Thanks for the support everyone I was on a scrapbooking hiatus from 2015 until summer 2020, and during this time, I bought no scrappy items either. So with the 40 - 45% end of year sales... well, it's been impossible to resist But as Chinagirl828 mentioned, the third time will be the charm. Or at least I hope so, LOL.

I need this challenge. I spent some of an ACOT gift card I got for Christmas last night but now I’m ready. I hope to get through the 50 pages by June. Some of the Ohio scrapbook stores are going to try a shop hop again this summer (they tried last summer, but covid) and I need use some of what I have so I have room to fit some new paper.

I bought some new mats for my Cameo today. My current mats are loosing their stickiness so I’m ok with this. I’ve been using my Cameo a lot more recently. I’m loving the Bluetooth!

Got two Christmas LO's done so far. So 48 to go.
Feel like I want one of those count down clocks they used to have on some of the weight loss sites. If I find one, I have no idea how to add it to my signature, but-- off to look...

I can not commit as I know I would fail. Vickie Boutin s new line comes out on January 12th . Actually tons of new products will be released in January. Do I need more stuff, definitely not but it makes me happy. It’s going to be at least another 10 months or more of social distancing so I am scrapbooking more than I ever have in the last 15 years. The only thing different will be I will probably use the new products sooner!
I will put a freeze on buying new tools and a freeze on dies except for Vickies B for the new collection

Just watched, love this! Your layers are amazing and I love the story of how Tucker got his name... Thank you! I’m doing a live today at 3pm EST if you’d like to come. www.facebook.com/groups/onemommyscrapping I need to do a page about his name. There are a few stories as to why we picked it over other possibilities. His full name is Preston Tucker “Trip” Myers. It’s a mouthful but has some special meanings.

So, I filled up an online cart with a few potential scrapping goodies, and then I printed off my list.
I promise, will make my purchase only after I complete 50 layouts. I think I have completed 5 so far. I will post my IG link to them soon.

ebbie that photo is adorable and your page--and title--really play on that fun look in his eyes! And WTG with the will power!
lilacgal , you are the QUEEN of layering. Love your Tucker page!
I am working on my 3rd page. Couldn't find that tracker I wanted, so if anyone finds one, please share.

I think you need your own as there is a pin (password) to update it but it's easy to make - pick scrapbooking ticker, pick the design for the strip, pick the design for the ticker, input your layout goal...

Thanks, Linda. I tried to go to that site, but it isn't available to me. I think your snowman and snowflakes is cute, though! Looked at some other sites but they didn't work for what I wanted, so I will just keep typing it in: 3 done. 47 to go.

This is such a great idea! I remember using one when I was pregnant. Happy memory to recall! I really like I could make Tucker my counter. 😊

I DID it! Had to go grab your tracker, lilacgal, and then choose Create Your Own.

Oh my gosh...so much beautiful work already!
I seemed to have forgotten how to scrapbook and made an ugly page yesterday. LOL I knew the first couple were going to be rough since it's been so long since I made a page so I purposely picked picked a light topic.

I seemed to have forgotten how to scrapbook and made an ugly page yesterday. I bet it is not ugly...we are always our own worst critics. For me, I have a hard time if I feel my photos are too beautiful! So if I take a gorgeous pic of the beach, I feel like my scrapbooking cannot live up to it, lol. I bet when you see that LO in a month or two, you will come at it with different eyes and not dislike it so much. I also try to follow a sketch every now and then...at least if I don't like it after the idea wasn't mine, lol!!! Thanks again for providing this inspiration!
