Hmmm.  I'm not much of a blogger.  I'm not much of a writer at all.  I'm good at science and things that follow a pattern, recipe or procedure.  I like to cook and bake with recipes.  I get nervous when a recipe isn't involved.  :o)  At work I have a set way of doing things.  I follow the procedures exactly and get great results.  It's nice to know what you're going to end up with.  If I don't get what I expect, it bugs me and I have to go back over everything until I figure out why.

My scrap book pages tend to follow a pattern and procedure.  My friend Vicki has been helping me to learn not to follow a pattern with scrapbooking.  When I frist started scrapbooking several years ago, my pages looked like a photo album with little captions at the bottom.  Vicki took me by the hand and slowly broke me away from the photo album look.  :o)

I'm still getting used to the idea but my very first digiscrap page was something I thought I'd never do.  It was a single picture on a page.  I used to think that it was a waste to only put one picture on a page.  I guess digiscraping has freed me from the idea that I'm spending to much money on supplies to only display one picture.  :o)  I love the freedom that digiscraping gives me to have a crazy layout or take the same pictures and or things and make a simple layout. 

However, I'm starting on a new bad habit that I think lots of people have in the digi world.  The quest for perfection.  I've remade the same page several times trying to get it just right.  I always seem to see something else that would be so much better than that other thing I did.  :o)

I guess scrapbooking is opening me up to a more creative side.  I still have a procedure for my scrapbook pages, but it's slowly changing to be more creative and less patterned.
