Once a while I want to scrap but I can't. I have been on Pinterest, looked through magazines, looked at sketches and I am stuck.
So I thought I'd turn to you guys.
I need five prompts from you. I'll use the first 5 who answer this thread and create a layout using them!

What about using the CHA prompts for the challenges going on right now? They're a lot of fun, AND you could win by uploading them!

Something with circles - either a large circle framing your pics or smaller ones like bubbles.

Pull out that paper or sticker or ribbon or whatever that makes you smile every time you see it and USE IT.

Make your own pattern paper using your stamps. It could be a tag, border, mat paper or a 12x12 piece of paper.

I usually find it easiest to start with pictures. It sounds like you are overwhelmed by these, so I would take the most recent ones, and scrap them. If the prompts already listed haven't sparked your creativity (as there are 10 CHA challenges and 15 on the 2013 Garden Girl videos), pick a color that matches or contrasts with your photo, and find a sketch online that matches the number and orientation of your photos. Or, if you want to be more random, I'm working on some photos I took on Dec. 21, 2012 so you follow my lead and scrap any you took on or shortly before that day.

I have a pretty good-sized stash, but knowing the colors, and where I want to put photos and embellishments helps me whittle things down.
