I'm definitely in the middle. I rarely use foam tape or pop dots and when I do it's super flat. I like the look but I want to squeeze a lot of layouts in my albums and I don't like how the opposite pages get damaged.

mostly flat for me - Thickers or Jolees or mini-brads are about as dimensional as I get

I almost always have something popped up on my page.

I add a bit of dimension in my embellishment clusters but that's about it.

I like a little dimension but nothing thicker than brads, craft foam, twine, or chipboard.

Dimension for sure. If there's no dimension, my pages feel unfinished.

my layouts / project life spreads have a little dimension - mostly chipboard accents or enamel dots, sometimes acrylic words or veneer my cards usually have foam tape and pieces lifted

I was going to say flat but then I reconsidered. I’m all about wood veneer these days. I also like metal gears and keys. I use Thickers and some chipboard. I don’t like the bulky Prima flowers and I don’t pop things up or use foam tape very often.

Flat; an occasional Thickers title or enamel dot are the most dimension found on my pages! (Note I exclusively scrap 12x12 traditional layouts; no pocket scrapping, a day/week in the life, one little word, December daily, cards, multimedia, home decor, or other projects.)

Most of my pages are somewhat chunky. They always have some kind of dimension

Mostly flat. Minimal dimension on some layouts.

I use some dimension but not a lot. Some pages have none.

I love dimension! I just put away a foot tall stack of layouts into albums & i loved the big bumpy stack of paper and embellishments. I missed it after putting them all away into albums.

My first instinct would be 'flat' but I do use a LOT of layers... it's just that my layers are mostly paper, with a bit of ribbon / baker's twine, etc. added in sometimes.
But I do add a bit of 'real' dimension to my scrapbook pages at the end by using 3-D foam tape to pop up certain elements, adding buttons, enamel dots, etc. My dimension is in very small doses.
I don't use a lot of bumpy things on my cards because I don't want to cause problems with the cards going through the mail by getting crushed / caught on things, or making the recipient have to pay postage due. (which I have seen happen before)

Foam tape,wood veneer and puffy stickers are fine Clothes pegs,tassels,popmpoms are too lumpy I do believe I have said this in the past but I think we are crafty twins!

Note: I will sometimes do a "super lumpy" for me layout and those go into 12X12 frames from Ms and displayed on one of our landings. I switch them out periodically throughout the year. It helps give my chunky side some release LOL! (hmmm may be time to change those out this weekend before we get going again!)

^^^ that sounds like a really good idea! I bought a 12x12 shadowbox frame from a SB store garage sale years ago, and haven't ever done anything with it.

crimsoncat05 I love doing it, the kids (and hubby) enjoy seeing them displayed. I also save a few frames for the kids to display their pages they make. It makes me smile everytime I walk up/down the stairs!

For layouts it depends. I can go flat to chunky.
For cards I prefer flat if they’ll be mailed.
Art journaling all over the place

I like a little dimension but not too much. I don’t want to make my albums too bulky so I always make sure to have a majority of layouts without the bulk.
