Me again! New girl here! *waves*
Just wanted to gush about my first SSD purchase! I have been down and out with a pretty bad case of the flu -- the real flu -- you know, the one that knocks you on your bum and pretty much incapacitates you with body aches for what feels like forever? Pair that with my 17 month old having been the one to share her flu with me and well, we've been a pretty sick house this week. I haven't worked since last Monday.
Anyway, I was finally feeling a tad bit better last night and I took the plunge! I've been hoarding kits in my Wish List since I joined this community and it's literally brimming with tons of enticing goodies. I used this week to get over my "can I really do this" jitters and took the plunge!
I downloaded everything this evening and I'm now the proud owner of the following kits:
Free As a Bird (Petit 4)
Oh So Pretty (Petit 4)
Buggy Love (Lliella Designs)
Sunny Sorbet (Traci Reed)
I fell in love with two of the February Limited Edition kits and then chose two other kits from my Wish List that I want to tackle first. I'm going to practice learning more about PSE and LOs by playing with some tutorials and referencing the example LOs from the store listings. They are quite inspirational and honestly, the reason I chose the kits I did. They are beautiful!
Question:
I did participate a bit in the Click-a-Sig game (SO FUN!) and compiled quite a few folders on my desktop as a result. I've also got my new kits to organize, as well. Mind sharing with me your favorite method of organizing all of this squee-worthy madness?
I'm so excited to start scrapping after I feel energized enough (I'm totally whooped right now) but I do want to organize my files first. I was thinking it might be best to keep my kits together but also create duplicate files and organize them into folders categorized by subject (elements, papers, etc.) so that I can pick and choose at will. Once I have a larger collection of things I can them organize by subject, KWIM? Buuut....this would also double the space each item takes up on my hard drive. Thoughts?
Thanks in advance -- I'm off to finish poking around for ideas before my energy meter tuckers out.
ETA: I just found the very recent Organization thread that someone posted. It's chock full of wonderful ideas -- I'm always up for added thoughts on it but if you don't have the time to reply, that's okay!
