Scrapbooking Tips

TIP TIP TIP

You ready for this one...

DO NOT BE CREATIVE!

Yes, I can hardly believe those words came from my mouth.

If you know me personally,

you know this is not something I would usually encourage.

Hear me out on this one.  he he he.

There are so many amazing designers around!

Let them create for you!

Sometimes I will create from a skeleton sketch

(such as the ones you see on Triple the Sketch or Page Maps)

and sometimes I will create from a finished page of someone else's.

My paper and embellishments can be completely different.

My placement of those items can be exactly the same.

I get so many pages completed using this tip!

"Stick to it!"

Using sheets of sticker letters really speeds

up my scrapbooking process.

I actually prefer to STAMP my titles because

I can create a much more eye-catching title with stamps.

However, since I have SO MANY photos

I'd like to have in albums and

very little time to get them there,

I need super fast techniques to speed the process.

When I am scrapbooking multiple pages at one time,

I will use the same sticker sheet on many of my pages

(especially if the theme is the same.)

This may seem a bit boring to some scrapbookers

but again, I'm going for speed.

And let's face it, when my family members

are looking at my albums long after I am gone...

the great great grandkids aren't going to notice

that Granny used a certain lettering system over and over.
