Scrapbooking is a hobby that has spread world-wide - there is even a thriving German community of scrapbookers. And, Germany now has its own scrapbooking magazine, Scrap-Art-Zine. The first issue was published in March 2007 and was a huge success. Right now they are working on the second issue, which will hit news-stands in June 2007. It is available for preorder right now from their site. The magazine is published quarterly and they take orders to ship everywhere. Although it is in the German language, they do take international submissions. There is also a regular feature on an international guest scrapper in each issue, this time it is Mou Saha from the U.S. An interview plus pieces of her work are highlighted.
Andrea and Jana have kindly offered to give a complimentary copy of their upcoming summer issue to a lucky ScrapScene reader. Please note, it won’t be mailed to the winner until they begin shipping this new issue in mid-June. Please comment in this post if you would like to be entered in the drawing and we will draw a name on Saturday, May 12th at 7pm EST to win the free copy! Please be sure to include an email address or another way of getting in touch with you in your comment, in case you are the winner.

Hey Scrapscene! I love this blog - new stuff all the time!
I would love to see what people from other countries are doing with this awesome hobby. My husband was stationed in Germany in the military so he may be able to help with the articles.
Thanks!

Zer gutt!!! Would love a copy. Besides reading the U.S. scrapbooking mags, I also read the Aussie and UK ones that I can get my hands on. Might as well add a German mag to the list!!! (A bit obsessive wouldn’t you say?????) ha ha KK kikijj@bellsouth.net
