I was that way with Art Journaling for the longest time. One day I just started adding brushwork and blending papers until I was happy with my background and went from there. Same with pocket pages. It all depends on my mood, and where I let it take me.
I tend to be a single photo, white space scrapper and that first heavily clustered page made my heart beat quick but I made it through and have at times clustered even more, and added more photos.
My best advice is to just let go, give it a try, and don't forget to add your personal touch. If you just try to copy a style you won't be happy with your final product, I can easily spot the pages where I have done that. Try a little of this and a little of that but keep your style in there as well, I think you will be pleased with the results.
