I can't scrap backwards

[meems]

for me scrapping backwards means starting with photo and then finding kit/papers/elements. This is NOT working for me, arrrgh. Usually I start with kit or whatever and then find a photo to go with. I'm trying to make my calendar. I am really going to try to finish tonight ha ha ha. I only have like 5 months to go . . . or was it 6 . . . doomed . . . I am doomed.

i'm with justine. actually i am different everytime...LOL!!

[meems]

you start with the photo, Justine?

[SirScrapalot]

Mimi, I totally start with the kit too. Sometimes, I purchase a kit with an event or set of pix in mind, and then pick the right picture to go into my layout.

I do pics last too, I cannot scrap if I try to put pics in first.

you 2 are just freaks. I don't know how you scrap this way

what i meant was that I get the kit first. Then I find photo to use with. BUT I when I actually start to scrap I start with the photo that I had chosen (but kit had been determined first).

With my calendars, I am starting with photo and have to find kit to match. My head is going to explode.

This is exactly what I was thinking. Photos are always my inspiration for a page!

[ditzyscrap]

When I scrap, I choose the kit AND the photo early, then scrap the page and throw the photo on at the end. Usually. Sometimes the photo is on earlier if I'm not sure that it'll "match" my page. Especially if I'm using templates.
