Did you enter the Scrapbooking Survey on Scraps of Mind a couple of weeks ago?
Well the results are in and have been counted and analysed by our highly trained team of researchers to ensure the highest standards of integrity and accuracy.
And the answer to the question “Paper, Digital or Hybrid, what kind of Scrapbooker are you?” is a strong leaning towards the digital camp.

Mind you although Digital came in with 42% over Paper’s 12% I found it interesting to note that almost half the survey respondents do both paper and digital or hybrid.
I find this very encouraging. I think that both genres of scrapbooking can work well with each other and my albums include a mixture of all three types of scrapbooking.
And I wonder if we would have seen the same results if I had posted the survey eighteen months ago. Digital scrapbooking and hybrid scrapbooking seem to have a much higher profile today than they did only a few months ago.
There seems to be a strong trend towards digital scrapbooking but with paper scrapbookers not wanting to totally give up their tactile fix, hybrid scrapbooking is rapidly growing in popularity.
So where do you sit on the Pie?
Are you digital, paper or something in between?

I sit totally in the digital camp although i have to say that there are some hybrid things that have caught my eye like the cup inserts and photocubes. I think my head is too full–not to mention my workspace–of THINGS to do the paper scrapping! I would go out and buy a bunch of stuff (and it costs plenty, mind you) and then just sit and look at it, not knowing where to start. My hard drive WAS (i say was, cause it just died and this IT professional did not quite make it to back up her treasures) packed and not always easy to maneuver around, sort of like my craft workspace, but at least if i dropped something, i didn’t PHYSICALLY trip over it–or worse yet, step on it and ruin it–later.
I didn’t even KNOW about digital scrapbooking until a year ago. Now, I’m going to teach a class in January 09. First lesson: backup, backup, backup. LOL.
Yes I guess there’s a lot of swings and roundabouts between digital and paper scrapbooking Denise. I also have a huge amount of paper scrapbooking stuff which I have never used but can’t bear to get rid of…just in case. I can’t go into a scrapbooking shop without falling in love with more stuff and buying it. And it all mounts up.
On the digital side though, protecting your stash with back-ups is something we all know about…and are usually too slack to do regularly.
