In the United States, there were roughly 25 million active scrapbookers, supported by over 3,000 scrapbooking stores. Scrapbooking also continues to show a strong presence at creative industry events and conventions, including the AFCI's 2019 Creativation show.

Acid-free cardstock is commonly used as the base for layouts in scrapbooking, since it can hold weight, won't buckle with the use of liquid adhesive, and won't destroy your beloved family photographs and ephemera. It is also often used as a base for cards in cardmaking, tag making, and die cutting.
