256/365 - Men Can Scrap, Too

Scott Does Scrapbook
Scott works on a scrapbook that showcases our Colorado trip.

This isn't Scott's first foray into scrapbooking - he created a similar album after our Disney trip in 2005, and when we got back from Colorado, he got the Disney album off the shelf and declared he wanted to make another one.

We settled on a 9x9" album from Close to My Heart and the Sarsaparilla collection of paper and stickers - perfect for a rustic, horse-filled photo album. The pictures arrived today and Scott got straight to work. Note the low-tech scrap space. I think he completed 8 pages in less than an hour. I think I need to take his lead, as I haven't scrapped in 6 months or so. This may get me going again - I really need a scrapping kick in the butt.

What scrapping project are you working on now? What's your current favorite technique? Any advice in getting my scrapping mojo back?

  1. Great for Scott. I wish I could get DH involved.

    I, too, need a scrappy kick in the butt. I'm three trips behind plus all our regular events and 'stuff'.

  2. Good for him!! I give him a big WOO-HOO!!

    As for advice
    Sit down and make a list of all the reasons you enjoy scrapbook - remind yourself why you like it or feel that it is important.

    Then just do it! Mark it on your calendar and set aside some time and do a page (a simple one!) The first page will be the hardest but once you get started it is much easier to keep going!!

    I would love to see some of your pages again Shirley!
