Is there anyway to have some type of challenge or thread ongoing in the everday chatter? That if someone wanted to at the beginning of each month list 'their individual scrapbooking challenge' and get encouragement and ACCOUNTABILITY and at the end of the month respond with how you have done.
I say non gallery (unless someone wants to post pages in the gallery) because I personally find I scrap differently when doing for challenges...by photos I use and what journaling I do or do not do.
I say individual because not everyone wants/needs the same challenge. My challenge would be to choose the topic of an album and make 6 pages that flow together. Someone else might want a challenge to finish a particular album, or get all the photos and digi supplies chosen for a particular project.
I say accountability because for me that is a motivator. In April in the Inspiration Challenge with Memory Mosaic I made a page and listed some goals for my scrapbooking. I went back and looked at the page and haven't done anything with the goals.
If I had used all the hours I've spent on challenges, browsing through the gallery, buying 'deals', downloading and organizing 'deals," reading through the forum, I could probably have a 100 page album done.
I'm rambling.
