i think the lovely virginia is totally inspired! (and inspiring ) my scrapbook album of the Divine Mr B is here... take note the wedding album of photos from 20 years ago remains unfinished along with the boys' baby albums... but Gary? He is done and dusted!

Morning all the final three layouts with my counterfeit kit this month, yes I managed 29 layouts from the kit.

In answer to your question Elaine, I am going through an addicted to scrapbooking phase at the moment, I go through phases like this and am loving the ability to use up old papers with these counterfeit kits, I'm using papers that I honestly never thought I would use!

I'm also going to blame Jen from Wear Crafts, since joining her DT I can honestly say that I've been on a continual cycle of creating with scrapbook pages, she's introduced me to paper ranges that I wouldn't have got chance to see otherwise and I adore seeing how much I can squeeze out of each kit. I'm a frugal scrapper and gut most of my pages so I can use the other elements elsewhere.

Topped off with that I've joined a fab group on UKScrappers who are lovely and I love collecting points for them and I'm loving all the different challenges etc that pop up on here as well. Add this creativity with a stressful job and it allows me to find some balance!

As for volume, I've always been a speed scrapper, I can do several layouts in an evening without much of an issue. I have a huge stack of photos, I also scrap in our main family room, this was done intentionally as i realised in the past with various other set ups that family were in one room whilst I was in the other. I made a conscious choice to change that and introduced my scrapping desk and cupboard into the room, so I sit and scrap whilst said 13 year old builds lego, plays or Xbox, watches a DVD or just catches up with TV. Hubby usually sits on sofa watching TV or using his laptop, overall this multi-functioning room really does work for us. I'm planning on changing it again this year to incorporate a bigger space for crafting. The only downside is trying to keep the room so it feels relatively tidy (I'm not the neatest scrapbooker it has to be said).

And finally number of layouts made in 2014 so far total - wait for it 137
