So a big part of scrapbooking is scrap-shopping. No need to lie about it. It is still cheaper than therapy, not fattening, doesn't show up on a drug screen, done primarily by women (marriage friendly), doesn't require advanced skills (socially, athletically, or in fashion) and usually it is done without kids. Add chocolate and it is perfect.
When buying premade elements you still want your pages to look like... well, you. Find elements that fit your photos and help tell the story... (Dragonflies flying and fly away hair). Customize the premade elements by trimming out the border, adding raised glue dots, adding liquid crystal or glitter. If you like a lot of bling don't let the premade aspect stop you. If you are a strict two color girl, stick to your rules and focus on the strength of those unifying elements. It can take lots of time off your page and let you get to the fun of embellishing sooner.
Oh, and if you are following this "daily" blog, I think I am caught up now!
