HI!!!!! So my kids are slightly obsessed with this game "Would you rather...?". It is a fun game. A game of dire crazy choices. I hear at least 2 a day!
So I thought, we should play it here and see how crazy we could get with the scrappy/crafty "would you rathers"
How it works: You pose two choices, and the person replying answers with their choice and why then poses two choices.
I will go first in the first reply.

Would you rather...
go without paper OR go without embellishments?
Why?

Love this!
I would rather keep my paper and go without embellishments. I can always fussy cut something, but what will I put my photos on???
Would you rather...
Scrap with friends at a crop, or stay at home and scrap by yourself? Why?

Scrap with friends at a crop - I tend to be an introvert so it's good for me to be out
Scrap chronologically or random

Post by crystalb on Jan 8, 2019 16:48:22 GMT
Scrap random and eventually I will go back and put them in order when I am old and the kids are gone!
Would you rather only have glue sticks to adhere things or staples?
|
|
|
Post by Patter on Jan 8, 2019 16:54:06 GMT
Staples because they add texture. Would you use black and white photos or color?
|

Post by Linda on Jan 8, 2019 16:59:42 GMT
colour (although I do love the occasional b/w photo)
digital or paper?
|
|

Post by woodysbetty on Jan 8, 2019 17:05:20 GMT
Absolutely paper, I love the textile feel of paper crafting and how would I ever get thru this stash!!
Inks or paints?

Inks. Paint is too messy. Would you rather spend your $500 scrappy budget all at one time or spread it out over the year? Why?
|
|
|
Post by crystalb on Jan 8, 2019 17:37:35 GMT
I would definitely spread it out. I would do like 5 $100 shopping sprees! FUN!
Would you rather only use scissors or a ruler and a cutting knife for ALL your cutting?

Gonna take the ruler/knife, because that way I can cut straight mattes, but still fussy cut my flowers!
Would you rather: have a big window for light (but be subject to clouds, night etc), or really good lighting in your room?
|
|
|
Post by crystalb on Jan 8, 2019 18:43:40 GMT
Really good lighting, it would be what I have now since I am in the basement.
Would you rather only have alphabet stickers or alphabet stamps to do titles with for all of the future?

I would rather have alphabet stickers for titles. I don't like stamping too much.
Would you rather journal by hand or by computer/typewriter?
|
|
|
Post by Linda on Jan 8, 2019 18:49:29 GMT
computer journalling
rub-ons or stickers?
|
|
|
Post by mrssch on Jan 8, 2019 19:08:46 GMT
Stickers. Rub-one can be “hit or miss with application”
Attend a class in person or take an online class?
|
|
|
Post by grammadee on Jan 8, 2019 19:30:00 GMT
In person, please. I don't take many classes, but the ones I have enjoyed the most have been in person where I can try out what is being taught right away, and the benefit is participants usually get to try out new tools &/or products before purchasing them. I have bought WAY too much stuff b/c it looked easy to work with in a video.
If you must use card stock for your backgrounds, do you prefer white/light or black/navy/dark?
|
|
|
Post by kiwikate on Jan 8, 2019 19:44:30 GMT
White card stock all the way. Would you rather shop all online or all at a store?

In person so I can see all the goodness at once! Would you rather journal by hand or with a typewriter / computer? Fun thread crystalb

Handwritten. I like the idea of preserving my handwriting in my albums (so few pictures of me). And the typewriter or computer is just another thing "to-do" before I can call my page complete.
Would you rather... metal dies or electronic cutting
|
|
|
Post by lovinlife on Jan 8, 2019 20:20:27 GMT
Electronic cutting system since I feel like there are more options available.
brads or eyelets
|
|
|
Post by mikklynn on Jan 8, 2019 20:33:25 GMT
I pick brads. I actually use them quite a bit.
Theme scrapper or neutral?
|
|
|
Post by 950nancy on Jan 8, 2019 20:35:15 GMT
Theme scrapper for sure. I do both, but love my vacation albums.
Would you rather scrap with your pet in the room or a SO?

Pet. She died a while back but she used to hang with me. DH -- just no. He's pesty. ha!
Would you rather use cardstock or patterned paper for a background?
|
|
|
Post by grammadee on Jan 8, 2019 20:53:06 GMT
Card stock or very heavy pp. I tend to pile a bunch of stuff on a page so it needs support.
Would you rather use tape runner or liquid glue?

Post by kitbop on Jan 8, 2019 20:58:20 GMT
If you are only letting me have one, I'll take the tape runner I guess... I don't want to adhere mattes and photos with liquid, it's messy and I have no flexibility to correct mistakes!
splatters: pre-made spritz from a bottle, or watered down ink/paint?

Pre made spritz from a bottle. It’s easier than messing with paints.
Pocket pages or regular layouts

Since I can only pick one..... many photos. It would take up too much space and money if I had to do all my pictures one photo at a time.
Would you rather that your dream craft/scraproom have a view of the sea, or a view of the mountains/greenery?
|
|
|
Post by jloubier on Jan 9, 2019 0:56:11 GMT
Moutains/Greenery because you can see the changing of the seasons.
Music/Podcasts or silence when you're scrapping?

Music/podcasts of those choices (although I usually have the tv on).
Early bird or night owl scrapper?
