I’ve been tagged in a scrapbooking blog tour by Betsy, and it’s been fun to click around a bit and see some of the amazing scrapbookers that I don’t always have the time to check out! Evie started it all, and it’s been fun to join in!
1. What am I working on right now?
Hmm. For scrapbooking? At the moment, I’m planning and brainstorming on catching up with my project life. I’ve been punching cards out of my leftover papers from my jbs mercantile kits bits and pieces and working to make time to work on it. This weekend is starting to look promising finally! And I can’t wait to get my September JBS kits this week to scrapbook some summer fun, too…
2. How long does it take me to create a project?
Typically around an hour or less when I actually start working. I usually think about my creative projects a bit before I start putting things together, though, so does that count?
3. What are my favorite things to create with at the moment?
Mixed media/watercolor/odd sized pages like the one above. In fact, I stumbled upon a spiral mixed media notebook when I was out yesterday, and I’m kicking myself for not picking it up.
4. How does my writing/creating process work?
I like to choose a story that I want to tell, then decide on supplies and photos that best represent my story.
5. How do I become inspired and stay inspired?
Read. Sketch. Be present in life as it’s taking place. Take photos. Peek around pinterest at what some of my favorite scrapbookers are doing a bit. But mostly listen to others talk or write about what’s inspiring them to motivate me to get inspired by my own life.
6. What is my signature style?
Orderly messiness with lots of layers? Would that work? Because I love the mess, but it must be contained. And I love the sleek modern graphic look, but always mix it up with fun vintage elements.
My turn to tag a few of my favorite scrapbookers!
