that has been sitting around for weeks, months, or even years? I need some motivation. Currently I have completed a bunch of kits for a friend who is struggling right now. She spends most of her evenings in front of the tv scrapping if she is motivated.
I have finished a few dog pages, but my scrapbook table is filled with online shopping purchases that need to be put away.
I need to finish my cruise album that is about half way done.

Lately?
Nothing.
My scraproom/bedroom has been taken over by my adult dd, & with the shelter in place, she can't go to work, and never leaves it.
Not to mention my younger kids are home 24/7, and we're doing homework & playing. There's never a break.
As far as unfinished projects, i still have the last of a Disney trip from 2008 to finish, and an abroad trip from when i was fourteen.
One day...

Nothing other than keeping my memory planner current. Apparently I’m not a stress scrapper like I’m a stress eater?

I've been busy. So far I have finished:
---3 (maybe 4?) layouts. ---Jan and Feb PL and will start March tonight. ---cleaned out my room. ---Day 1-5 in my December Daily.
Considering I hadn't touched anything since late Nov, this was quite the jumpstart.

I plan to finish my Fall and December TN journals, but first, I'm switching over to Disney layouts through the weekend. I love having so much time to create, and appreciate that my life is relatively worry-free for now. Safe distance {hugs} to all of you whose lives have been sidelined.

I had several bags of chips too but I’m envious of your fudge it's quick and easy fudge - my granny got the recipe off the dominos icing sugar box decades ago and she taught it to me back in the early 80s when we lived with her. I often leave the nuts out because the people in my house are plebians who prefer their fudge nut-free. www.cooks.com/recipe/765d5856/domino-quick-nut-fudge.html

Last weekend I finished 3 days at New Years. It took me forever because I took so many photos New Years Eve and New Years Day. We visited family, etc and I scrap for DGD and my 2 sons. I was so happy to get that done.

I collaged a few memorydex cards but mostly I have been sorting and organizing my stash of ephemera. With two people home hogging the computers and constantly on conference calls I can’t access my scrapbooking supplies and need quiet jobs to do.

Yesterday I finished off a batch of cookie bars. Besides that I've been averaging about two layouts a day. Last weekend we watched the Star Wars prequels. The cheese factor was incredibly high but we got through them. This weekend we'll watch Rogue One and start the original trilogy.

I will also be leaving out the nuts. I have a huge jar of confectioners sugar I never use for anything so, may as well experiment with fudge.

I haven't been scrapping, but I was gifted 7 bags of SU wood mounted stamps so I have been unmounting them as I sit by my kids and help them with homework.

I managed to put everything in my scrap room that wasn't in its proper place onto my big comfy chair in my room. Now with all of it off of my table and surrounding areas, I can feel like I've taken the first step. Later tonight everything will find a home.

I’m still working because you know, health care, apparently essential. Lol. I still have been scrapping slightly more. Finished DS’s graduation layouts from 2018.
I need to order photos. I have been trying to take lots of photos this month so I can scrap everything about the Covid 19.

I've been going through my kids old school mementos that were shoved in a file to be scrapped "someday". This week I've pulled those suckers out, put them on a simple page and stuck them in an album. I'm embracing "good enough and done" over "perfect and never completed"!

Finally started on reorganizing alllll of my SB layouts, including taking them out of at least a dozen existing albums and sorting in the 1-1/2' stack of completed layouts in my craft room. Had everything mostly ready to go into their color-coded CM albums that I've been buying over many years and while on a 2-1/2 hr conference call a couple days ago, I started loading them in. It was the best feeling ever, I never had a block of time that I wanted to tackle this, so I've put it off for years! Best thing is when they are all done, I'm putting them on a shelf in the living room and they are freeing up a ton of space in my craft room Besides that, did a dozen cards for a swap last week and assembled my entire March paper pumpkin kit. Hope to get going again on my PL books next.

I’ve been able to complete absolutely nothing — my life is busier now. However, what’s next on my slate is my December 2018 trip to Japan. I bought a Citrus Twist album just for it.

My 2018 album is finally done. And, I need to check it over one more time, but I think 2017 is done too. I just need to label the spines.
It feels good to have something finished!

I have finished alot of pages for my Winter album and the first page for my Spring album. A few pages in my "All about ME" book. Some cards. Played with watercolour pencils. Starting on a 4x6 chipboard book for one of my dgs.
I never scrapped when I had kids at home. Can't believe you get anything finished with a houseful of kids, 2lavenderlayoutlady and all you other moms.

I have to go back to work on Monday, so I'm trying to make the most of my last couple of days. Today I made a page that I have had the photo printed and product pulled for since July 2018. I totally love the way it turned out and I feel so accomplished! It's just one page but at least it's one page now done.

I bought albums for making 50 states scrapbooks for my 2 grandchildren, several years ago. I finished the states they have visited. It went quickly, because i did minimal embellishing on those pages.

Chair is now empty of all of things that needed to be organized and put away. Now floor needs to be cleaned. Nothing made it to a new home... just the floor. It is organized though.
