 We all have them- TROUBLESPOTS!!!
My troublespot always stumps me in the title dept. sometimes I combine a title...not sure if I like that but I do that. I cant make up my mind most times. My other troublespot is knowing when to WALK Away! and Refrain from using more.  Journaling- mostly cause I have to remember or look up the facts.

 My biggest is journaling,
then 2nd is journaling and,
3rd is journaling!!!

 I am too hasty.  I tend to stick things done without measuring etc. and then I have to deal with the glue issues and torn papers. 

 I have trouble just getting up the energy to pull everything out.  Since I use the kitchen table, I then have to put it away before dinner....

 I suck at journaling & I hate my writing to make it worse!!!!  Most of my scrapbooks have no journaling or writing.

 Journal boxes.   I just do not cute them up

 Trying to figure out how to layer and place items - and the title also.  I do feel that a title doesn't have to be a big deal - some of mine really don't have titles. 

I am trying to use sketches or other peoples' layouts for ideas.  My other problem is trying to keep pictures limited to not more that a few - I tend to want to add too many to the LO!

 Mine is definitely the title.  I can never come up with a cute saying or title to do with the page... Tend to just put the place or event.  Nothing exciting, that's for sure!

 My biggest problem is just sitting down and doing it.  It seems like it's always the last thing on my to-do list when I really should move it up to the top.

 I would have to say getting the journalling actuall on the page... I have a stack of at least a 100 layouts that need the journaling still put on it. I get the layouts done..... but I very rarely hand write my journaling so I always have to wait to put it on until I'm in front of the computer.... so one week (YES a WEEK) I spend journaling on all the layouts that are missing it every few months LOL

    I solved that problem years ago... I just never journal!
 

 Titles - either they come very easily or they don't come at all.

 Definitely titles for sure.  Journaling would be another because I am not that creative with words. And 3rd would be stepping out of my box to do new things.

 My problem is the title too. The journaling, I tried to do my best, I just don't know how to put it in the LO.

 all my LO's look the same!  I think that is why I have not scrapped in so long; I need to start using sketches more

 My biggest is getting started...I can sit and look through the same pictures, paper, embellies and everything over and over and over before an idea pops into my head...then I'm on a roll. But just getting that initial kickstart is my hardest thing.

 Journaling is my biggest problem.  I have tons of LOs waiting for the story to be placed on them.
