Thanks so much! 😊 Yep, it is nice that we all like different things right! I try to try different styles, you never know when you taste might change, or you might find something different you like. Thank you for subscribing.
Good ideas. I am so overwhelmed by all my stuff. Ill be ordering me those bags to use. Yes! Thank you so much for sharing. 😊 just discovered your channel. So glad it appeared. 👍😊😊😊
Thanks for the tips on prepping pages... I love your idea of just matching paper and pictures. The hardest thing I struggle with is how to put my scrapbook page together.... what sketch to use ordo I design one myself... it would be good to have some tried and true scrap designs to have as go tos
These are great tips. I am just finishing a bit of a space reorganization & then I am going to start making these kinds of kits. Many people I know make base pages, then pair those up with photos later, and I just can't. I have to start with the photos.
I keep a notebook with all the pages I plan to do. It has the album I want it to go in, all pictures and paper listed. I take this to all crops to keep it in order then mark off each one in the notebook telling me if its competed or needs something added
Thank you for sharing your process. I started as a scrapbooker and then a card here and there was easier. When I had 4 babies just didn’t have time. Going to try to start back up with it now that the kids are older.
I LOVE the page with flowers that you said you weren't happy with! I think it's beautiful. I've scrapbooking for 25 years and I struggle with keeping up, with collecting vs using, and with the extra photos that I didn't use in a layout. I would love to see a follow up on the pages that you prepped here and how you do traditional vs pocket layouts. HUGS!!
Another tip I’ll add if you struggle with the actual layout design is I do screenshots of layouts that I like & print those with a super cheap print membership like Groovebook & add those to the bag. Sketches would work as well.
OH MY GOSH! I've been "re-organizing" my stuff for years. I didn't watch til the end and I'm up pulling paper. Thanks for the great Idea!!! I do spent way too much time going thru my stuff looking to see what I want to use and then the page doesn't get done.
Hi, Katina! New subbie here! Yay! I’m working on reorganizing my craft area and would really love to know the name of the clear storage box from the Container Store..thanks.
Thanks for subbing! If you head to my website here - katinamartinez.com/2021/12/how-to-prep-scrapbooking-layouts.html Everything is linked that I used. Good luck with the re-organization!
That is what I do. I start with my pictures add paper and then go through each bag and add embellishments. I have 8 grandchildren so some pictures need 8 layouts for each group of pictures. Super easy scraping. And I just keep card stock ,scrap pattern paper and alphas on my desk
This is what I have done for years. It is as close as I get to a 'page kit.' I may throw in a page sketch, but I don't pull stickers, embellishments, etc until I go to work on the page.
I still prefer the traditional layouts. I have a hard time with project life. My photos always are going the wrong way. But I will mix some project life pages into my regular scrapbook if the page sizes match. And then I can add several extra photos. and I love CTMH flip flaps
I really like the layout you don’t like, the one with the flowers. Funny how everyone’s tastes are different. Like your channel, subscribed today.

I love that idea!
What a great plan to catch up on current projects. I need to do the same.
It does help alot to get ready and get prepared and then I you can just dive right in once you have a little bit of time to craft.

You can totally do it! I know it can be hard to find the time! You just have to find little ways to help yourself be successful!

I have done some follow up with adding photos to pages, those video are over on my member group, but in the new year I will do some follow up pages.

Great tip Debbie. I love having a few favorite designs to pull from when I'm struggling, but really in the mood to craft, and create.
I try to do the same kind of sorting and have the pages read to go. But as usual. I am always behind.

The hardest thing is keeping my motivation going to keep at it.

I totally get that!! It can be hard. I love doing both styles. You totally have to find what works best for you. So glad you here.
