Creative Chaos - Smash book style

[Colleen]

This seems like too much work! LOL

I like the ease of scrapping and having everything on my computer and EHDs. lol lol lol

I also don't want another book floating around with stuff in it. This might stem from how often we have to pack up and move around here though. ;)

I do like the idea of it, and I really hope you share photos of your smashbook, Gina!!!

Gina -- I have a Michael's 1 minute from my house!! It would be cheaper for me to send you stuff instead of you driving to your closest one!! I have another one about 20 minutes from me too and another about 30 minutes. They are in abundance in my area. I haven't heard of the Smash book stuff though...

Barbara! You are so lucky! My nearest Hobby Lobby is even a little over 2 hours and Walmart and Target 1 hour also! I'm in the boons...lol. I made do for now, made some tabbed dividers from scrap paper and added some paper that matched well with what was included.
Colleen - It is work and I wouldn't do it for just daily happenings. Like I said, it isn't really pictures, it's mostly ideas and numbers, mood boards, the like. I am loving it because we had multiple folders and papers floating around the house that we were always looking for and now I am getting them organized all in one book and it is getting full and fat - love that! I will upload some pics soon

TARGET AN HOUR AWAY?! How do you survive?? LOL!

I have a Target and Wal-Mart within 2 minutes of me directly across the street from each other.

I have to TREK to Michael's a whole 10 minutes away.

I bought a Smash pen today at Joann's. will let you all know how well it works tomorrow.

I also couldn't survive without my Target 2 minutes away

Oh em gee!! This stuff looks like too much fun. Vacating the premise of this point as I type...

[MamaCake]

I have the actual smash pen and I do like it. It's handy to have the glue stick on the end and it seems to work well

I have been thinking about this a lot - I have tons of random bits and I need to do something with them. It seems like the Smash book idea is something that could be really portable, too.........like if I want to go over to my friend's house and scrap. I could just keep all the smash stuff together and grab it and go. Then again, I could put together some good smash stuff from what I already have, too. But I probably won't. So...........

You are kiilling me!! Within minutes of my apartment (all less than 5 miles) I have Michaels, JoAnnes, Hobby Lobby, Target and Walmart. Once we move to the house it will all still be within probably 7 miles! lol

Lucky you! But really, I wouldn't trade rural/country living for anything - not even a Michael's within minutes
