You're exactly correct. I watch lots of videos for ideas but when I sit down to do it I'm overwhelmed. I get WAY too many materials out and get confused and frustrated! T Y,this does simplify things and helps a great deal.😁💙

Nice video!! I like the idea of having just a few things out to work with. I usually get so overwhelmed when there are too many things to choose from. I have now subscribed to your channel!

It helped a lot Laurie. I don't know where to start half the time, making anything. A junk journal, scrapbook page, embellishments, anything really. So I just dive in and flounder for a while. Then make a plan and try to follow my plan. Maybe limiting myself to just a few items to work with will help. There is so much information out there, wonderful ideas and talented people. I want to do it all...lol Thank you for sharing a great idea.
