Scrapping Wise?

I'm going to try and get away from so many one photo pages or having 10 pages for one series of pictures.

That's why I stay so far behind and so many pages I try to scrap every picture I take. I've totally got to get away from that.
 
I'm not going to stress so much about making every LO a work of art and just get it scrapped..LOL
 
I`m gonna try to scrap a page a day. But I have the worse habit of using (and by using I mean repeating) photos that I already scrapped. I seriously need to take more pictures (or scan old cool photos) and stop repeating the old ones.
 
I would like to try and do more color-matching pages.. I have this tendency to be drawn to using loads of patterned paper of different colors... I wanna try and stick to two to three colors schematic more. I also wanna do more pages with non-framed photos or unsymmetrical placing of multiple photos.. I think i'm going to scraplift some to 'exercise' with this :)
 
I'm not going to worry about it.

*Bring on single photo pages
*Bring on sucky pages
*Bring on scrapping the same photo 100 times (cause I've done that!!!)
*Bring it all on!!!!
and
*Bring on some new techniques, inspiration, and fun!
 
I'm going to work on more multi-photo pages. I'm also going to try not to stress so much that each page is "perfect," cause they're never going to be...I just want them pretty and to tell a story or preserve a memory.
 
I need to just get it scrapped, too. I want to do multi-page layouts and month in review pages, too. (so the more templates with the more photos - BRING it! I love them)

I also want to try my hand at hybrid. My name is Stephanie and I am a hybrid virgin. :)
 
Mhmm sure Lizzy you rock and if I have to tell you every day until you believe me thats what I will do!!

Theres a lot I would love to try, maybe more graphic style layouts. I also want to be less lazy cause that why I do a lot of single photo layouts LOL I never feel like editing a bunch of photos.
 
I just want to do what I mostly try to do and that is get the story/memories documented, so my kids have them when they are grown and gone, and so their kids can experience their parent's childhood.
 
I'm totally not gonna worry about any of it at all...
My parents were great parents but only pulled out the camera occasionally, the pictures I have of my youth are few and far between...
I'm gonna just scrap...with one picture usually, with very little journaling(unless I feel lead to do more)...with SSD stuff for the most part(duh-I love it here)...with templates if they rock...I'm just gonna keep on scrapping and doing what I love the most. My boys are already much better off than I am...I take pictures of them and scrap their ungrateful butts daily.

I'd like to do this too...not that I don't like journaling, but more often than not I get the page scrapped and then I realize--aw crud, where do I put the journaling??

Aggie was actually the one who got me hooked on digi and her pages are chockfull of amazing journaling, so at least I have great inspiration :thumbup:
 
Actually, I am really happy with how my scrapping has come along this year and really love my style now. I just want to keep doing what I am doing.
 
I'm going to:
1. stop worrying about using a template cause who really cares!
2. try not to scrap 10 pages from one park trip!
3. document their personality, stories, etc. and not just scrap the pretty pics
 
well ... my new thing for the year is going to actually be teaching classes at the Local Scrapbook Store :) Probably not digital classes (yet) but classes with my altered projects. I am also going to be on the Design Team for the store, so I will be expanding my paper collection again LOL.

Yes to all of this.

Also.. more journaling, I need to journal. I suck at journaling. LOL

Also I'm doing Project 365 this year and I'm determined to do it Every. Single. Day. if it kills me.
 
I need to be better about letting photos go unscrapped. If I have 10 good photos from one shoot, I need to make myself stop at 3 instead of trying to get all 10 on a very crowded LO.

I also want to scrap events ASAP after they happen. I don't like doing event LOs, so I put them off and then have to scrap a bunch of them at a time (badly) to finish up each album.
