One or both side scrapping

Mar '05

I also put 2 sheets of paper into one protector pocket.

Mar '05

Me too. I have them back to back so when the page is turned... you see the next layout. ????? Does that sound right? LOL

Mar '05

Me too ... that is ... I put two pieces of paper in the same pocket, but I assume Dawn means that she uses the front and back of the same piece of paper/card, so it's only one piece of paper per pocket. Am I right Dawn? One of my friends does this. I would find it too difficult as I change paper colour and design too frequently!

Mar '05

I use only the one side of my paper (the textured side of my Bazzill

) but I put two pages into one page protector!

I would never be able to use the backside of a lo-----they look hideous! I sew on a lot of lo's so there is always that, and I end up piecing paper together with tape sometimes, when i run stuff through my printer! LOL!!! You know how some people judge like needlepoint by looking at the *back* ?? I am *so* glad that isn't the case for lo's!!!

I put 2 pages into each page protector. When I first started SBing I use to scrap right on the page protector inserts using both sides of it. Now I scrap on cardstock or PP and slide the 2 pages in together.

I used to to this. If fact I don't think it occured to me NOT to scrap this way until I got on this website. I'm a chronilogical scrapper, so it worked out ok until I realized I mixed up 2 big events and scrapped them in the wrong order. I couldn't change them around because of the way I had used both pages. I had to tear up the pages and start al over. Needless to say, I don't do that anymore!

Most of the time it is both sides. There are a few occasions where I do only one page lo.

Mar '05

I never even thought of using the backside for a LO.

Mar '05

Princess_Belle that is exactly what I mean.

Sometimes I make the back of the cs different by adding a whole sheet of pp on top of it. And sometimes I leave it the same color for both my front and back LO. All depends on the pic's.

I'm real glad that I'm not the only person who does both front and back scrapping. I was beginning to think I did. Thanks everyone for responsing to this.

I hadn't thought of it either...

Mar '05

I scrap on one side of the paper. I love eyelets and snaps etc. Plus I use goodies that are heavier and wouldn't be able to hold up scrapping on both sides of one paper.

Mar '05

I use one piece of paper per LO (2 pages in a protector).

I do NOT scrap chronological, and I use brads, eyelets, sewing, etc., so using both sides of one paper would not work for me.

Mar '05

i scrap chronological but i've never thought to use the back. guess it would save some money if you didnt have any embellishments poking through from the other side. i rarely leave an entire page whole though. i rip and tear and slice and dice to make an unique page.

Mar '05

I use two cardstock in one sheet protector. I like switching colors too much plus I use emblishments that sometimes go onto the backside of the cardstock, or I test on the back of cardstock like stamping to see how the color looks together, does that make sense?

Mar '05

I only use one side of the paper. I like to be able to mix-it-up and what not. My problem is when I scrap I randomly scrap I don't do it in order so I can't use the back unless I really plan; and who has the time to do that

I don't do it in order either. I scrap the event I am in the mood for.

Mar '05

I don't scrap chronologically either... both sides wouldn't work for me!

Mar '05

If I am doing a big event.... like my daughters birthday or a big reunion, I will actually scrap on both sides of the cardstock! I'm a freak about having a thick book or 100 books by the time I am 50, so I try to minimize.

I only scrap on one side of the paper. I use a lot of brads and sewing so it wouldn't work for me either. But I do put 2 pages in one protector.

I do both, but usually only scrap one side.

Mar '05

I only scrap one side... usually because my paper has nothing on the other side or cause of eyelets or brads on my LO.

Mar '05

I usually scrap both sides. I don't use a lot of embellishments so I find it just as easy to use both sides.

That's a good idea that I'm going to have to remember. It would save money and space to scrap a multi-page event on front and back.

To date I've only used one side of each paper/cs, but I'd consider both sides now.

Mar '05

No, I can't scrap on both sides of the paper for a couple of reasons: 1) I don't scrap chronological (it stresses me way too much) LOL and 2) brads and conchos are my FAVORITE embellishment and since they poke through the other side, you really can't use it!

Mar '05

I too don't use very many embellishments. And if I use ribbon I just tuck it in between the cs and pp. Thanks everyone for responsing to this. You all are so sweet.

Please be sure to look at my daughter's gallery under spiritscrapper. She is only 8 years old. For those of you who wouldn't mind could you just pen a small comment to her stuff. Not everyone has too. I would really aprreciate it. Thanks a million.
