How often do you Scraplift from yourself? Do you have a "go to" layout that you like to use a lot or do you try and make every layout totally different? Thank god for templates or all my layouts would look the same! Haha

I have never tried this, but it seems interesting. I'm going to but it on my layout challenge list!
I don't know if this counts as scraplifting yourself, but I have done some layouts just to match the layout that I knew was going to be next to it in the photobook. I started out with all different layouts and added the "double page" layout months later. Since it was never set up as a reaul double pager, it felt more like scraplifting than making a double layout.
For my holiday photobooks, I always use templates by Anna Aspnes (or try to re-create her style). I realised after a few books, that I am crazy about some pages and less crazy about others. After studying the pages I really love, I noticed that her style of templates (lots of photomasks and paint, not too many elements) work best with 'real' elements like flowers and leaves, sequin scatters and flairs/brads. So now I scraplift those elements into my new layouts!
I don't know if this really counts as scrapping lifting myself, but...
LoL
I have saved a layout as layered and used it as a template for another layout almost exactly the same using different papers and elements.
Mine was done out of creativity though, just out of "laziness"??? or maybe for "quickness" sounds better.
I agree Marisa - this would be a great challenge!
I have found that there seem to be elements that I'm using a lot, so rather than scraplift myself too many times, I periodically go through my files and purge.
I haven't done this yet. im still in the training wheel stage, LOL
