Not as often as I would like! I do most of my scrapping here at home but I do occassionally get together with a friend(s) in Indy and sometimes just go to one of the Friday/ Saturday crops at Archivers. I am DETERMINED to hit one of those crops after I get back from my trip.
I go to crops usually around once a month, a couple of them being two days long. I just cleaned out my craft room (again) around New Year's Eve, and have a work surface again, so I can do some work there. I've finished maybe 10 pages at home since then.
I get the most done in the summer, because we have a cottage at the Outer Banks in North Carolina, and I've set up a corner there. I've been making my 2 DSs spend an "academic half hour" nearly every day we're down there (mostly because I feel guilty with them spending so much time on video games, computers and tv)--they just have to read a non-fiction book or practice writing or keyboarding. When I realized that I should scrap during their half-hours, I really picked up my pace. Three summers ago, I completed an album on my whole Air Force career while down there, just before my retirement from the Reserves. The next summer, I did my son's Eagle Scout scrapbook. There's nothing like a deadline!
Great question! It's inspiring to see what everyone's doing.

What a great chance to scrapbook at your summer cottage!
I am a beginner, so I try to do a page or 2 pages a week. Right now I am working on our 2010 Trip. I wish I had a group to get together with once a month or so, but no one I know likes scrapbooking. So I do the best I can with ideas that just pop into my head.

Check out your local crafting stores for crops and such....maybe you can make some new friends who are scrappers too.

Yesterday I got together with fellow PassPorters for a day of scrapping at Archivers. It was a lot of fun, and it was the first time I had done any scrapping since last fall. We try to get together every couple of months to scrap, and normally I would try and scrap at home in between.
So how often do you work on scrapbooking? Do you get together with friends or do you mostly work at home? If you get together with friends, where do you scrap? At home? A scrapbooking store? A scrapbooking retreat?
I scrap daily at home. It's easy because I digiscrap so everything's on my computer -- there's no having to get my stuff out, make a mess, and clean it up. I made a commitment to a designer to do one page a week for her and make one freebie a week that coordinates with her kits. I also do a couple weekly challenges and a couple bi-weekly challenges at Mousescrappers.com. But on top of that, I have challenged myself starting yesterday to do 500 pages by the end of the year. I got 3 pages done yesterday, plus made my freebie.
I don't scrap nearly enough. I usually get the most done at crops.
We (my buddies and I) find that we get more done when we mix up where we go. It seems that we get inspired when we are in a new or different place. Don't know why, just seems to happen.
