Do you scrap or stamp?

So to answer this weeks question I would have to say I scrap. While I do dabble in stamping every now and then. I think my cards are mostly scrapping...I know scrapping usually applies to scrap booking though. I do very little of my own scrap booking...not because I don't want to, but because I don't know where to start.

A few years ago I became the official 'keeper of all family photos'. My mother brought over six or seven huge crates full of family photos just piled high in old worn albums. It took me almost the entire 9 months of my pregnancy to sort through them and try to separate duplicates and put them in any sort of order. It was great to have all these photos of my great-grandmother, my grandmother, all the cousin...even pets from the 50's....

So when I say I don't know where to start I guess I mean that to start scrapping all those photos (and I am the kind of person who, once started would have to use ALL of them) seems like an unending job...maybe when Sampson starts school...

I do plan on doing some pre-made scrapbook pages for others though! I am working on one right now to unveil...soon I hope.

I forget who it was the other day who said they always started out with a clean workspace...and end up with a mess...well me too!

Here is what I start with:

and here is how it ends:

...no matter how tidy I try to be!!!

It is still blazing hot here in San Diego. I am melting away. I have to go to Joanns to get craft supplies, but the very idea of climbing into the hot car makes me sweat. We may not have air conditioning, but it's still cooler inside!
