointment there. Also, the selection in the stores isn't huge. There's more available at my local store than at DLR. I have a phenomenal store nearby. But DLR carries some things you can't get anywhere else.

Originally Posted By joeysmommy Thanks SuzieQ I won't be too sad when i don't see scrapbooking supplies at the outlet. I agree, I have a scrapbooking store near me that has lots of unusual Disney things that Michael's and Joann's does not. I will cost it out and possibly just buy them here when I get home. I really only wanted to get a 2006 DL scrapbook. I read on another thread that you cannot add pages to those books. Anyone know?

You never know when that PERFECT scrapbooking 'must have' will show up-and this way there is NO chance that my paper etc will be damaged at all.
Originally Posted By SuzieQ I used to be like that. I've gone more toward digital scrapbooking now.

I bought a wide carriage printer, and with the great quality digital cameras out there I create my own paper backgrounds from my trip pictures. And WOW! it's faster than the traditonal method, LOL. My husband and son like it for our trips because it isn't so froo-froo. My dad is the same way so my mom does most of theirs digital now, too. Now what do we do with that entire bedroom filled with scrapbooking stuff? LOL
Originally Posted By joeysmommy dlkozy I love the idea of the ziploc bag with cardboard so your paper doesn't get bent! I might just bring mythin, plastic paper keeper with some cardboard in it. If I don't find any cute paper I can always put my maps and other scrapbook potential keepsake items in it.

As for what to do with that bedroom full of supplies... Start your very own ebay store.. Sure to pay for all that ink and 12 x 12 photo paper..... My last trip was to WDW and I bought alot of postcards to use in my books... this time I think I'll mail them home from the park... that might fun
Originally Posted By -em >>Now what do we do with that entire bedroom filled with scrapbooking stuff? LOL<< Donate it to those of us who haven't caught the wave of digital yet Then again who am I to talk.. I have more stuff than Ill ever need... Personally I think WDW/DL is getting better at what they offer but still not as good as I'd like. I've found a few of the scrap sets on sale at Cast sales but havent started using them yet- I got the wood WDW scrapbook a few weeks ago and really like it but havent used it yet... ---------- As for adding to the Disney books- Its possible but be advised its not a true 12 x 12 and so finding perfect replacements are hard. -em

Now I buy extras so I can share them around! lol The price isn't really an issue for us as we pay whatever, just to get a hold of the items, they are like gold to us! I did buy a few goodies from that photo store in main street last time, they had some nice things that WOD was not stocking. Also I come home with 5 large Disney 12 x 12 albums, plus a casefull of scrappin stuff last trip and I still should have bought more! It never ends! LOL
