Motivation

Most of you know we have moved and have been setting up our apartment. I also had to have surgery on my shoulder, I am doing Physical Therapy and now that things are progressing I need to find motivation to start setting up our office scrapbooking craft room. Where do I start? What do I need to make this space both inspiring and usable for the both of us?

I am a member on the "Live Imagine Create" message board, where we have been doing lots of craft projects, It is more than just scrapbooking. So go check them out, and if you want join us so you can share your projects with us.
Congrats to my SIL Gann who just made the new Design Team at Live Imagine Create. She is so talented and so creative, I am looking forward to see what she comes up with.

Tip for the week

Scrapbook Size: "What is the best albums size for your needs?"

Scrapbooking albums come in all shapes and sizes. There is no one specific album size that is "best" to use, but here are some tips on the various sizes available:

The 12 x 12 papers are readily available and this particular size seems to be a good size to fit pictures and other memorabilia on the pages without too much crowding. You can also buy ready-to-make pages kits in the 12 x 12 size.
If you want a smaller size book go with a 9 x 9 or 6 x 6 size. These sizes are great for children to start with because they are smaller and easier to work with for tiny hands. The 8 1/2 x 11 size is becoming almost obsolete. There are not many scrapbook papers available in that size anymore and the industry seems to be steering away from the 8 1/2 x 11 size and going to the square sizes instead.

side note - if you still want to do the 8 1/2 x 11 you can always cut the paper to size.
