Having spent many years in the art field, in various roles, I used to think scrapbooking was pretty elementary. Very arrogant of me, wasn’t it! Well, I am now on my second scrapbook and I tell you it has really been an uplifting experience. I found when I was working I never seemed to get time to pull out the canvas and paints and then ‘get in the moment’ and feel satisfied with what I had ‘time’ to paint!
Scrapbooking has really filled that void for me, because I have all my papers, stickers, pens, stamps, etc etc organised I can quickly pull them out and in even an hour can produce something that I am happy with. It may not be a finished page, but at least I can see some results. Then pack it all up quickly and put it away til next time.
