Wondering

Okay, here's what I'm wondering. Everytime I look at some of the digital layouts I did first, I feel deeply embarrassed. They are definitely sub-par. I have gone back and redone two of them. My question to y'all, my faithful friends and fellow bloggers, is this: do they look enough better to justify the time spent on re-doing them? I leave it to you. Let the voting commence! Original.

I know I'm an old stuff, but I like the originals better.

Well, that's a hard question. I have redone some of my pages to make them "flow" more with layouts I did as I got better... but it can be time consuming. I think your layouts are all great! And it's kind of fun to look at how you have progressed over time. Here's what I think, work one pages you haven't done yet and when you get caught up (because I know you have plenty to keep you busy)... if you are still considering redoing pages, then go for it. I don't like feeling like I wasted time before, but at the same time, I want to be happy with what I've done.

Yah, they are way cute! I think every scrapper goes through this whether digital or traditional... to redo or not, cause we're always learning and trends are always changing. I figure, and this is just me, I'm just glad to have them done!! So I take it all as a continuous growth and don't worry!

I haven't ventured into digital scrapbooking (yet) but I like the new versions better on both.

You are getting so good at this stuff! At first glance I didn't think there was much of a difference (non-scrapbooker here--don't know what I'm talking about!), but after looking at them for a moment, your recent ones are super cute! I wouldn't redo all of them, that way down the road you can see your artistic progress.

I know nothing about digiscrapping but I wish I did, it looks like fun, I know a lot of people that do it and apparently it's addicting. Your stuff is really cute, I wish I was that talented.

p.s. I tagged you , you have to check out my blog to see how to play.

Hmmm..the redo's look good, but don't you have so many other pictures to "catch up" on first? I would say once you are completely caught up, then go back. Time is of the essence girlfriend!

If you have the time - go for it but you can have too much of a good thing. You are the one that knows where to draw the line.
I love looking at your blog and it will make a great family history over time.

I totally agree with don't redo them until you have first time done all that you have stockpiled. The redone ones are cute, but the originals show more of where you were at the time of that page...that didnt help at all!
