I hate not finding time to scrap when I have been at work all day. By the time I have cooked, eaten, washed up etc Its fairly late and I don't tend to start scrapping as a) the light isn't great and b) I know that if I start I am unlikely to ever stop and then will never go to bed!!
I started digi scrapping briefly. This meant I could scrap at nights and easily stop mid-layout. Trouble is, it just doesn't 'do it' for me. Does anyone know what I mean??
So, has anyone got any advice? Shall I just put up with longing but not scrapping at night?? This would leave my weekends (Well, Sundays every other week as I have to work) and my blissful, wonderful Tuesdays.
WHAT can I do to feel scrappy without getting too involved and also without getting lost staring at the laptop for hours.
Heeeeeellllllppppp!!! I want to use my new found mojo as much as possible!!!!

Hows about hybrid scrapping? Do your digi bits at night and then print them out, then..at the weekend in more light you can assemble pages, add pretty papers and stick bits on to bump up your layout. I've noticed Amy prints her page on 8.5 x 11 and then sticks it to 12 x 12 sometimes and adds a few mini embellishments. They look fab. I know what you mean about digi. I do love it for quick story telling but I miss pretty papers too :)
I always scrap at night though, never thought about the light, but tend not to scrap "real" pages at night because of the mess involved!!
i think you just have to get stuck in, whatever the time! but start somewhere where you can just walk away and leave the mess until next time....
