Do you struggle with finding time to complete your scrapbook projects? I do, too. Life just seems to be moving faster these days. Here are a few techniques that help me and may help you, too:
Make Use of Small Chunks of Time
I lay out multiple pages at once with paper, photos and embellishments. Then, I stack them up and put them in a box. When I have small bits of time later, I pull out the box, adhere it all to the page and journal. Voila! Pages done in a flash!
Journal Later
I often scrapbook with groups of people, and find it challenging to journal in that setting. So, I complete everything else and do the journaling later while I'm at home watching TV or at one of my kids' activities.
Attend Workshops
I never scrapbook alone...there is just too much else demanding my attention! I have to make a commitment and do it with a group.
Enlist Help
A great idea is to have a family scrapbook night and have everyone help. It's fun to see what other people write about in your family albums!
Go Digital
As I've mentioned before, I'm doing more projects digitally now. I love that I can do it all on my laptop. No more lugging paper, stickers, tools, album pages and more...I just need an extension cord and my laptop.
