What’s your scrapping super power?

[nesser1981]

We all have one, what’s that thing you know you feel like you do a great job at when it comes to scrapping?

I’ve always said, I’m not the strongest scrapper, I tend to be lazy when it comes to learning new techniques, but I think I do a good job at getting my memories organized to scrap. I try not to get too far “behind”.

Organizing my to scrap pile has always been one of the things I’ve always like I make a point of doing.

Brag on yourself, what is your super power! Do you kill it at challenges? I know a bunch of you do! I see the trackers every month. Are you great at shadowing, do you bring new people to the hobby?

I can usually make any style kit work with my boys' pictures or take a themed kit that I know I have no pictures that relate but find a twist to make it work with what I have.

I looove this question so much!

I pride myself on scrapping the very ordinary every day life events that looking back at will be extraordinary... trying to capture the tiny details that I'm for sure to forget - the price of things, how long things took, test scores, etc.

I have a ton of scrapping super powers. lol
But the main one that I think is rare is that I can scrap FAST. Pages usually take me 30 mins or less, and really if I'm pushing it, I can get one done under 15 mins. I've been timed....lol

The other thing I always consider my claim to fame is printing. All of my layouts have been printed from May 2005 through December 2021. Plus other side projects.

This is so fun. I agree Robin, it's fun to see what everyone has to say.

Yes ma'am, no one does it like you! :wub:

I am really good at scrapping myself, including my thoughts and feelings. Of the 16 layouts on the front page of my gallery, only four are events. The rest are either about me or about me processing my feelings, particularly about parenting my children over the last year which has been exceptionally challenging. Scrapping is such good therapy for me!

That's great Kellie, I think this is something we could all probably do more of, especially those of us that are starting to feel like our kids are getting to the point they don't want to let us take photos anymore. LOL!

I feel like I'm pretty versatile with kits, I can use themed kits for off themed pages. I also have worked really hard to get my cluster work and shadows the way that I'm pleased with.
Like Vanessa, I'm not the best at learning new techniques. Last week I discovered something new after using the same program (Corel PSP) for 17 years, so I guess never say never!

I am SO NOT GOOD at this. Kudos to you!
I love Cindy's recent templates and hope to one day use them all.

That is freaking amazing!!
I have so many LOs that need to be printed but I want to print in 12x12 albums from Shutterfly and I can't do that until a year is complete. And since I don't scrap chronologically, who knows when that will be.
I do a pretty good job of creating and printing travel/themed albums though.

I always admire your gorgeous clean pages, Jo! :wub:

I shadow my page until it looks like it's touchable.

 

[AmieN1]

I too feel like I'm a fast scrapper- I NEVER spend more than an hour on a page- usually more like 30 mins max! I also love using lighting & photo filters!

That's awesome. I've printed all of the ones I want to print...lol
I don't scrap chrono, so there's always some photos or moments I go back and find later that I haven't done.

That's awesome. I really should make an all about me album just for my kids reference later.

Yes ma'am you do!

 

[HeatherH]

Original page designs. Sometimes I use templates but I feel my best pages (and the most fun to make) are when I go rogue and just start throwing stuff on the page and moving it around.

Like Vanessa, I'm not the best at learning new techniques. Last week I discovered something new after using the same program (Corel PSP) for 17 years, so I guess never say never!

I've learned a lot of things about PSP in the last 18 months that have made my scrapping a heck of a lot easier. And, now that I know how to use scripts... what a difference! May have to venture into learning how to write them but when there is a terrific script maker to get them from, it is easier to let her do it! I load up when she has store sales

As for my scrapping power, I agree with whoever said they print their pages. I print big orders from Persnickety at least once a year and if it has been a big year for scrapping I might print twice.

I also scrap the mundane stuff. I especially like to document the ups and downs of gas prices.
