Inspiration folder

I have an inspiration folder and I highly recommend one for anyone who does anything even close to this.

It is being housed electronically on my computer, but it would work just as well as a physical folder and, in fact, mine started out that way.

I have several years of magazines I am going through for ideas and other inspiration. What it does is give me LOTS of things I want to do. What it does NOT give me is the added time to do them all. Such is life...

Anywho... I started out just making copies on my all-in-one printer of the pages I liked, but I ended up using WAY too much toner. So, since I am scanning all my old photos (more on that later) I chose to also scan all these pages. The upside is that I can scan them at a much lower resolution than photos, so each one takes a lot less time. The downside is that I need to do hundreds of pages all at once, so it will take a LONG time! I also highly recommend keeping current so you NEVER have to do this!

One of the cool ideas I got from these pages is to make a booklet of all my favorite color combos, so here is the cover of that...
