Also if you have a Michaels or Joanns in your area, be aware of the coupons, that is the way to go to get supplies, eventually you´ll develop your own style and be more aware of your needs. My favorite brands of paper (currently) are
K&Co: The paper is a great quality and the patterns are so yummy.
DCWV: I have almost everyline they have, is a really thick paper almost cardstock like and most comes with some sort of flocking, glitter or embossing, is really cute.
Sassafrass Lass: they have really vintagey prints but super cute!
Graphic 45: Same awesome vintage paper
Basic Grey: Tons of people love it, to me is ok but just that.
Cardstock: People loooove bazzill, is really nice quality and has different textures. I use American Crafts and DCWV.
Also start gathering things you dont even know u would use in scrapbooking: buttons, ribbons, lace, panflets, postcards, everything is potencial embellishment.
For tools I loooove Fiskars, all my trimmers are fiskars as are my scissors, punches too, specially the squeeze punches.
Have fun is an awesome hobbie, in no time you´ll be full of supplies and complaining that you can´t possibly use everything this lifetime, lol, don´t worry is normal...we all do!
