Thank you so much for this inspirational article. I, too, go through magazines with a pen in hand. For years, I would tear out the pages, put them in a pile and then lose them in my piles of stuff. I plan on making a notebook like you've shown.

What do you do with the bonus sketches that you find at the back of the CK magazines? Do you also clip these and include in your binder with the actual layout or do you incorporate into the appropriate sections in your binder?<br /><br />Can't wait for your next scrapbook organization post!Vickinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8864666002840991252.post-28511345902794372512012-10-10T16:12:55.443-05:002012-10-10T16:12:55.443-05:00That IS a good idea!That IS a good idea!Lishttp://alifewelldone.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8864666002840991252.post-77963011353614944252012-10-09T17:04:32.666-05:002012-10-09T17:04:32.666-05:00How funny!

I was sitting in my craft room working on scrapbook projects for an upcoming reatreat, feeling really overwhelmed with the massive amount of magazine I've accumlated over the years. I became discouraged flipping through them looking for ideas and walked away. Later in the day I read this post!! I've been to Target, bought my supplies and have set up my binder! I've even gone through a couple of magazines clipped what I wanted and filed them!! It will take time, but it will be time worth spending!! Thank you so much for this great idea! BTW, I also loved your project organization and have started my bags for that! I'm looking forward to seeing what the rest of your binders contain!!Cathy H.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10779935742253650385noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8864666002840991252.post-45987560893876173442012-10-05T09:30:21.301-05:002012-10-05T09:30:21.301-05:00Great post Sarah!!

I'm not a scrapbooker really, but I do put little cards as place holders in my photoalbums using stickers and other cute embellishments - I call it lazy scrapbooking. I've been struggling with a system for my growing sticker collection and this would be perfect - especially since I already have a spare binder and sheet protectors.

I actually use a similar approach for my recipes (though I use photo albums instead of page protectors, because the photo slots work perfect for recipe cards) and it works great. I use multiple albums and categorize them by type - appetizer, entree, dessert, etc - so I can just grab the one I need. Good luck!<br /><br />:)Sarah:) Sarahnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8864666002840991252.post-88137441324709836532012-10-04T17:02:38.560-05:002012-10-04T17:02:38.560-05:00This is a great idea, a perfect to stay organized ...This is a great idea, a perfect to stay organized with your creative thoughts and ideas!
