I got an email today about Scrap N Easel and a light for it -- Looked interesting...
I am a primarily stand up scrapper so I am not sure how much it would be used.
I wonder if you could use it on your lap?? I do alot of traveling and always struggle with holding things on my lap. |

I own it and I love it. But I'm a sit-down scrapper. I don't see an advantage if you stand,because obviously the objective is to give your layout a better angle than flat on the table. It's fairly heavy, so I don't think it would work in your lap. however, because it's magnetic, it is a good too for planning your layouts, because it's easy to align and move around before you glue it all down. I think there is a video on their website. | |

It is kind of heavy, and may be too flimsy to put in your lap. It may work in your lap if you have a flat surface between your lap and the easel. | |

Dancingfish, I've been thinking about buying one of these, too. You mentioned getting an email today -- is there a special deal going on right now by any chance? One reason I haven't pulled the trigger is the cost. It just seems so overpriced for what it is. If there were a special going on, I might just do it... | |

I got the same email today - 25% off which makes it $60.00 OR get a lite & Scrap N Easel for $84.00. This was from ContainYaCrafts.com - no clue how I got on their email list.
Hope this helps

I have the set that is on sale and I LOVE it! Best purchase I made for my scrapping. No longer does my neck kill me when I get home from crops or spend hours at my desk. Plus the light is great for late night crop scrapping  |

I own one... And it works great for making double page layouts like those by Scrapbook Generation. It lines up your pages, strips, etc very well. It is heavy and I think that it really needs a hard surface - don't think that it would be the best option for scrapping on the go. |
