I’ve been
noticing that for the past few months that my
scrapbooking projects are turning out mostly the
same, partly due to design and partly because I
keep buying similar supplies. I’m stuck in a
scrapping rut! Seems that when I like
something, then I tend to stick with it.
Reminds me of
when I go out to eat. I usually order the same
things again and again. The Cheesecake Factory
has fifty different delicious cheesecakes and
deserts, but I have only ever tasted one of
them! The Chocolate Mousse Cheesecake is my
favorite and I see no need to try anything
else. Why take a chance on something new if you
like what you already have?
This brings me
back to scrapping. In the ever-changing world
of scrapbooking, I am seeing the need to try new
things - new colors, new designs, and new
embellishments - or risk being stagnant and
outdated. I will make a conscious effort to
break out of my comfort zone and buy products I
normally wouldn’t and create designs that are
not my norm, hopefully to end the rut!
Break out of
your creative comfort zone with me and reinvent
yourself! You may be pleasantly surprised by
what you get!

Editor's
note:
Having four
photos grouped together in this sketch is
great for using them to tell a story,
showing off different poses of a subject,
get creative with one photo and change the
colors or style in Photo Shop for an artsy
look.

I shortened the border
lengths to give a column effect over the
photo block. |

Editor's
note:
Make the design yours! Instead of a flower embellishment on the
bottom left corner of the photo group, Michelle used a train
running on the railroad track that is her
lower border.

Journaling: To you, it’s all about
