Essentials Cricut
3 Fast Tips For Effortless Scrapbooking Projects
A few weeks I go I would feel sick whenever I went near my scrapbooking place. From experience I knew that whenever I actually try to do serious work, something goes wrong. Often my tools broke or I couldn’t find them and almost every time I ruin a difficult cat as I try to lift it off the cutting mat.
These are all but little annoyances but they add up and snowball into frustration. And when you’re frustrated you have no chance in hell of getting into “the Zone” and get creative work done.
One day I decided why this always seems to happen to me. I decided to take a close look at my creative process itself and not the content – and now I look forward to my scrapbooking every time!
In the next few minutes I will teach you what I’ve found works best to get a lot of creative work done in one session:
Tip #1 – Design Your Workplace With Intention
Take a blank piece of paper and write two lists. On the first list, put down everything you need and how often you need it. On the other side jot down the different techniques and methods you typically use for a project.
Then consciously design your space kind of like an office. Now put everything into the right place and you’ll enjoy much better scrapbooking sessions!
Tip #2 – Use Good Tools
I cannot overemphasize how important a good set of tools are.
I recommend the Cricut essentials tool kit even if you don’t own a pricey Cricut cutting machine.
Tip #3 – Have A Finishing Routine
At the end of a session, have a routine in place for cleaning everything up and going through your materials. As you put your stuff away, write down any materials that you have to buy. If you don’t do it now, you will surely forget!
If you use just these three tips from now on, your projects will be much more enjoyable. Especially the first one has done it for me.
