Keeping track of page ideas?

I have a four subject mini notebook from the Dollar Tree. I have each subject labeled with a different album name. Every time I think of a layout that belongs in that album, I jot down notes for it in the appropriate section, on a fresh page.

I have a notebook that I write things in - journalling, titles, sketches of layouts and even a couple of photos are stored in a little pocket at the front. I also have a folder on my computer with page ideas, whether they be photos of layouts or sketches or journalling or song lyrics. And then from my earlier days of scrapping, I have two binders full of layouts or technique ideas that I tore out of magazines. The binders I tend to use less often - mostly because of Pinterest and Youtube - but every now and again when I am completely stuck for an idea, I do pull them out for inspiration. But I am tempted to toss those binders one day so if I use an idea from the binder, I toss that page in the trash when I'm done. Too many ideas with far too little time to get to most of them!

this Pinterest pin is one I just found-- I need to start making a list myself, because I don't scrap chronologically and I need to know what stories / layouts I still want to make. I might make a couple changes to the spreadsheet, but the idea is a good one. I have a notebook I keep in my purse, but don't really use it for anything specific yet.

i scrap chronologically so I have an ongoing list taped on the wall next to my computer. Once it is completed, it gets scratched off the list.

I use the notes app on my iPad. I'm usually using my iPad when I see ideas online. I like the app because all my notes also show up automatically on my iPhone and Mac computer simultaneously. It's really convenient.

I abandoned actual notebooks a while ago bcz it just wasn't practical for me. I use apps and Google Drive. For more thoughtful journaling I use the Day One app. I use Evernote to keep ideas organized and sometimes add journaling there too. I try to tag notes with keywords. So far this has been working well. The Day One app you can pdf and email to yourself periodically to keep it backed up too.

I do pin layout inspiration on Pinterest or color combos, etc.

I've been scrapping a long time, so I kind of just know how I want to keep track of certain events or stories or photos. It def took me years to just sort of go with the flow and not obsess over doing it all! Good luck.
