RAK

i would love to scrap when i have time... that seems to be something I lack... I am trying to get my area set up, cleaned up and ready to handle all the scrapping by me and my girls... i put the 52 inch flat down there so i can sit and watch movies.. just have to hook up the bose speakers and i may never come upstairs again - lol!

by the way, i love the idea of your RAK - i so need to send out some new years goodies... i have a few months left and then if it's not this year, it will be a new year!!! lol how's that for planned procrastinating?!

as i look thru the pile of the RAK goodies....my mind wonders, will this trend of random RAKy ness spread & flow like water to get another person to spread the love of sharing craft goodies ?
how do you plan your RAKs ? do you just random send to someone in the hopes of ? what ?
what is the last thing you RAK'd ? now off topic, do you collect anything ?

Usually I RAK someone involved in a challenge. I used to just random rak but haven't gotten back into that routine. I just look around or buy something with the thought of RAKing it.

Same as Colleen!!!

Ditto Colleen and Helen!

have you ever scrapped a bad experience ? a fear ? fave food ?

I did a scrapbook after my brother died, it was hard but it almost was very healing.

I have.. I did one about my ds... "What Makes me Angry..." It was hard, but it helped!
I ahould do another one soon.

I scrapped about my Mother after she died, it was hard but very good.

I did one shortly after my aunt passed away. We had a family story about naming my sister. At lunch after my aunt's funeral, I learned that she had a hand in that story - I just hadn't known about it. Her death had hit me harder than I expected and it was good to do the layout.

Yes... my Mother too like Jackie.

few more days til my SOS anniversary & any last minute tips ,ideas or things you would like to see in the RAK ? what things do u NOT like ? anything u don't need ? will u play it forward & set up a new RAK for someone to win to keep it rolling ?
what is the smallest size LO you have done ? have you made a mini album for a present or yourself ? any tips ? i have a uncomplete 8x8 album i wanted to do for my mom 2 years ago, but ran out of ideas & just have no mojo to complete it...any tips ?

The smallest album I have done is 2 X 2 inches!!!! It was an abc for my ds.

I don't to any albums but 12 x 12 and my recipe book.

I have done alot of PBA's, 6 x6. Did the little mini that Lois sent us, it was 3 x 3 I think.

Never scrapped any fear or fave food. I only scrap 12 x 12 and my daughter's recipe book is also 12 x 12. Only recently started to do cards.

do you buy your paper in packs, individually or just whatever suits if the price is right ?

I buy the pads if the paper is nice, I buy packs if it is paper I will use, and I buy individual sheets, just depends on what I like and what the price is like.

I just buy paper... any paper if I like it!!! I love making mini albums so like the single sided papers for those.

I've never scrapped a fear or a food. I did do a chocolate bunny page of my kids eating their Easter bunnies but that's about it.

I've done a small 4x4 album of each of my kids.

I just buy whatever paper suits me. I usually don't buy packs because they're on the expensive side & I'm cheap

I buy whatever I like.....but it depends on the price on how much I buy!

where do you scrap ? do you go to regular crops ? what was the last layout you scrapped?

I scrapped one today, but I can't show you yet!!!
I scrap in my scrappy room!!!

anything scrappy you don't like ? i don't know why, but i just don't get fibers....

DOn't think there is a thing I dislike.
