How do you decide what you will work on next?

My only scrapbooking projects are our ongoing family album(s), the boys school albums and Christmas which is ongoing in it's own album. I'm very much a chronological scrapbooker. So if I'm scrapping at home I'll usually work on our family photos. I save the school albums for the rare weekend retreat.

Do you have any paper collections that you are particularly excited to use? Sometimes that inspires me.

I will be in a similar situation as soon as I finish DD's high school album. My first choice will be to go back and fill in some missing years from older albums, just so they are complete, then go onto new albums.

If I were you I would finish your cruise album and check that one off the list, then maybe start on the England trip. I am thinking about scrapping my '07 trip to Ireland while I am off from school this summer.

I jump to whatever I feel like working on next, honestly. It is easier for me maybe because I don't have any kids and am a homebody, so if I scrapped every picture it would get super repetitive!

I would work on the wedding album, because that would be more important to me. But if your new heritage pics aren't labeled or have journaling, that might be a priority, too. But I would also love to do some pics of England!  Well I'm a lot of help...aren't I? You are really fortunate to have so many great choices.

I'd probably work on something that wasn't already scrapped (even if you don't particularly like the pages).

I think it's a good idea to scrap vacations before you forg t what you did, then I scrap chrono.  I'm currently 2 years behind.  I don't go backwards and redo.

I would do whatever you are most excited about working on. If you are going to buy new supplies for any of these projects maybe you could browse and see if the supplies you find make you more inclined to do one over the other. I probably would not re-do anything but, concentrate on un-scrapped subjects. Have fun!

My vote would be for whatever stories you feel are the most important to be preserved. What stories will your kids/grandkids be most likely to be fascinated by? For me and my family that would probably be my wedding pictures (which have never been scrapped), vacation pics for vacations that we've gone on with DD and any heritage photos that I know the stories behind because I think those would be the things that she will be most interested in reading about years down the road.

I'm another person that goes all over the place. I work on whatever I'm currently most interested in / feeling inspired by.

I look through my pictures and work on whatever I feel like, usually something for which I have ideas & papers in mind.

Just in looking at your list: First, if I was 60, I would not be re-doing anything. I have way to much going on to get bogged down in fixing up scrapbooks from the past. (I say that as a 54 yo. LOL So, not far off). I'm not a re-doer by nature anyway. I like the stages my scrapbooks have seen. For instance, if I were unhappy with a wedding album, I might just do a wedding project, not a total redo. Something that shows of your current style, but does not undo who you were when you made your first album. Another alternative based on your list, is an "all about me" album where you can work on whatever you feel like or have supplies for instead of feeling the weight of a project looming over you. If you like to complete projects, then I'd finish the cruise album first before starting a new subject.

My main decision maker is "what story do I want to tell today?" "Start where I want to" doesn't work for me because I want to do it all! LOL I want all the pictures printed and all the supplies and all the ideas all at my finger tips. LOL Well, that doesn't ever happen for me. So, I keep a list of my ongoing albums/projects posted in my room. I pretty much work where the muse, the supplies I have and the time I have take me. I have recently completed some larger projects and now I am putting aside my time for heritage albums and my own albums. I have started organizing the photos and hunting for information that I need to tell the stories I want to tell. From there, I'll work on whatever catches my whimsy when I sit down to scrap.
