Comment by Karen L-Ch{all}enge Master on October 20, 2009 at 10:04pm: I started working on my BOM a couple of years ago but find that I don't add pages unless it is a challenge somewhere. Many times it seems difficult to work on this subject because I think that I need a photo of myself. I know that it isn't true. Does anyone else have a hard time getting started on a page?

Comment by Misty M. - Design Master on October 21, 2009 at 12:46pm: I usually do my pages through challenges. In fact, that is how I started mine. Remember you don't have to use photos on all of your pages. A lot of times it is getting down your memories of your past or your thoughts about yourself.

Comment by elizabeth rosemond-design master on October 21, 2009 at 1:24pm: I agree with Misty. i really don't think a photo is 100% necessary either. Also, I have absolutely no problem using a photo of myself more than once if I need to :)

Comment by Robin Lachnit -Design Master on October 21, 2009 at 3:05pm: I rarely work in my book of me, the right photo, the right story, the right paper, it all has to come together well for me to take on a page about myself.

Comment by LisaT. ~ Design Master on October 26, 2009 at 6:40pm: I have a BOM filled up, guess I need a new album. And I totally agree that the layouts don't have to include photos.

Comment by July Gaceta on November 11, 2009 at 5:25am: Well, this sounds fun. this is my 11th group. Wow.

I've done few layouts for me. Its one reason why i dabble to traditional scrapbooking. I planned to make a fabric album just for me. I'm happy to join this group. I'm excited already.

Comment by Carol Pinkey on November 14, 2009 at 5:55am: I have thought about doing a book of me... it may be something my children and grandchildren would like to "read" many years from now.

Comment by Misty M. - Design Master on November 14, 2009 at 7:58pm: July & Carol - Welcome to the group! July - Your layout was gorgeous! Carol -We hope you'll play along with us!

Comment by Carol Pinkey on November 15, 2009 at 9:03am: I am going to try to participate this month - with the holidays and 18 out of town guests at T'giving, I am starting to feel overwhelmed! :o) Maybe I will lock myself in my craft room!

Comment by Misty M. - Design Master on November 15, 2009 at 9:37am: I completely understand Carol! You might need to lock yourself up while you have the 18 guests at your house!! If you can't play along this month, check back Dec 6 for our next challenge.
