[123SA]

Wow! Great pages Rebecca!

Thanks! All I did was stick photos and journaling down on swap items and put it on cardstock- very easy. That is how I did so many in a weekend.

Hey -- don't sell yourself short. If it were that easy, we'd all have 10 pages to post!

It is that easy- just choose out the photos and do it. I find the main problem people have is they are saving that page or item for the perfect picture and want it to be perfectly in line- nothing is going to be perfect and done is better than just sitting around- my motto is just do it- when it comes to scrapping. Don't be afraid to use the paper you have in case you take a better picture sometime- use it now and have a chance to enjoy it and allow others to appreciate it also. What good are those swap items if they are just sitting in our drawers, boxes, and carts- get them out and use them to finish a few pages.

I love all your pages! It's always exciting to see your own items used, isn't it? Those are my Lion King pieces (j. boxes, circles and quote box). I'm glad you could use them!

I am going to a 3 day Scrap Pink crop at the end of September, and I have been starting to plan what I'll work on for that. I totally agree that I have been saving many swap items for "later" because they were just so great I didn't want to use it and not have it anymore. No more of that! I am planning on using a ton of stuff for that weekend.

Good for you. I found kitting my items made such a difference. It was easy to pull it out and paste it down. Besides if you use up all your swap items you have an excuse to join more swaps and make new things.

I just got my first swap items and am looking forward to using the Snow White cameo set I got and will hopefully be able to post. I dont know exactly who I first read it from but I found that the kitting idea using gallon sized baggies really does help! I hope to be a user of swap peices and not a horder.
I took part in the paper swap and have started using some of it for my AK swap peices. Does that count for anything?

I sorted all my pics for the DLRP trip in my CM box (OK it was a BIT bulgy and I didn't have enough "pages" but by doubleing up I managed but yes it does help to have pics and swap items all ready to go, that's why I had a load of pages to post too (this was mostly from ONE day, scrapping in between getting kids school stuff ready). I still had to choose paper, and some pages had to change because the swap items were a colour which didn't quite work with the pics I took, but I agree its too easy to save everything. Same with patterned paper - I worry its a "waste" to use a whole sheet on one page - what else am I going to use it for?
