I scrap at least once a week, many times more. I am lucky enough to be able to keep my stuff out, so I can dabble a little hear and there and manage to get things done!

I would love to say every day -- but in reality once a week for a couple of hours -- the desire is there - just not the time. I need to work it into my schedule more because it always gives me such a great feeling of accomlishment and joy.

currently, I can manage to get in a little bit each day ... but that also includes editing, organizing, ordering, pictures. I have been on a creative kick lately and I managed to complete about 6 pages this past week. This is not typical. I average about a page every other week or so. Thanks for the great giveaway!

I typically do something creative at least once a week. Whether its a card or a scrapbook page or even just some journaling on my blog. Lately though I have mostly just been looking for inspiration in magazines, books and websites.

I'm always thinking about something to do with scrapbooking. I try to get into my scrapbooking room every day at least for a little while. It's much easier now that my kids are not little any more.

Lately I have been a "drive-by" scrapper...working on an album that doesn't feel like it's my best effort, so I am intentionally starting to slow it down and leave it as a work in progress. I will look at it, change/add something, leave it and come back by.
Actually is driving me nuts...I have much I feel I want to get done and it seems tedious....but, to me, it is better than putting it away altogether!
Realistic though, I usualy scrap a little several times a week.
Thanks for the aweseome giveaway chance and question. Happy Hump Day!

I have to say that it's been a while since I scrapbooked but am retaking Library of Memories and am feeling very inspired again. I have been working with my pictures several days a week lately and am hoping to actually get a page done very soon!

I scrapbook pretty much every day or two. I may not do a page, but I sort supplies, think of ideas, look for inspiration, etc. It is definitely a part of my every day. Lisa L.

I get to scrabook in between baby's naps...about 1-4 hours a week, depending on the type of week we are having! I am grateful for any time I can spend with my supplies!!

I don't have a certain amount of time that I scrap--just whenever I can find some time. It's been over a week since I've created a layout, but I take photos daily and check out blogs.
Love today's prizes--especially the cats life press stamps! I saw them earlier this week on their website and they are on my wish list.

I try to scrap twice a week - one day during the week and usually Friday night. I always scrap at night after my kids have gone to bed. I forget about housework, tv, and yes, even my husband.

I've been collecting things for my son's scrapbook for 13 months since he was born - so I haven't done it in that long! I scrapbooked weekly up until he was born, but I'm on a long hiatus (but not feeling bad about it) now and starting to think about that baby book...finallY!

In my mind I am scrapping all the time. I try to do at least a little something everyday at my scrap desk.
Have not been able to find a big lot of time much at all lately. I would love to win any of these sweet prizes!

Right now scrapbooking is on the back burner whike I prepare for my wedding I am currently working on wrapping wire around the lip of used jars then another wire from that to make it a jar that can hang on something. Candles will be put in them and they will be used as decorations at my reception. I have been doing this daily. Two weeks ago I finished up making and mailing my invitations. :) Next is trees from the Arbor Day foundation that I will be making tags for! After the wedding I will get back to my weekly scrapping, I usually give a few hours 1 day a week.

I would say twice a month. I am way better at doing it when I plan it with a group of people and have to get out the house to do it!! Otherwise I get distracted or just "don't feel like it". I wish I was motivated enough to work on it a little bit each week!!!

I probably scrap 2-4 times a week, but usually only for 15-30 minutes at a time. (I have a 2 year old!) But if you count the time I'm thinking about pages or ideas for pages, it's a lot more than that!

I try and scrap at least once a month or more. But when I scrap, I SCRAP :) Normally it's during a monthly crop that lasts two days, so I get a lot done in one weekend!

I consider myself a "wanna be" scrapbooker since I really don't scrapbook that much!!!! I would LOVE to do more but I find it very difficult to balance being a SAHM with finding "me" time! So, I'm taking lots of photos and taking as many notes as I can with the hope that in a year or so when both my children are in school I'll be ready to get down to business!!!!!!!

Some months I scrap every day right now I am scrapping every day or so. It just depends on how inspired I am when I have the time!!

I scrapbook sporadically at home, but go to weekend crops about 3 to 4 times per year. I dream of scrapbooking much more. Reading the magazines, surfing the sites (while at work soemtimes.... shhhhh). Normally, though, life is just too busy and I am just too tired at the end of the day to scrapbook. But I print my photos and I scribble the journaling to go with the pictures. So when I do get away for a weekend, I have plenty to work on.

I usually have devoted time to scrapping once a week with a few minutes here or there when I get an idea and the kids are occupied in a safe manner.

Well, when I am in a groove like I am now I end up sitting at my scrap table every time I walk by it. Sometimes I'll go upstairs to grab something out of my room like a sweatshirt and I'll be AWOL for half an hour! My husband is so great--he knows what paper and glue do to me. I usually "chunk" scrapbook--go crazy making pages for a month and then not touch it for a month. That's when I move on to another hobby like knitting, jewlery making or nature photography.

My scrapping time really varies. Sometimes I have a week where I manage an hour or two each evening after the kids are in bed. The next week, I might manage 15 minutes during the day three times that week. I can often get a bit done on the weekend - I'll leave a project out and get to it here and there throughout the day. It really depends on whatelse is going on in my life that week. Also, it depends on what I'm working on - I just finished a big project, and worked madly on it every evening and where I could during the day for 10 days straight. If I don't have anything big I'm working on, just regular pages, I could go a week or two without doing anything.

I make a point to getting together with some scrapbooking girlfriends once a month for a whole day of scrapping and some girl talk. And lately, I have been trying to scrapbook daily as I am working on the big project; organizing so I can enjoy more time actually scrapbooking! : )
Thanks for the chance to win some great stuff!

My 2 friends and I have a standing scrapbooking date every Monday. We found that if you pencil it in on a calendar as if it's a "real" appointment, you're more likely to keep the date. It works!
