What do you find the most challenging thing about scrapping?

I have trouble with the overall layout of everything. Trying to place photos, the title, journaling, embellishments - it overwhelms me at times. I think that's why I like sketches so much.

making time to actually finish a layout. i don't like starting one unless i know i have time to finish...therefore i often don't get started when i talk about scrapping cuz something always comes up here.

My thoughts exactly!! I wish it would all come naturally, everyone else seems to put their pages together so easily, while I have to struggle and hardly ever like the finished product.

I have to stop myself adding stuff on one page & forcing myself to add more on another!

Titles give me the most trouble!

I think I love sketches for the same reasons as Helen and Megan. I also have Title Trouble, like Holly. But, the sketches help a great deal with placement issues, lol. And I'm learning to get over making every page sound unique. If it documents important things to me or my family, then it doesn't always have to be 'catchy' I guess. (Makes the ones that are, that much better?)

I think that the most challenging part for me right now is deciding what to do....I have so much catc up I NEED to do and so many sketches, recipes, challenges that I want to do!
