In this episode of Hear Me Out and Pass the Scissors, Nicole and Lisa have an honest conversation about the current state of the scrapbooking industry and where we think it’s headed. We’re answering your questions about scrapbook trends, the products we’re tired of seeing, what we want more of in collections. We also dive into how scrapbook manufacturers are adapting, why we think so many changes are happening in the industry, and what that means for memory keepers today. Plus, we’re pulling back the curtain on design teams to let you know what you should know before applying. If you’ve ever wondered whether scrapbooking is evolving or declining, this episode is a real, thoughtful look at the future of the hobby.
