What kind of scrapper are you?

[Route66]

I dabble in a few styles and was wondering what style of scrapping do you do and why?

[MamaBee]

I say I'm everything and the kitchen sink kind of scrapper... LOL! I love clean designs and the artsy - but I always come back to fill up the page. Even my house is not what you would call minimalist... lol. I just like a lot of things around me.

MamaBee, I know what you mean, I am a "collector" myself and it has been very difficult with downsizing. At least in scrapping I don't have to control myself.

Slow...is that a style? I know I'm not clustery... I try to cluster & always end up deleting all my layers, LOL, but I love the way other people pull them off! I'm also not clean & simple...maybe somewhere in between...?

I mostly scrap full pages (lots of photos), but I can do single photos too (just not as often). I also like to scrap Project Life style (the blocking at least) if I want to do a super quick page or if I don't have a real theme to the page, so I know I won't have a bunch of elements or a title/word art.

Erica Zane, I often uncluster myself as I don't always like my layers. Others do such an incredible job but I can't seem to pull it off. I am working on that.

aussiegirl, I love single pages too but always seem to fill the pages. I would love to do more project life style pages, faster and less thinking.

I feel like my style is all over the place, but I would consider myself more of an artsy scrapper. That's what I enjoy the most.

I'm a multiiphoto, Cindy's templates-style scrapper, lol, with a few other SSD designer's templates thrown in. I love a lot of the artsy pages I see but it's not something that comes naturally at all to me.

HeatherH, I struggle with artsy style but I adore those who are able to connect with it.

bienejen, I hear ya, it doesn't come naturally to me either but I love a good artsy page and admire those who can pull it off. I also love lots of photos but struggle with fitting everything in. I tend to use templates a lot for more photos.

[craftytam]

I'm with Erica... I'm SO slow (and over-think everything)! I scrap very clustery. lol I wish I could scrap clean pages, but they never look right to me. It would sure be a lot faster.

Craftytam, Sometimes it is nice to be slow to savor the journey of creating. I viewed your gallery and WOW, nice work!

[3BluEyedBabi]

It depends on my mood. Sometimes I like to fill the page with all the pretty flower clusters and other times I like a clean, simple LO. I think it depends on the pictures and the kit I'm using, too. I'm definitely not good at the artsy pages, though.

Whatever style Cindy has! LOL! I pretty much exclusively use templates, if it's not one of Cindy's, it's a simple pocket page layout for a monthly recap.

3BluEyedBabi, I looked at your gallery and you have so many pretty pages filled with many photos, I love that! Thanks for playing along.

nesser1981, I love that you use a lot of templates, it takes the guess work out of the equation and I am sure you get more projects completed quicker. Thanks for playing along.

Thank you so much!

I try every style that I could. I love being flexible in using templates or making my own composition, but I definitely love clusters on my pages.

[jumbbumble]

I mix project life with a lot of clusters and some big pictures. I like buzzy and full pages but from time to time i do a clean and simple one
