What do you do while scrapping?

[Jam-on-toast]

Normally, I'm actually just scrapping - thinking about the page and choosing the elements and reliving the whatever it is I am scrapping. I don't listen to music or watch TV or anything... I'm just scrapping... But a couple of days ago I was dealing with something and needed to take my mind off things and thought I'd do it by listening to an audiobook. And because it felt weird to be just pacing the room with my Air Pods on, I went to my office and sat in front of my laptop and started scrapping.. The unwelcome thoughts kept swirling my mind, so I was neither listening to my book nor scrapping (lol)... and it didn't help sort out my predicament either... but I did come up with a weird layout which I decided to post in the gallery here... and that made me wonder how other people scrap...

Here's the page I scrapped while not scrapping... I guess I chose the right kit for it...

I sometimes listen to audiobooks while I scrap and occasionally I sit watching TV (not really watching but listening). Usually scrapping has me remembering...and that is enough to occupy my mind.

I generally like to listen to music, usually instrumental, most the time, so that's what I do when scrapping. Watching TV or listening to a book makes me feel like I'm not paying enough attention to either.

I watch youtube videos usually, they don't require much attention and are not very long so I'll put one on and then if I get really involved in the creative process I let it finish and then wait a bit before starting another one. I don't usually listen to music.

I like silence! I can't think if there is something blathering away in the background. I share the office with hubby and make him wear his earphones!

I have my TV on just for background noise but I'm not really listening to it. When I scrap, I need to concentrate on what I'm scraping. Occasionally, if I'm just scrapping for fun, I'll listen to music or an audio book, but nothing that takes my concentration.

tv is on - typically talk shows or entertainment news shows while scrapping

I love silene, but in the evening the television is often on.

Sometimes I listen to audio books and sometimes I have a movie on. I love to watch old movies. Also, some evenings I have a movie on and my husband can watch the movie while I scrap.

That’s what I do. Or my husband watches TV, while I work on the computer. Since he likes watching sports, I prefer doing some scrapping

i play online bingo or rummycub just to have little pauses from the scrapping to prevent losing focus.
During the scrapping i listen to my favourite radio shows.

Oh, that's an idea I need to try...
