On Your Mark, Get Set, Scrap!

On Your Mark, Get Set, Scrap!

This the last segment in our discussion on making it easier to get more scrapbooking done!

Step 9:  Don’t let supplies get in your way! 

It doesn’t really take a lot of supplies, even though you can easily get carried away and overspend.  On the other hand, if you’ve collected a lot of supplies, don’t let the volume of what you have on hand confuse your choices. Grab a few embellishments and be done.   Just do it!

A simple list of items to start with or keep handy in your grab-‘n-scrap kit:

  • Paper
  • Scissors
  • Adhesive
  • Photo safe fine-tip marker
  • Photo trimmer

As you move forward, you may decide the things you enjoy most to add as embellishments.  Maybe you love ribbons, brads, buttons, flowers, etc.  You’ll better have an idea of the things that go in your grab-‘n-scrap kit!  Remember, it’s YOUR kit, and YOU get to decide what YOU like!

If you are a digital scrapper, perhaps selecting your pictures and sticking with a single digital kit may be the easiest way to go.  That way you aren’t overwhelmed by the sheer volume of digital elements.

Happy Scrapping!
