Jess, Scrapbooking Memories this month is quite good and it has a back copy of My Reflections in it. As well as a couple of sheets of paper. It is around $9.95. I am a beginner also and think these mags are good for beginners this month.

I also borrow these from my library, or if you find you like the mags, people sell them cheap on ebay.

Big W and Kmart also sell page kits for many different things, like school days and travel. Kmart have 50% most scrapbooking items from today.

I'm a scraplifter too!
