No nearly often enough. I have a standing date once a month, and then, if I'm lucky, at least once more. I'm thankful for every chance I get though!

I scrap in fits and starts.......I will go straight through for days, and then not for a month!

I an ideal situation I would scrapbook every day but realistically I find my way to my room about once or twice a week.

I generally spend more time thinking and planning for scrapbooking than actually getting to cut and paste. I try to do 1-2 retreats a year where I get 20+ pages done at a time, along with 2-3 Friday night crops a year with friends.

I try to do something (work on a mini-album or a page layout or make a card) at least once a week. But more often than not after dealing with the kids all day I only have the energy to THINK about scrapping!!

How often do I actually scrapbook? Not that often right now. I'm overwhelmed with the rest of my life. But I THINK about scrapbooking every day.

I try to scrapbook at least once a month. My goal is a two-page layout for each month of the year, just my favorite photos and stories, so I don't get too overwhelmed. I can always do more layouts if I want to.

I try to scrapbook at least once a week. Very often I start a layout and have it on my desk and every time I pass by the layout grows. On the weekends I tell my family to leave me alone - nobody cares - and so the time for scrapbooking depends on how quick I can tiptoe away.
I love the opportunities, when my kids need cards for birthdays or school and force my to make some cards. Poor me :-))

I scrapbook almost every day. Sometimes I leave the house to scrapbook. Most times, I just sit down at my table. Somedays it is about creating, some days about sorting, but even if all I do is sit there for 15 minutes to think about the project that is out, I feel renewed again. I think that is why it is so hard for me to put everything away!Sometimes I just like looking at it.

I don't get to scrapbook very often, maybe twice a month... I'm going to be quitting my job soon to stay home with my baby (due in July). I'm hoping this will allow me some more time to fit my hobby in between naps and feedings :-)

WOW, WOW, WOW...cool giveaways! I try and scrapbook (or do something creative, every single day! any of these products would be helpful in keeping it that way! :-)

I really need to start scrapping again. I am not sure what happened. It kinda got pushed aside for oter hobbies. But I am still taking TONS of pictures all the time :)

About once a week. I head to our local scrapbook store and spend the evening there. Sometimes with people I know (I don't get much done!), sometimes with people I don't know (I get a little more done), and sometimes it's just me (I get loads done!). I do my planning at home (photos printed, layout chosen, paper chosen) and assemble at the store. If I'm lucky, I don't have paper at home that works so I buy it at the store. Darn! ;o)

Hahaha... this sounds familiar. I'm so hooked to the internet and all the creativity out there! :-)

whenever I can!!:)

hi ali,
literally, it's any moment i can steal away from work and regular home stuff. it may only be 5 minutes or 10 minutes during the week. on the weekend, it stretches to 30 minutes, depending on the kids. they have their own stash, but they are only 2 & 4, so they need a lot of guidance. cutting and punching paper usually keeps them occupied for 20 minutes or so. my most recent 8x8 scrapbook project for my girlfriend took 3 months to finish. but it did finally get done and mailed to her!

I just got my own scrapbook room so I'm scrappin'/craftin' a little every day, just a few minutes here and there. I used to be afraid to start anything because I would have to clean it all up in an hour or so and so I never started. Now I can leave out projects and shut the door. Sooo great!

Once I finished the first 18 years of my daughter's life, I now only scrapbook when an 'event' occurs. Like a 50th birthday, a wedding, etc.

Your blog is one of the first I check out every day. Growing up in southern Oregon I love seeing your images of areas close to my home. I also love Giveaway Wednesday. Love the CCatslife Press stamps!!

I work full time (10+ hours a day), so daily, I do no scrapbooking. The only time it seems that I get to scrapbook at all these days is if I plan to go to a crop for a full day, or I have a taken on a project as a gift and need to get it done. I scrapbook so little these days, that the last time I went to a crop, I realized I hadn't even printed any pictures in the last year! I take a lot, but guess I don't print them! I want to make time for it on the weekends, but working so much leaves little time to spend with my husband, so I feel guilty about doing it on the days we have to spend together. So the short of it all, I don't scrapbook often, and I miss it!
