Scrapbook My Life

Although I’m not the type of scrapbooker who aspires to be “caught up”, I do try to make a page or two each week. I find the process of creating a layout to be a great way to relax. In fact, even just sorting through my supplies is rather calming after a long and stressful day. One of the tricks I’ve found that makes it easier to carve out time for scrapbooking is to keep my supplies on a small card table in the corner of my bedroom. Since I have toddler, I obviously can’t leave out sharp metal embellishments or messy paints. But, leaving my cardstock, Cricut, and stickers out makes it easier to work on a page in the 10-15 minute breaks between parenting and my freelance writing business. It may take awhile to get my page “finished” with this method – but overall I tend to get much more scrapbooking done this way than if I’d have to carve out a solid block of time for the task.
