Wednesday Sponsor Giveaways: Express The Moment, aCloset.com, & Catslife Press

I feel like I'm constantly thinking about scrapping. I'm either reading a magazine, taking my picture of the day or working on my 365 days album. But the sitting down and doing 30 pages usually only happens at a weekend crop.

lately...not very much. i've been really overwhelmed with so much stuff that i haven't felt the urge to scrapbook. i do go to a stampin' up class once a month and that gets me motivated to do something crafty! my daughter and i have spent hours in the past week making lots of gifts for teacher appreciation week! would love some new goodies!

I scrapbook at random times, before dinner, when everyone goes to bed, first thing in the morning. When the mojo hits I have to grab it and run! Those are some awesome giveaways!

I have a few hours every afternoon, but after I get stuff done around the house, there's not much left. And when my daughter comes home from school, I try and keep her happy and busy, so it depends on what we're doing. Some days she'll sit in the studio with me and work happily alongside me, but most of the time she likes zooming around all over so I follow her whim.
I keep thinking if maybe I get more ORGANIZED or efficient about using my time I'll be more creative. But the truth is it shouldn't be something I feel guilty about if I don't get to it. I'm trying to learn that, and to just enjoy *whatever* it is I am doing.

It varies depending on my mood but mostly I try to get in at least one crafty thing one every two weeks. Sometimes more.

I don't often take/make the time to scrapbook, but I've got one book in progress and have lots of plans for others. It's important to me to document my daughter's childhood, so I want to make scrapbooking a higher priority.

Love the new catslife stamps! Right now, with an active 2-yr-old at home with me, I only scrapbook once a month. I'd like to get back to once a week when things settle down a bit.

I don't scrapbook in the traditional sense very often. I do however subscribe to the Stacy Julian state of mind so I scrapbook every day! I might just look at my pictures or notice a great color scheme. I might write down something one of my children said that day. Although I don't play with papers every day, I'm constantly scrapbooking!

I'm a sporadic paper scrapper. I'll scrap every day for a month, and then I'll put things away for awhile until the urge to scrap hits again. I also do digital scrapping, and that I'll do 2-3 times a week.

I scrapbook once or twice a week, sometimes more, but I wish I could do it everyday. Not enough time, or not enough energy to do it though... Thanks for the giveaway!

These days it seems like I have to sign up for a class to make the time to scrapbook. The inspiration is returning though so I'll say once a week for a few hours fit in here and there. With a little guy it's been difficult to find that balance between mama, wife and me. I'm getting there! Thanks for all that you do.

Right now I'm on a creative kick, so I scrapbook everday (even if it's just getting pictures together, picking out paper or actually making a page). There are times I'll go weeks, but that hasn't in quite a while!!

Mentally - all the time. But actually, it is every few weeks now. I am going wiht the flow.

Up until recently, most of my "scrapbooking time" consisted of checking out blogs & message boards...and *thinking* about scrapping actual pages. However, I signed up for the May 2009 LOAD challenge and I'm happy to say that I'm spending a minimum of 1 hr per day (and a few more than that this past weekend) on my hobby. Can't say that will continue, but I do hope to make regular time for it in my week.

I think about scrapping almost everyday. I'm not sure why I make it such a drawn out process. I am so happy when I get a LO or mini album completed. It seems as if I am always in the stage of "Work in Progress" but then again maybe that is just part of my journey

I'm thinking about it every day....pictures I've taken or want to, or ideas for stories that need told or layouts I want to do. The actual doing: maybe once a week. Or less....:(

How often I scrapbook depends on how much mojo I have, but I've learned that I need to be creative in some way (even if it's browsing blogs) every day. I guess I actually scrapbook at least once a week, sometimes more and sometimes less. :)

I scrapbook or art journal several times a week. It's so much easier now that I have a little scraproom of my own, I don't have to put everything away after crafting and just leave the stuff I'll be using on the current project within a few days on my table and shut the door. So when I feel like crafting I can just pop in there and work right on, in stead of having to get out all my supplies again. Sometimes I just add a layer of paint or jot a few things down, other times I'm in there for hours. And apart from the scrapbooking itself I spend time reading scrapbookmagazines, sorting out my photo's or visiting scrapblogs on the laptop and there are always a few scrapbooking ideas maturing in my head. So in a way it's a full time thing ;-)

I would say once a month right now. Girlfriends and I get together for about 6 hours and scrap and chat, sometime more chatting than scrapbooking:)

I get up early on Saturday and Sunday mornings to work on Scrapbooking!It gives me peace and quiet and I don't get the rolled eyes, "Scrapbooking again?????"
