I'll admit it, I'm a Pinterest addict! I started pinning about 8 months ago because I am one who likes to jump on a craze. In the beginning, I didn't really understand the appeal or how Pinterest was going to benefit my life in any way. Fast forward to now and I don't know how I ever lived without it! I pin all sorts of stuff, from gift and craft ideas to home decorating and books that interest me. But where Pinterest has really changed my life is in the ares of scrapbooking and cooking! I have gotten way more layout ideas and sketches then I ever had from my scrapbook magazine subscriptions and the recipe ides are practically endless! And I'm not trying to brag, but I actually make the things I pin!
For example:
I was working on a "recipe" scrapbook layout challenge on the amazing web site www.inspiredtoscrap.net. I immediately went to my pinterest board to find a layout design that fit the bill. I came up with a layout that was pinned from the Creative Memories blog (http://blogs.creativememories.ca/2012/04/national-scrapbook-day-challenge-april-29.html) and I was able to adapt it to fit my needs and the supplies I had on hand. I finally created this:
Scraplifting is ok folks!! As long as you give credit where credit is due, you can scraplift those amazing layouts you see on Pinteret - no guilt required!
