Do you also find this time of year so difficult to create?
Everyone is busy and when the weathers good you just want to get outside.
But as we are all busy making memories and doing fun stuff, it's tricky to find the time to create.
Lisa here by the way and today I'm sharing some quick tips on how to create quick fun pages when you are struggling to find the time.
I do also have a video here if you want to watch this one come together.
I decided to go with 3 photos that I already had printed (that saves time already, just pick photos that you already have to hand rather than choosing what to go and print off).
I also went with photos that didn't have a mega story to go with them.
Originally when I thought that I was going to grab 15mins at my desk, I took a bunch of photos from our travel day to Orlando, but then quickly realised that I had so many stories to tell, so many photos to work with and then memorabilia to go and find, that would NOT be a quick page.
This one is simple.
My FAVOURITE DISNEY SNACK, and that's it!
And the other tip is to grab for a collection of something.
I took the Simple Stories 'Pack Your Bags' collection here.
When you have something that completely coordinates, it takes out al that procrastination time. No picking and choosing of what to use and what goes with what. It all works.
This saves so much time.
I made the most basic of pockets today, no time for anything fancy during this 15 min journal session LOL
And this 12x12 here helps you create the quickest journal cards.
The bits and pieces are fun to use too.
I even stapled a flag here as a tab top for my journal card.
And then I used them to add some quick fun touches to this spread.
I wasn't that fussed with the images so much as I LOVE the words. This is one of those pieces I wish I'd grabbed 2 pieces. Maybe I need to grab another piece next time I order LOL.
I love using a long ruler to trim these words down to use as a title.
So fun!
I really hope you can squeeze in 15/20mins here and there over the Summer to get your scrappy time in.
Don't forget the video I have here if you'd like to watch this page being created.
Enjoy the rest of your Summer.
Hugs
Lisa xx
