Welcome back to the high school scrapbook special. In the last article, we covered how you can overcome issues getting started and how to source more materials for your album.
In this post, we'll be heading over to issues that you might encounter when working on your next album.
I simply do not have the time to make one
While this is not an issue concerning with the school scrapbook itself, its is no less a very important one that has to be covered.
You could be suffering from a sore lack of private time. Personal time is time spent doing the things which are necessary to you, doing what you want to do.
Its easy to fall into a pattern that sucks up your free time too - between, working your job, running a house and keeping your family running, time seems to disappear swiftly .
You need to put aside a little time for yourself. A good time for this is right at the end of the day - work is over, dinner and the family is taken care of and you can relax. Find a place that is out of the way, a spare room or a corner in a room that people use infrequently and get yourself set up in there.
You'll be astounded by how much you get done when you're out of a busy traffic area!
My Album Looks Like Everybody Else's!
This is a very common problem and one of the most important surprises is that some individuals do not even see that it is occurring to them. If you do notice - congratulations! You have a keen eye and acute observation skills.
The way this happens is that folks sometimes fall into a routine. While its good to draw inspiration from other people's school scrapbook, it can have the effect of coming out looking similar, if not the same.
I get around this by making the very first page something completely original. Everything I am doing on this page has to be of my very own design using my own creativeness . This puts me into a great process where I then go on to make successive pages using both inspiration and original thought.
So there you go, I have covered the primary issues that many folk seem to have when putting together their school scrapbook. With a little ingenuity and creativeness, you'll notice that you can beat any other scrapbooking problems by tackling them head on!
