SQOTD 10/26/2019

Post by Greatgramof5 »

Good morning, scrappers!
I've been thinking about FADS & TRENDS. The only difference between a fad and a trend is that fads are short lived. Fads that I remember are using mustaches and those paper dolls that you dress.. Trends of the past could be using memorabilia and those 6 x 12 albums. A fad turns into a trend by the number of people who like it and manufacturers who make elements for us to use.

What fads/trends have you tried in the past or currently do?

I have done the paper dolls and the mustaches as well as the 6 x 12 pages. I still bring out the fibers and other items on occasion. I think the #1 current trend may be using mixed media and I LOVE the look but NOT so much the mess I make. I do enjoy working with mixed media but it takes a challenge to get me working on a LO.
How about you?

I still use brads on my pages! First it was eyelets which I hated. I was thrilled when brads came out but now there is enamel dots and ways to make your own with nuvo drops

I'm still a mini brad girl too, and I splatter a bit of ink instead of "misting" lol

Never did the mustaches or paper doll things (neither one for with my style of scrapping). I like 9 X 12 albums and still like brads

I tend to jump on with the cute animal / picture trend. You know lamas, sloths, avocados, pineapples, flaminos.... that type of stuff that is around right now. In the past mushrooms, deer heads.
Butterflies and mixed media are my staples now!! I love them.

I dove headfirst into the butterfly fad and have soooooo many still in my stash. Right now I'm into the mixed media trend.....I love getting messy.
