To scrap or not to scrap
I am a bit down today. I am spending far too much time on scrapping and what I produce does not seem to produce any reaction, I only ever get a few comments. I am beginning to wonder if my work is just no good, I asked Suzy (my daughter) and like any good daughter would say she says that it is good.
I would love some CC on my work. Someone should start a site that provides CC on people's layout so that they can improve.
Anyway this is the layout that has not produce any comment.
I would love a comment on it.

Sandra,
Hey! Your LOs are all great! You have a way of using color and design that really makes your photos stand out - you have style!!! Don't let the fact that you haven't received any CC on them deter you from scrapping them. The LOs you are creating will be a treasure for your family and future family (and you already know your daughter likes them!)
I know it's disappointing not to receive CC on everything you post but there's so much out there! I belong to several Yahoo groups that generate about 200 posts a day - I can't even begin to look & CC at every LO anymore! I feel bad about it - I know I'm missing out on some great things.
And a big "THANK YOU" for introducing me to ATCs at Digiscrapdivas! Yours was so cool! I've spent days exploring and finding all kinds of info about them. I can't wait to do your Circle Journal.

I like the circles on your layout, and a cute photo too, can't make out the journaling from your picture but the layout is clean and good lines.
I hope this is nice to see a comment for your work- I know I blog for myself and family but it is nice to have comments sometimes.

Don't be discouraged. I have found that the number of comments you get depends a lot on the time you post your layouts. I have posted ones I love and one received a comment or two. The other thing I do is post them everywhere - lots of galleries mean lots of comments - heehee.
Anyway, I have loved the layouts you have been doing lately. Please don't stop doing this - you are doing if for yourself (because you enjoy it) and for future generations to remember you, not for anyone else. It doesnt matter what they think - future generations will appreciate everything that you leave them.

Did you post this at DSD? If so I must have missed it. The photo is really cute. I like the choices in pattern paper. The colors really compliment each other. There isnt anything I dont like about it. The quality is a bit off, but thats just because of the compression for web, and Ive had problems with that lately myself.
Keep doing what you are doing, as I dont see any faults, I see good clean designs and I dont know why you aren'y getting dozens of comments.
