Tips on Catching up in your Scrapbook/Planner

Are you, like me, behind in your scrapbooking? Overwhelmed with where to start? In this video, I share my tips on how to catch up quickly. I scrapbooked these five spreads in an afternoon and it was easier than I thought. (I am working in my Elizabeth Craft Designs teal planner which is now discontinued, but there are other colors to choose from. The Desert Sand is my current favorite and I have linked to it below for you.)

I love that you share your thought process with us. I never get started because I don’t know how to begin. Thank you so much for your explanations and making the whole process doable Annette. I love this!

[@AnnetteGreen]

I'm so glad to hear this Therese because it's really my goal. I want to encourage and enable viewers, not just show pretty stuff. I hope others feel the same. Thanks so much, my friend.

Greetings from California from a new subscriber. I've watched for awhile but have not commented as I watch KZbin on TV mostly. But you have posted so many great videos I just had to tell you that I love your style. I agree with you that a little cutesy goes along way. I like every page you have made. Seeing pages with photos are more interesting to me than ones without. I was an Elizabeth Craft fan already with her booth at Scrapbook Expo in Sacramento being my favorite. It was also cool to meet her. Now you have inspired me and I have started my first travelers notebook. All the best to you and thanks for sharing.

[@AnnetteGreen]

How wonderful Rebecca! And thanks for subscribing. Your feedback means the world to me and I'm so happy you have been enjoying my videos. Many many more to come! Thanks again.

[@carolnelson3808]

You are a blessing Annette! You have inspired me get some picture onto the pages of my scrapbooks instead of just looking at my supplies and thinking “where do I start?”. Thank you!

[@AnnetteGreen]

So great to hear Carol! I hope you do. Thanks so much for watching and for the feedback. It helps me a lot.

[@juliepoole6391]

I love watching your videos. Your style of scrapbooking appeals to me so much Thank you ..xx

[@AnnetteGreen]

Awesome Julie! I'm so glad you enjoy them. Thanks so much!

[@susanwhipple5604]

Oh thank you for this encouraging and inspiring video! I have been stuck and not getting anything done and this is just what I needed! Now I am ready to tackle some projects!

[@AnnetteGreen]

Awesome Susan! I'm so happy!! Thanks and I hope you get a lot accomplished.

Hello Annette. Love the video. good tip that you don't have to do the entire page at once. I like that idea a lot and will try it. Your bee tattoo is amazing - is it Jamie's artwork? what an amazing gift she has.

[@AnnetteGreen]

Hey Laura! Thanks. And yes, the tattoo is Jamie's artwork. They did this for me on Mother's Day, which made it extra special. They're still experimenting but I think they're pretty darn good at it too. I'll pass on your comment when I see Jamie again. Thanks again.

[@denisebotko7456]

I was starting to get worried! So happy to see this post as I love everything you do!

[@AnnetteGreen]

Haha! I'm not going anywhere. Not to worry. If you don't see me for a while that just means I'm super busy. Thank you so very much Denise!

[@cherylwells1266]

Annette - I just love watching you when you are creating, no matter what project, your creativeness is so, so informative and down to earth!!! Oh, and by the way, I love your Queen Bee on your arm - I had a very nice tattoo put on my left leg after my husband passed in 2005.

[@AnnetteGreen]

Hi again Cheryl. Thanks so much! That makes me smile. And regarding the tattoo THANK YOU! Jamie did that for me on Mother's Day. It's very special, as I'm sure yours is even more so. I love that you did that in honor of your husband. I'm sorry he's passed.

[@cherylwells1266]

@@AnnetteGreen Thank you and yes he was a special man!!! We always went to Hawaii for Christmas and New Year's so the tattoo is a song title by Israel (Iz) Kamakawiwo"ole . The song is "In This Life" and if you Google it, listen to the words - a lot of his music was played and everyone was asked to wear Hawaiian attire. Iz passed away, long before my husband but the funeral was Hawaiian here in Texas - we loved Hawaii!!

[@louiseluna7375]

I heard you mention something briefly on the Graphic 45 card kits. Is that something new? Could you give more information on it. Thank you!

[@AnnetteGreen]

I don't think that was me who mentioned that, but they do have a wonderful ClubG45 program where you can subscribe and receive card making kits shipped to you with directions and step-by-step photos. Graphic 45 also does an assembly video for free to go along with those card kits on their KZbin channel.

[@cindyalain7470]

Just discovered your channel! Spending some time this afternoon watching your videos. I think you just may become one of my favorites!

[@AnnetteGreen]

Well that’s wonderful Cindy! Welcome! Thank you so much. More to come soon.

[@peggyorr1145]

@@AnnetteGreen A girl can dream! I decided to wait and start with 2022 - I’m just getting started .

[@jessa7128]

I just started getting interested in “scrapbooking” like this. This was a really great video on playing catch up. Do you save all your photos per year per season?

[@AnnetteGreen]

Thank you so much. As for your question, if you mean how do I organize my photos on my computer? Let me know and I'll be sure to come back and answer.

[@jessa7128]

@@AnnetteGreen yes. :)

[@AnnetteGreen]

@@jessa7128 So, what I do is save in Folders in my Photos program, usually not by season necessarily, but more by topic. I always name my folders by the date first, then brief description of what's in the folder. For example: "05/22 Fall and Thanksgiving" or "03/22 Hiking Trip in NC". I hope that helps you.

[@jessa7128]

@@AnnetteGreen ah, I see. Thank you for taking the time to share that with me. I have pictures all over the place thinking I’ll remember and don’t.

[@juliepoole6391]
