the ONE thing I struggle to scrap the MOST is______________________________

myself.

I always think I look terrible in photos so I never want to use them on pages.  I have a bunch of layouts about me & my hubby, but not many that are just about me. 

My dad. He doesn't like his picture taken, and when he does have it taken, he doesn't smile.

I don't usually have photos of me..... and I have trouble making TITLES so lots of my layouts do not have one......

guess I'm gonna go with the others and say "me" since i'm the photographer and don't get many pics of me that I like. Just yesterday playing in the snow outside, I gave hubs the camera and told him to take some pics of me with the kids. the ONE picture where I'm looking at the camera, I look like a goofball with half my head in and half out of my hoodie, making a weird face. The other 3 pics are all shots of my backside  

Otherwise, I for some reason have a hard time scrapping specific holidays. I tend to shy away sometimes from them. Other times I get in the groove and crank out several. I have some pics of Easter from last year that I'm still looking at (but I have some great Easter kit stuff from ECho Park on its way!!) and Christmas, well, I have tons of pics from past years I need to print out still! lol. I think there's SO many pics at Christmastime that I don't want to leave any of them out, I think ALL of them are great, and so that means a LOT Of pics and I don't know where to start! Good thing there's a Christmas challenge for that  

I will say me too and for that very reason, I am pushing myself to include me in more of my layouts.  In fact I started working on the Becky Fleck sketch and it will have two photos of ME!!  Sorry for those who closely follow the gallery!!  LOL!!!

LOs about DH and I. I don't know why that is. It feels strange when I try to make them......very little embellishing and usually no journaling. Perhaps it feels like I'm putting "us" in the spotlight and I don't want it to come across as selfish or being a show off.

Holidays.

Me.  I don't do me very well.  Just not comfortable with the topic as a topic.  I would much rather scrap my kids/grandkids.

B I B I  !!!! 

ok with that said..lol

the one that is hardest for me is holidays........never any neat pics usually...always from the same perspective every year....etc.....

Holidays. I don't feel like they are very creative or unique, and I'd much rather scrap everyday events. And I'm glad it's FILL in the blank, and no one is ILL! lol

Birthdays!  I always take too many photos with too many people in them and then they just look all a-jumble when I try to scrap them.  Plus, most of the birthday kits out there are so kiddish. 

Myself.  I don't like the way I look in most photos, so I avoid pictures and scrapping myself...

Easter.  I try and do theme (at the very least, themed colors) and I'm really not drawn to soft, pastel colors.

myself - I just don't do it.  

Holidays and Birthdays!! I really can't seem to get "into" them...although I have a ton of paper for all of them.
I am trying to get better at it as the whole reason for my books is so Cole remembers his life.
fLoving the "ill" in the blanks!!
