Saturday Scrapbooking Ideas #29
Sometimes the thought of creating a scrapbook album of someone’s life or maybe creating an album for an older child can seem daunting when you think of all the photos and events there are to go through.
Start scrapping the most recent events first. We tend to fall into the trap of feeling that we have to start at the beginning. But your memory of most recent events will obviously be better than of events longer ago. So your journaling will get the benefit of that.
Also, when you start at the beginning you always feel like you’re playing catch up. And that as events in your subject’s life keep happening you’ll never catch up to them. By starting with NOW and working backwards (whilst still keeping up to date with current events) your project won’t seem so daunting.

LOL – NOW you tell me! I had to learn this lesson the hard way but definitely agree it’s the way to start!
