I finally did it!
By: SherrieScraps Date: October 7, 2012, 9:52 pm
---------------------------------------------------------
I just finished putting ALL my layouts in albums,
chronologically!! I emptied them all, sorted the layouts in
piles by decade (before 1980, 1980's, 1990's, 2000's, 2010's).
Then I sorted the decades (luckily for me, I dated almost every
layout) and started putting them in albums. I have 6 We R
Memory Keepers leather D-ring albums and two American Crafts
D-ring. 7 of them are full! The 8th one has layouts from this
year in them with plenty of room to add more.
Whew! I really enjoyed looking at my layouts again, and I was
tempted to re-do a few, but decided not to. It's kinda funny to
see how my scrappy style has evolved over the years.
Now, when I scrap older pictures, I need to put them in the
right place in the albums from now on! Anybody else ever do
this?

yes. since i scrap out of order. I am forever moving stuff
around from book to book due to space issues. I am moving to a
new style now so I don't have to do the post expanders anymore.
they are the pits. the only issue i have is that the ring
binders are so UGLY!!!

CONGRATS!!!! I enjoy looking back at my pages too. Its fun to
watch the evolution. Some of the earlier ones, I left as is, but
rescrapped the photo because back then I didn't do much
journaling.
I've decided I don't care about order. I have dates noted in the
journaling so I'm not going to mess with it - besides I have an
idea where all the pages are at anyway....all the grandkids are
getting their own album by family - (not individual) so as I get
photos and download I scrap and they seem to be in order just
doing that.

Resa, the We R Memory Keeper Leather (or Faux Leather) albums
are gorgeous and come in 30 different colors. Mine are all
navy. The American Craft Albums are fabric and I don't like
them, but I got them cheap with a coupon at M's. I want to get
more of the leather albums but need to save up some $$ and watch
for a sale. I've found them all over the place for anywhere
between 20 and 30 dollars (plus shipping, they are heavy). I
got the last two at Amazon.com because they offer free shipping
if you spend more than 25.00.
Lynn, it is fun to see how your scrapping style evolves. I was
surprised to see that I had scrapped the same picture twice a
couple of times!

CONGRATS!
I drove myself bananas at a time trying to keep everything "in
order" too....I gave up and if it gets into an album I consider
it a good thing :D

Yea me too - I have 4 boxes of LOs sitting behind me that need
to either go in albums - or give then to who is gonna "inherit"
them now! Leaning that way...
I have 6 albums plum full - and no where to keep them.
I have pics of them all - so I can always "slideshow" them,
while I am making more.
