I Confess....


For those of you in the "scrapworld" you know good and well what scraplifting means. You also know good and well that it's not necessarily a bad thing. Now is it? It helps a great deal when you just can't come up with the right idea for that perfect page. It's kind of like that little nudge that you need to get those creative juices going again. I have to confess...right here and now that I can not scraplift. Yes I said I CAN NOT SCRAPLIFT. It's not because it is naughty or anything...I've tried when I'm drawing a blank and I just can't do it!! I set out with the best intentions...I really do!! I fold back the page of the magazine and I study it and look at all the products that were used in the layout, get everything all lined up and then right when I think I'm going to do it...I can't! I cut the first strip of paper and then I completely lose it....going off in a completely different direction than the layout I spent so much time studying. What's wrong with me? I have never liked to read directions for anything...I guess it boils down to I just want to do it my way!!! And for those of you in the "scrapworld" you know that's not necessarily a bad thing either!!

Right now, scraplifting is about all I'm doing. I'm so far behind. But not all the details of the page, just the basic layout of the page. Then I add my own embellishments. Maybe try that. Or just do your own thing :)
