Re: When you do a layout
 I take a ton of pictures so I put a lot of pics one page.  For me, a 12x12 page can be anywhere from 3 to 7 pics (depending on the pics and how I crop them).  On average though, I would say I do 4 pics a page.  Have very few pages with less than that... and those are usually from doing the challenages and contests on ACOT!

Re: When you do a layout
 Well... I have some layouts that I have used just one picture on. If I have a special picture that I want to do a special layout of.. but I also have been know to do a 14 page layout with LOTS of pictures on them. 

I don't see the since in taking  a bunch of pictures and then only scrapping one or two to tell the story of that day or trip. I still cut down on how many pictures I scrap but I don't cut down on how many pages it takes to tell that adventure.

Re: When you do a layout
 I try to mix it up--- I find that I go in stages--- I will have alot with only one and then you look at my next group of layouts and they have tons. If I print my pics 4x6-- i don't usually use more than 3 on a layout because I feel it get crowded--but I love to print them in smaller sizes and use lots.

Re: When you do a layout
 I generally do multi-photo layouts when I do paper.  The photos are already printed and I want to show them.  When I do digi, I often use just one photo, because I don't feel I am wasting supplies/photos, etc.  That is not to say that a 1-photo paper layout is a waste...just that I have so many photos to scrap, my hoarding nature won't let me do pages with one photo, usually.  Unless it is a 5x7 or larger.

Re: When you do a layout
 I tend to go back and forth.  If I have a fantastic random photo, I will just do one or two.  but if it is from an event, then I tend to use more on a page.

 It depends on the subject.  Vacations, holidays, etc are always multiphoto.   But I do love the good random shot being solo.

Re: When you do a layout
 I usually like to do 2 page layouts 12 x 12 and I try to keep it to 4-5 pictures.  I also am the paparazzi around here but thank goodness I am documenting my sons' childhood.  When I  asked my 7  year old about a trip we took to a local theme park 2 years ago he didn't remember.  I have proof when they get older and say "you never take us anywhere.."
Oh yeah! I've got scrapbooks to prove it.

This is alot the way I scrap too! I used to do mostly one photo layouts, but I've gotten back in the habit of using more now.

Re: When you do a layout
 It depends on how powerful the pic is. Some pics dont need to be Upstaged.  I like to use one powerful pic.... and then maybe if I need to use the others put them on a second page that coordinates with the first. similar to a double layout.  If I use the focal pic then I highlight it either by making it a bit bigger, matting it with embellishments and highlight matting.  Sometimes I even do the focal pic in color and the rest in b/w.  I let the pics tell me what they need.

Re: When you do a layout
 I usually do one , two the most. I love to do embellishments and all different bling and stuff thats the fun of it for me. I have no children so its more in the creating the whole layout then showing off pictures for me. Though I do show off my St. Bernard ` Hannah alot. she is my love. lol
