I seem to go in spurts of creativity. Times where I ignore the laundry and steal every moment I can to scrap. Other times, I leave it lay for weeks on end. I am lucky to have a dedicated area so I can leave my supplies out for whenever the urge hits to create something. Tonight I just made Mother's Day cards with some of my scrapping scraps!

I set a 'goal' this year to scrap 30 pgs a month (I'd really like to get all those loose pages chronologically into an album!) so I try to complete a page or few two or three days a week.

I don't get to scrapbook nearly enough! I go with my girlfriends maybe once or twice a month to a scrapbooking place to scrap and then everyone once in a while at home. If I had my choice I would be doing it every day!

Awesome giveaways Ali!! I scrapbook everyday. I am doing Becky's 365 project and am loving it!! It has really opened up my eyes to all the small and big things that happen in the day. It's nice that I can involve my kids in the picture taking and journaling as well :) With our busy lives this is perfect!!!

I scrapbook almost daily now that I'm making a Project 365 album for this year. I note the picture for each day, print the pictures out once a week, journal about them once or twice a week as needed, and make layouts for a few really important events or daily "happenings" around our house. I'm also making some headway on some layout ideas from previous years that are important to me.
Thanks, Ali!

I try to scrapbook at least once a week to keep my sanity! :-P Just a busy life. Working on my Masters and working full time. GOOD TIMES! :-P

I don't scrapbook nearly as often as I would like. I recently attempted to scrapbook a page a day for 37 days (part of the Life is a Verb challenge), but lost my rhythm at about day 18. I think about layouts all the time, and see inspiration everywhere. To answer this question: 1-2 times/week on a good week. Thanks for the awesome giveaways! And hope you are all doing well and enjoying these baby-filled days!!

I only spend about 2 hours a week scrapbooking...I sure wish I had much more time to do it!!!

Last June 2008, I scrapped. One page. And it had been a year prior to that that another page was accomplished. Yet I think about it every day. The stories. The photos. All the beautiful goodies I would, if I could . . . And I still gather the bits and pieces, hopeful. Inspired. Dreaming. So . . . at least the thought is there. And I'm still optimistically still taking photos. I believe the time will come when I can spend more time; when I'm not busy making meals, driving somewhere, working on some school or church fund-raising effort, trying to be a part of my families life and not simply documenting it. I love this too much to give up or give in. The time will come. I believe.

I just got home from job #2.I was a full time student - retrained and finally working again. My second job is for extra money,but I am tired. Whenever I get new photos, I start going through my stuff. I might only get a half hour to line things out, but I try to do a couple pages a week. I get together occasionally with a few friends, and we share supplies, and each other, catch up. I will say that scrapbooking is a permanent part of my life, it has been about 12 years, and I can never go back. I am passionate about everything about it.

Thanks for the opportunity Ali!! I have a time issue with scrapbooking sometimes and sometimes just get overwhelmed with how many pictures and how to get organized! I have a great scrapbook room, I have tons of supplies, and lots of ideas... just not a whole lot of time, so it's slow but I do enjoy it a great deal. I need to work on doing simple things. I'm finally breaking down and going on a scrapbook weekend just to try to get something done. I've recently started experimenting with the digital side and love all the products - especially yours.
Thanks again!

I don't get to scrap as often as I like to but I do something crafty and creative about every week. Another hobby I have is photography and I partake in that just about every day :)

I hope I am not too late for the drawing! I scrapbook - even if just for a short time - about once or twice per week.

Did I make it in time??? I wish I could find more time to scrapbook but I try to go to crops at least every couple of months and do little bits and pieces at home in between.

Great giveaway!! I scrap about once or twice a week now that I'm working. It was a lot more when I was home...I miss it.

I try to do something crafty every night.

If I am lucky, I may only scrapbook once a month. Between a full time job, two small children, and managing a household, and playing in the garden, I never seem to be able to work it into my schedule. I am always coming up with new inspiration and 'pages to do'. If you know of how I can add more hours to my day, let me know :D !

Sadly, it seems like lately it is only once every few months or so. Motherhood has been a tough adjustment for me. I love it, I just haven't quite figured out how to organize and prioritize my time yet. I hope to make a bit more time for scrapping though, as my son is going to be 30 before I ever get his first year book done at this rate. Love that kit.

I have a "scrapbook session" at least once a week (on the weekend), but try and do a little bit of scrapping at least once during the week, too. It keeps me sane and relaxed, and keeps my creative juices flowing!

I might get to scrapbook once a week--if the mojo is there. Not often enough, I'm afraid!

Not as often as I'd like. Because I'm a middle school science teacher, I spend most of my time at home planning lessons or grading papers so that doesn't leave much time for scrapbooking. During the school year, I get to do it about once a month. Sometimes, I'll have kids stay after school and we'll scrapbook. However, during the summer, I get to do it as OFTEN as I like! Can't wait for the summer!
By the way, can I just tell you that ANNA is freakin' adorable! You are a very LUCY lady!

Not enough. I am trying to make my space more user friendly, so starting the process doesn't involve me having to clean my entire area to even begin.

Not often enough - I have been able to do very little over the last couple of months due to my pregnancy!
