Clear Scraps Giveaway

I've been putting away doing my wedding album. I'm scared to scrapbook my wedding pictures, because I'm afraid of the result. Those are my most inmportant pictures!

When she moved a couple of years ago, my mother-in-law found a box of family photos her mother had. The photos and documents date back to the late 1800's. I've been intending to copy the photos and make albums for my mother-in-law, her sister, my brother-in-law & my husband. (The originals to be stored in archival safe boxes.) But, I just can't seem to come up with a design for the album I like and will be easy to reproduce. I think part of the stumbling block is that my in-laws are very picky, and I really want to impress them.

I have been putting over a Sisters album that I truly want to do for each of my sisters ...finally got all the old photos sorted and with the passing of our brother, I feel the need to get this done and in their hands. I WANT to do it...but I think I am avoiding the emotions that will come with it.

I have been putting off completing the album you did in Chicago at Windy City Scrapbooking...bought the kit, couldn't get into the class :(
I assembled it right away in hopes that I'd be on top of things...titled it August '08 and took notes of my days...
Now it sits here with a few completed pages. But life just gets in the way sometimes and my family has to come first and I want it that way...but I swear I will finish it!

These are gorgeous! I've been putting off scrapbooking our trip to the Grand Canyon. I did a thank you book for my MIL, but I've not done anything with my trip report or the ephemera I gathered. It's a lot of stuff!

i have been putting off a brag book for my grandma mainly due to a lack of needed pictures and fear of being unoriginal.
thanks for another great giveaway!

I want to do a album with pictures of just me and my husband to remind us how we began. With two kiddos and a busy work schedule, I think it will be a nice reminder of the foundation of our family -- just him and I. I think a clear album would be really pretty for that! Thanks, Ali, for your wonderful website! I find lots of inspiration from it!

I've been putting off my daughter's wedding album. I haven't had the time to start a big project and want to wait until I can enjoy it, not just do it.

I started putting together a "baby's first year" book for my girlfriend. I only have 3 months done and the baby is now 3 months old! I really need to finish it, but I'm feeling overwhelmed by it. I know I need to just dive in and get my hands into it again, I just keep finding other things to work on!

A project I have been putting off is finishing up an album from a family trip to Disney in 2006! I waited too long and now the stories and memories are fading...and I'm not as inspired about the trip. I have learned and now try to at least write down the memories soon after and tuck them away for when I have time to scrap them!

I have been putting off scrapping my christmas photos from last year, and I would LOVE to get them scrapped before this christmas rolls around!

I have been putting off doing an album that displays the evolution of my life during the past year. 15 months ago, my husband of 12 years decided he was ready to move on in life with someone else. Devasted, I had to create a new life for myself and my son. I have documented via journaling and photos the events of the last year as a form of therapy.

How cool! I have been putting off doing a project on my Grandmother. I cannot decide if it should be a mini album or a page. Lately, I have been thinking a lot about her and wish she could have met my son! He would have learned so much from her.

The project I keep putting off is one I saw somewhere...the "just in case book." Just in case something would ever happen to me...it's a little album with a letter to each of the important people in my life. I think it's a fantastic idea and want to do it but keep putting it off for the reason that it does remind you that you won't be around and is kind of depressing to think about. I mean...how can you put into words all of the things you want to say to your husband...children...and loved ones....it's a tough one to start but one I'm sure will be worth it.

My wedding album...it's only been 3 months, but with school starting this teacher just hasn't found the time!

I have been putting off several travel albums I would like to make. I have recently had a surge of creative energy and I have taken the first step to get all my photos organized and printed. I must get out of the mentality of chronological scrapping and be motivated by which project sounds most exciting at the moment. Thanks Ali for all the great giveaways.

Love your blog! I have been putting off scrapbooking my trip to Washington DC. I know that I want it to be a mini album, but I just haven't gotten an inspiration of supplies to put together for it.

I've been putting off doing a book on a trip I took to California (I'm from NC). I took this trip 6 (!) years ago as part of a Girl Scout Council group to attend a convention.
I think part of my problem is I'm no longer a volunteer with GS and it was not an amicable parting.
But I really LOVE the pictures - saw and did some things I'll probably never do again (I drove a total of 8 hours in a rented mini-van to take a group of us to Tiajuana (sp?) just so we could say we've been! and we spent a night on the Queen Mary and even talked an employee into letting us see the "haunted" swimming pool).
I just can't seem to get motivated to do them!

I tend to put off anything for myself. There is always something I'm doing for SOMEONE ELSE that needs to be done and is more important.
Except the minibook for my brother and SIL. That I'm stuck on I think because I didn't start it with a limited list of supplies. I have too many supplies for it and when I get things out it's overwhelming.

I have yet to start my daughters baby album (she will be 5 on Monday). Like everyone told me, the first child's will be no problem, the second not so easy. They were right. I do have the pictures ready, so I'm hoping with my scrapbooking weekend coming up in November I will get started on it.
