View Full Version : Weekly Chat - Speed Scraps
Lauren
05-27-2009, 03:15 PM
Back in the good old days of digital scrapbooking we regularly ran speed scraps - these were chats where we were given some inspiration and an hour or 2 to scrap a page - no rules - no regulations - you could use what you liked - you could be as adventurous or as simplistic as you liked - you just were guaranteed to get a layout done .............
Some times we chatted AND scrapped at the same time - that was a challenge but it was even MORE fun -
I hanker for those good old days and so Im starting up a weekly Speed Scrap challenge
9pm Tuesdays in the Chat room is now speed scrap time. - Join me and hopefully lots of friends in the chat room for some fun and some inspiration and end up with a layout done in an hour or 2 .
Calendar entry for this event is here - http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/forum/calendar.php?do=getinfo&e=1434&day=2009-6-10&c=1
and we have our own new gallery (http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showgallery.php?cat=7192).
I will post the inspiration here in the forum and in the gallery each week just before the chat .
Hope to see you Tuesdays

Now this sounds like a challenge I should really get into as the the words speed and scrap just don't happen for me but I may just have to give this one a go, who knows I may even end up surprising myself and complete a fabulous LO in an hour :)

I could certainly do with some speed scrapping. Sounds like it would be a great fit with the journalling ideas that are floating around at the moment too. If you already have the journalling (kid quote or something you just jotted down), the page is almost made!

I'm with Erica - for me speed scrap is an oxymoron. :) I'll give it a go. I never made any of the old speed scraps so it will be a new experience.
So that will be 1pm Wednesdays in NZ right?

I remember those good old days! In fact, I think I got inspired and scrapped and posted my first layout during a speed scrap! Everyone was so helpful and supportive! I will certainly try to be here for this!!

Chatting, scrapping and speed all together is a combination totally foreign to me, but Ill cheer you on from the sidelines if you like:D

Grrr. Best-laid plans messed up by husband. I am stuck at work, where I can chat, but I can't scrap. If I'm still here when it starts. I'll at least join in on the gossip. I'll do the layout when I get home to my other laptop, but maybe not in the timeframe.

Thanks for running these Lauren, I think it's been the highlight of my week. I'm surprised at how much I'm enjoying them and how pleased I am with the end result. Do you think there's a lesson about "overthinking" layouts to be learnt.

I've been wanting to join in with this the past couple of weeks but am usually at work at the time of the chat, and I know I will need to be there and do it then to really try to stay within the time limit! Speed and scrapping are not words normally seen together in my life, and I really want to challenge myself to stop the overthinking as Julia said, and see what happens. After next week I will be home on a Wed so will mark it on my calender and see you there.
Erica
06-11-2009, 05:12 PM
yay Pam, I arrived late the first week, darn time zones :) but I really have to push myself too, like you I'm a bit of a snail when it comes to Lo's. Look forward to seeing you next week.

Sometimes, when I am inspired I can do a LO in 10-20 minutes.. othertimes it takes me hours and hours. Speed Scraps was so intense for me! Fun to see what people came up with, btu I think it caused me so much stress and worry. I thought I was doing something wrong.
I am hoping to try it again this week and see if I can do better, and calmer LOL
Lauren
06-14-2009, 04:43 PM
By the way if anyone sees any great inspiration out there and wants to submit it to be used in speedscraps then please send me a pm with the link and I will be happy to add it to the list of inspiration to be used in future weeks

I hope I'm home in time - I'm taking ds to the orthodontist to have his braces fitted today. Poor kid. This challenge seems to be the only time I make myself sit down and just scrap without distractions.

I'm trying really hard to remember this week
I reallllllyyyy did and believe me ... I felt sulky the whole hour because I couldn't be here playing with you all!! I had some things I had to take care of for my family here and they wouldn't have been happy with me if I disappeared for that hour.
It was that old feeling... everyone is playing and I can't get out to play yet... sigh!!!
I missed you all ... have to look at the gallery, though... I heard rumors that the team is quite impressed with what is being cranked out in less than an hour!!! :)

Also, Lauren, I LOVE tonight's inspiration. I think I may use it as a base format for a mini scrapbook. It's so simple but versatile. Thankvyou for hosting this and finding these great inspirations!

I said I'd come back and do it and I didn't cheat at all. I haven't even looked at the gallery. Mine is doing double duty for Nicole's challenge at the moment. Here's what I came up with, it meandered away from the inspiration but that's where it started.

I feel so sad that this has ended. I've missed the last few because of a family situation. My father had a stroke on November 23, went to Hospice on the 24th (so I couldn't make that chat), and passed on the 26th. I've been so busy with all of the plans and preparations that I can hardly even think of scrapping. In fact, my "new posts" click showed more than 5 pages of unread posts. I'm having surgery next week, so I will be unable to do much but play on the 'puter for a while.
Thanks, Lauren, for this great chat. I had a blast each week!

Speed scrap was interesting. It was the first one I have done (new here) and it was different! Hard for people to scrap and chat though. I must say I was WAY out of my league with the ladies in on this one! Their layouts were AMAZING and mine was pathetic! BUT, I did learn alot. It was the first time I had used my newly organized scrapbooking catalog and it was so easy to use, I learned not to do this when I am tired (my husband got a kick out of that one!), I learned to take some time to really look at the design element of the inspiration layout, and finally figure out the upload process first so the pictures are not fuzzy! I have a lot to learn but like I tell my grand babies you can't be a professional the first time out, be persistant and try your best. And the best thing is I got a page done!!! Yay for me! Thank you for all the lessons, if I am brave enough I will be back next week! And thank you for the nice comments, you were very polite! I am off to revamp my layout a bit!

Clipper you did a great job, SpeedScrapping is definitely a huge learning curve so to get as far as you did was great to see!
The inspiration is just that, inspiration. You should take a look at it, and let it inspire you to make a page. It doesnt have to be the design that inspires, it could be the theme, the colours, a word, anything!
I actually really liked that you were able to take the music idea and turn it into a LO as it gave you quite a different styled LO than most of the others and makes you stand out in the gallery, which is great!!!!

I missed it! Out to dinner with friends, and got home right before it started. Then my husband called, and we talked for a while. I will be there next week, though. (and I might give myself an hour to do the speed scrap on my own.)

This was an experience. Do not cut off the monkeys ear...it slows you down.:o I had fun though, & at this moment I don't think I would change much.;)
Can I suggest adding the links to the gallery & the forum on the calander announcement? Please- I can get lost on DSP as well as the roads apparently.:lol: Is there a GPS for DSP?
Please check & make sure I put my page in the correct place. Thank You. (I hope this is in the right place)

Oh, I love the inspiration! But I wouldn't have been able to do even one extraction in that much time. But it has given me an idea for a LO that will take me a lot of time - and I just HAVE to do it. My son at the bottom and I'll take photos of all of his favorite toys for the top! Love it!!! And . . . never done an extraction, so lots of practice.

Is there anything to get ready or anything to start thinking about for the speed scrap tonight? Do you give out hints ahead of time, or tell us the theme so we can choose a pic?
Heidi
06-01-2010, 04:00 PM
Nope, nothing to get ready for really. I will post the inspiration piece shortly before or right at 8 pm (I still have to pick something). No theme - just be inspired anyway you want!!!
Limequilla
06-01-2010, 07:10 PM
Okay. I am not good at speed scraps, and I wanted to get asmuch of a head start as I could :)
Does the inspiration piece get posted in this thread, or is there another place?

Is it me that's having issues or DSP? First I couldn't load the site at all now I'm having trouble loading the chatroom. :(
Can't get to the gallery either.

I feel like I was lucky to see this post, so it's site-wide, not just the chat room. :(
I've been trying to get to chat or gallery too... only thing loading is the forum and it's being picky too
Clipper
07-06-2010, 08:57 PM
Gave up! I tried and tried to get just the site to come up and when it did the chat wasn't working so I am giving up. Maybe next week?
sammawow
07-06-2010, 09:01 PM
I can't get in either... I'll keep looking!
I hope to see you all next week!! Same time, Same usual place!!! Bring your pics and prepare to get a layout done! :)

No it's not you. I had issues with the chat earlier. Like Kim said, it's being worked on. Back to the Twilight Saga... movies are quite different after one has read the books.. :think:
late as usual :D
