The 3 Most Important Rules Of Scrapbooking
Just a while ago I was thinking about doing some scrapbooking. But when I was about to start, I suddenly thought about the process and it gave me the creeps.
I know it must sound strange to you, but everyone of my scrapbooking session went wrong back then. It’s somehow inevitable. For example, at least one of my tools was always missing. Or I was about to finish my session and then ruined the most important cut because I couldn’t lift it of the cutting map properly.
If you have similar experiences I want to share with you my three golden rules for scrapbooking fun. They literally changed they way I did scrapbooking and now I have fun every time I scrapbook.
Golden Rule 1: Organize Your Workplace
In the past I often had a problem: My workplace wasn’t a real workplace. It was just a place where I used to store some of my tools, but there was no real intention involved.
That’s why I couldn’t find a lot of stuff and often the place was still messy from my last session.
I recommend you to design your workplace like an office. Have a place for everything. You will need some tools more often than others and can organize them by priority. And the most important thing is to clean up your workplace carefully after every session.
Golden Rule 2: Tools Are Important
Nothing is worse than ruining a great cut because your scissors is not sharp enough. You can not scrapbook if you haven’t got a complete set of high quality tools. Probably the best of all Cricut tools is the Cricut cutting machine.
Golden Rule 3: Write Down Your Thoughts
At the end of the day you will want your ideas and thoughts well organized and written down. Why? We have great ideas all the time but we forget them immediately if we don’t write them down as soon as we can.
Have a plan, maybe even a process to organize your ideas and thoughts so you never forget them and you will have a great time scrapbooking!
