[Shellie]

I need to get motivated!! Someone kick me, please!!

I am going to scrap the pics I have of our grandkids to give to my kids for Christmas. That's 4 grandkids. 3 are in one family and one was just born so that won't be too hard, but still! I need to get busy and can't seem to get motivated!

Alyson,
You are funny! Shellie, the hardest part is just getting started. Maybe do a scraplift to get you going. Or select some colors you want to use. Or start with the pictures. You can do it!!!

[supermombritt]

I agree with Madeline. Go through the albums on here and find one you like. I find it is easier for me to do it that way rather than come up with it on my own. I don't have the creative side in me when it comes to coming up with my own pages.

[Shellie]

Alyson... LOL http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v196/Shellie2004/smilies/yourock.gif

Thanks ladies. That is a good idea. That is part of my problem... no creativity.

[Alyson]

Shellie, I thought you would like that...you are the smilie queen!

[Kelli West]

i love the smilies! Thanks for the good laugh you gusy!

[LucyLu]

use someof the "ploppers" (already made layouts) and just plop the photo in and add words... change the color if need be.. wa la done I use these when I need a lot of pages fast

[montmeag]

Here's some ideas to make it easier and faster. Make a template and use the same basic template with each one but just use different papers, embellisments, etc. Or just find a kit you love and use that same kit for all of them. That way you don't have to worry about coordinating your papers and all that. JUST DO IT!! :cheer: And don't forget to share!

[supermombritt]

Shelli do the quick page exchange. I can't believe how many pages I got just from doing one page.

[kmsarles]

I posted a template thread here (http://forum.digitalscrapbookmemories.com/showthread.php?p=88778#post88778) if anyone wants to share!

[Shellie]

You ladies are great! Thanks for the ideas!!

Shellie I have faith in you! You can do it!

[April]

I am going to scrap the pics I have of our grandkids

GRANDKIDS? I thought you were 30ish from your profile pic. Were you a teen mom?

[Shellie]

April, can you be my new best friend? I'm 44. :ILoveIt:

We have 6 kids. The oldest 3 are from my husband's first marriage but I raised them and they were sealed to us about 3 years ago. I was 18 when the oldest 2 were born (twins) so I could be their bio mom. The kids are 26 and 24. One twin has a daughter and the other one has a daughter on the way. Our 24 yr old daughter has 3 kids.


Thanks, Jenny. :)

Jamie... lol.... thank you!

[Kelli West]

Shellie--how's the pages coming? Any progress:)

[chryslergreen]

YOU CAN DO IT SHELLIE! Even if your pages aren't the most creative, your family will LOVE them.

[Shellie]

Kim, nothing. The baby has been sick.

Thanks, Lynnette!

[Kim Hansen]

Sick Still? Did it go clear through the family? I hope you all get better SOON!

[Shellie]

Thanks.

Started with me, which usually never happens, and went through all 3 kids. Of course, it's been one at a time instead of all 3 at once to get it over with. I tried really hard to kep it away from the baby, but no such luck.
