Goodbye to Simple Scrapbooks
One of my favorite scrapbooking magazines, Simple Scrapbooks, will cease publication as of the May/June issue. Simple Scrapbooks started in 2002 and met a need for scrapbookers who wanted more simple, clean layouts and fast ideas for scrapbook albums. According to The Simple Blog, the decision to stop publishing the magazine is due to economic conditions and changes in the publication market.
The same people who publish Simple Scrapbooks also publish Creating Keepsakes, another very popular scrapbooking magazine. The company will begin to incoorporate some of the concepts from Simple Scrapbooks into the July 2009 Creating Keepsakes magazine.
If you have a current subscription to Simple Scrapbooks, your remaining issues after the final publication of the May/June issue will be fulfilled with the Creating Keepsakes magazine. Current Creating Keepsakes subscribers will have their subscription lengths extended by the number of issues remaining in their Simple Scrapbooks subscription.
So how do you feel about this? WIll this be more economical for you to have the concepts of both magazines in one publication? Or will you miss a magazine devoted specifically to simple scrapbooking?
