I have this page that I am not sure I like. :giggle You know the type, right? The ones that there is nothing wrong with the page, but you are not happy with it though? I have one in my gallery right now. Do you re-work it?
 
I feel like I am not "done" with it even though it's done. I know I am a wonderful set of contradictions today! LOL!!!!
 
Nope. Not me. If I allowed myself that possibility I would forevermore be going back and tweaking every page over and over. I would drive myself insane. So when I finish a page, I flatten, save jpeg and call it done!
 
I've re-done some pages, because I really don't like them. I think 3 or 4. 1 of them, I re-did completely, from 0. I used same colors and sketch (and photos of course.
:)
 
I did a LO for BYOC this morning that I posted for the challenge and am already reworking it because I don't feel it is the best LO for the photo. :) I don't usually rescrap, but sometimes just feel the whole thing isn't working properly.
 
I almost never revisit pages once they are done - unless maybe I see a typo or if I forgot to add a shadow somewhere. Once in awhile I will add another designer's piece to a CT page - but since I do most of my shopping here, that's not a problem very often.


But that's what nice about digi scrapping! Ctrl+Z is our friend!!!
 
No, I probably should do, looking at some of my pages.... But if I have posted it ,it is done and that is that. Before I post that is a different story, but it usually ends up with me deleting , and starting again , not tweaking
 
I think this one needs like at least 4 or 5 more pattern papers. LOL!!!!
 
I have redone a few of my pages. Usually I know when I finish a page that I just am not going to like in my printed book. But it's pretty rare. Usually I won't call a page done until I'm happy with it, but sometimes I have a deadline or I just need to go to bed and then I'll finish before I'm really happy with it. I bet I've redone about 5-10 pages over the years when I put it into my Shutterfly book and it just sticks out to me and I don't like it.
 
I don't redo pages per say, but I rescrap photos and stories from time to time. Sometimes a product will give me inspiration to tell a story in a different way and I'm ok with that. My take now is different than it was 2 years ago, so it's all valid. I basically do what makes me happy, without pressure to create and that works for me.

Oh I do that all the time, but this page it's just driving me insane looking at it and thinking.... I am not sure anymore if it's done or not. LOL!!!

Yep... that actually sounds like me. I deleted some pages before they were finished because I just didn't like them, but once I call it finished, it's just that for me: finished. And: I also ONLY save a jpeg and NOT the xcf file in Gimp... would take much too much space, and I would be constantly fiddling with my pages.
 
I think I am going to jump again on this page... Thanks ellie and everyone else. I may even show you which one it is and the before and after. I think it's a good base but not finished.
 
I think I have only ever redone one or three over the years. I very much try to call done, done... Otherwise, I'd never have any finished products! I have way too many photos/events/projects to get through to go back an redo. I am def my own worst critic, though! ;)
 
I will sometimes rescrap a picture, but usually it's by mistake. LOL! I don't usually go back and do pages over, although I did go back redo some of the shadows on the first pages I ever did.
