1-page, 2-page, 12x12, 8.5 x 11..... you name it, I've scrapped that way.
Sometimes I journal, sometimes I don't.
It really doesn't bother me in the least if the facing pages of my album coordiante or not. In fact most pages don't even make it to my album until days after they are finished.
Acid-free, shmacid free! Yes I care about my photos, but I scrap for ME, if my pages last for future generations great! If not, still great! At least my photos are already better off not languising in shoe boxes.
Yes I have an entire area of my home dedicated to this hobby, you have a problem with that?
Not only have I used flowers on a page about my husband, I have even scrapped a page about him in PINK!
I ink, I distress, I use sandpaper and metal. I haven't met a grunge I didn't like and I will try just about anything once!
Clean and simple, shabby chic, funky, artsy, grungy, graphic. Bring it on baby! I'm an equal opportunity kinda gal!
No my photos are NOT organised in any way, least of all chronological.
Sometimes I make a sketch, sometimes I wing it. It all depends on my mood.
I can scrap the same photo as many different times as inspiration strikes.
Matting photos takes up way too much of my valuable creative time.
Forget the "rules", I just wanna create!

Love it...and so totally true. I agreee with you. Scrapbooking is supposed to be about you not the industry or what people want to see. You go on sis - create, create.
Did someone pressure you, my dear? You sound a little bit stressed. As though you don't want to do all the things you "should" do (remember what I said about that word?).
