The Mother LOAD
A Scrapbook Marathon

Are you a marathon scrapbooker? Do you want to be? As crazy as it may sound, scrapbookers have a lot in common with runners. Both can run into the same problems – lack of time, isolation, a routine that has become more of a drudgery than a help. The good news? You can easily overcome these obstacles.

No, Lain won’t make you run 26.2 miles in just a few hours – but she will challenge you to scrapbook 26 layouts in 26 days! Through The Mother LOAD - A Scrapbook Marathon, part of the 4Experts series for 2011, Lain will show you how committing to making scrapbooking a priority in your life will help you:

  • Scrapbook faster
  • Love your pages more
  • Actually USE your stash
  • Connect with what you love best about this hobby of ours

The first two months of class will be spent on “basic training” to increase your stamina, refine your process, and get you mentally and physically ready for the ultimate challenge: creating a layout a day for the first 26 days of September. After you cross the finish line, there will be time for reflection – and celebration!

A Note from Lain:
As your trainer, I have the experience and background to help you through your “stuck spots.” I’m a former contributing editor for Simple Scrapbooks, and I’m the author of several books on scrapbooking.  Most importantly, through my popular Layout a Day (LOAD) challenges, I have already led hundreds of scrapbookers through the ultimate challenge – creating a layout a day for an entire month.

 After spending 13 weeks with your teammates and Lain, you’ll have:

  • A stack of completed layouts!
  • A good sense of your scrapbooking process
  • More knowledge about your scrapbooking style (yes, you DO have one!)
  • A fabulous group of supportive sister scrapbookers who love this hobby as much as you do
  • A reignited passion for this fantastic hobby of ours

Participating in The Mother LOAD - A Scrapbook Marathon, and the process of creating a layout a day for an extended period of time, will literally change your scrapbooking life. You owe it to yourself to give it a try!
