The second part of this article will be having a look at the harder parts of cheap scrapbooking. Its not always going to be fun and success, and is the reason why its crucial to cover this part. Last article covered cheap scrapbooking supplies, so now we're moving on to success and failure.
So brace yourself:
Fear of Failure
The biggest problem facing folks new to cheap scrapbooking is the phobia of failure. Nobody likes to fail, myself included. However , if it was not for failing, I wouldn't be the scrapper I'm today - some of my largest learning experiences came from failure.
To beat this, start out by making an album that you plan to fail. If it turns out anything better than a failure, you're going to be happily surprised!
The toughest part of this information is to accept that occasionally you will fail and it will hurt, but in the end, it all leads to learning the things that do and don't work in the cheap scrapbooking process.
Getting Results
Leading in from failure is getting results. Now there is a good slogan I use when covering cheap scrapbooking which I learned from car dealers, and that is: 'mileage may vary'.
If you give a few people the exact same materials and the same quantity of time to make a scrapbook one is inevitably going to turn out better than the other - its just the way things happen.
While everybody has our good days and bad, the real difference is determined by experience. With all materials being even, the person with more experience with cheap scrapbooking is more likely to turn out a better album more frequently.
Its these experiences that brings results, learning how to do more with less and how creativeness can triumph over a good number of issues.
I know this advice seems like a little bit of a downer, but with every achievement comes trial and error. Even great artists had to go through their own battles to get where they are today - so take heart!
