Not-so-guilty pleasure

Oh, scrap magazines, how do I love thee? Let me count the ways.....

I subscribe to way too many magazines, some of which I don't know why they continue to come in the mail because I haven't renewed the subscription in what seems like years. My two favorites, that I read cover to cover, are Creating Keepsakes, and Scrapbooks, Etc. I am constantly scrap-lifting ideas from these two magazines for my own scrapbook pages. I usually modify the details to make it my own style, but for the most part I get a ton of ideas from these magazines. I always have a smile on my face when I open my mailbox and see that another issue has arrived.

I'm still cool!! I swear!! I balance out my scrap magazine addiction by subscribing to SPIN and Paste magazines. Unfortunately, I don't read those cover to cover. I usually let them stack up on the coffee table, hoping desperately that they will project the image of indie cred' by the occasional music snob visitor (i.e., Kyle and Casey). I think my so-called indie cred' is unfortunately cancelled out by the stack of unread issues of Better Homes and Gardens on the other side of the living room. Who signed me up for that subscription anyway?
