    I'm going back over the POP videos to refresh my memory as I finally finish sorting the last photo storage box of 45+ years of photos to get ready for putting them into scrapbooks. I'm very excited to get started on this HUGE project that was on my retirement bucket list. The overwhelming task of getting so many pictures organized for scrapbooking was keeping me from getting started. I can't thank you enough for sharing this POP process. I'm hoping to make a lot of progress in the last half of this year. Thanks, Lauren!

    I am inspired. I too have been "looking back". I am facing around 300 albums. What happened started 25 years ago. I got married and he had his photos from before and I had my photos from before and we were taking new photos of our life together. Then my parents died and his parents and his Aunt Gladys and my Aunt Carrie and a couple of others. All those photos came to me, because by now I'm the Scrapbooker in the family. When I first started with Aunt Gladys' Collection it was a hot mess. I didn't have all the "cool" stuff this probably was when scrapbooking was just starting to take off. I just made a digital page with some clip art for boarders and a text box with the who, what, when and where and another colored box to place the photo, printed it off on white cardstock, placed the photo, punched 3 holes and put it in a binder. I was done. How simple. Then you know what came after. All those pretty 12x12 papers and albums, stamps, stickers, cricut, dies, inks, pens, brads OMG. I've got at least 10 projects started. All the scrapbooking organization videos focus on managing my inventory and selling me more containers. I spend more time on managing inventory then the purpose of the inventory. Hopefully your POP will get me back on tract. Will keep you posted.

    Lauren, thank you is not adequate!!!
    My lovely friend & advisor today recommended this series when I told her that I was feeling unmotivated since my brain is stuck on the concept of chronological.
    I see life as an evolvement and the only way to document this is to do photo journalism.
    So many words throughout the first 6 “pop” series were so relatable. I found myself nodding my head in agreement so often, I’m glad no one was watching me!
    I was a consultant with CM for so many years before it changed hands…life happened and I am ready to rejoin now. 🎉
    I am going to soak up your excitement and experience as much as possible. Blessings ❤

    Diana again; goodness im glad i reviewed this again. Ive misplaced my theme album trackers. I sometimes get ideas to put there.
    I hadnt noticed you use the Happy album. I cant believe all these nites are going to fit in that narrow album! Have to check.
    So glad you have these episodes in video on U-tube! I'll bet there are lots of us that appreciate these reviews.

    Thanks for the organizational templates! I’m so excited to begin this journey with you. I have been scrapping since mid-90’s when my sister-in-law took me to a creative memories meeting after the national convention. I was hooked and began my journey. I have tried almost everything from digital to mini albums, but haven’t scrapped much for several years. This is motivating me to jump in again as I have decades of family pictures to work with. Looking forward to your videos!

    The flip through of your album spoke volumes to me! I have been Scrapbooking Big Moments, Themes and Library of Moments albums for 30 years. My pages are photo heavy and I don't tend to heavily embellish. This is what drew me to CM in the '90's in the first place. For the past several years I feel like Dr. Who journeying to different lands searching for something lost (simple storytelling), but upon seeing your flip through, I knew I had found a home! I will be joining you on your POP journey, and subscribing etc. Thank you for all the time and effort you have already, and will in the future, out into this series. New Subbie and New Groupie!

It would be great if u would list a timeline so when we need to review & follow the directions we can start &/or stop instead of having to watch the whole video multiple times, when it’s not needed. Also, I followed the link you used to get the « Premier Laser Paper » but it showed only « glossy ». Is that what you used? I’d rather use a Matte Finish. If u can recommend a Matte type of Premier Paper I would greatly appreciate it. I can’t wait to get started.

    Wow, Laura, this is so generous and kind that you are sharing all of these resources with us!! I have to admit I kinda miss the simpler way of putting together albums. I have a question for you. With the CM albums & Library of Memories, I think I would want the ability to rearrange the pages. Any tips on how to do that with CM albums? I thought about just “floating” a layout over the CM page without using adhesive to stick them down under the page protector but I don’t want them to fall out.

    • @CraftSomeJoy
      @CraftSomeJoy  4 роки тому +1

      Great question Renee, I have been thinking about this too! I am considering using the top load pages so that moving around would be easy. I like your idea too! I think I have to get in it a bit more to see what works, I do love those traditional pages!

    • @dramamama28
      @dramamama28 4 роки тому +3

      @@CraftSomeJoy Renee, floating is a great way to describe exactly what I do. I use the standard CM pages and protectors. I place my completed layout on the CM page, put the protector on, but I don't adhere it until the album is absolutely complete. I then go back and adhere my pages. It have really made a difference in just getting it done and not stressing over being able to rearrange things if I need to.

I've never been a planner except for I do keep track of my inventory and photos and family timeline on my computer. I have been wanted to set up something and purchased 2 sets of planner from TM for a great price, but they have just been sitting there as I didn't know where to go with this. Now I will follow you and am have big hopes for this for me. I have been doing Creative Memories for over 25 years; have many albums finished but many, many more on my list. As time goes by and my life is getting shorter, I am really hoping that this will get me on track to leave this legacy sometime to my only son. Thank you and I can't wait until the next episode!

My problem is that when I print there is one inch margin on the top. So every thing is running off the page. I'm not sure how to correct this. Was wondering if you knew. I have a Mac.
