I am blessed to be going away for the weekend w/2 pals for some scrappy fun. House right on the bay, huge table to scrap on, no cooking of any kind and a bedroom to myself. Heaven!
I've been slacking off lately, so I'm hoping to get a ton of pages done.
Anybody else scrappin' this weekend?

Wow, sounds like a heavenly weekend! Enjoy! I'm heading to my LSS Friday crop for a bit today, but I have Bunco tonight so I can't stay late. I'm hoping to start on my Christmas cards if my SU order is waiting for me at the crop.

Your plans sound fun! I am to getting busy on cards-- just got a new machine and trying to learn how to use the software. I've managed to create a few, but whew! need to do 'round about 30 more in the next 7 days before I get to 'go home' for the holidays. I also keep looking at the very full moving box of goodies from last scrap convention and my half finished projects and ...sigh.

Sounds like you have a wonderful weekend. Well my ds informed me he won't be around this weekend, guess he has some Physics club activity that he is staying over at the university and my dh let me know I won't be seeing much of him this weekend because of work so I pretty much have an empty house except for two kitties that demand attention every now and then.
My plans are in between household chores is to clean up the craft room and start planning and completing embellies and pages for DD. In addition I have some zipper fabric bags I am making for gifts so I want to finish those and I do plan on running to our local garden center to buy some plants to spruce up the yards (even though its not craft related).

I ran my errands this morning and as soon as I finish some things on my computer I hope to start editing photos I need to print for a few Christmas gifts. Then I need to start working on some digital pages as I have run out of time to make three scrapbooks I decided they can all be the same so I just need to design once and then print and put them into albums I already have.
I then hope to start working on the other gifts I need to make and maybe even some pages for myself. I really need to work with some real paper, ink, stamps and embellishments.

I moved from Massachusetts to the DC area and don't have scrap friends here. : (
I have an ornament exchange to attend in a few weeks and they must be handmade. I'm planning to do some prep work for those. I am waiting for my DD kit to arrive!
If it does, I will start foundation pages.

DH is out of town for the weekend visiting DS. It's going to be a weekend of cleaning and cropping, with a Quinceanera thrown into the mix on Saturday.
I'll be working on my Fall mini album and altered recipe books (gifts). I'm looking forward to getting back into my studio after weeks of being busy and sick.
Have fun at your crops, ladies!

DH will be gone all day Saturday so it's just me and the littles. Think I'll put a movie on for them so I can scrap...  I have two more pages to finish DS's one year album. Then the ominous task of organizing the pages chronologically. Then I'm DONE! I really need to get some adhesive this weekend too. |

I was on a three day retreat last weekend, so no plans for me.  but I would love to scrap some more. My ds football team made it to the playoffs  , so this weekend will be spent traveling to a game (7 hours away). I had to leave the retreat last weekend On Friday night to go to his last game. So glad they won, but I was hoping FB would be over! I can take my needle felting with me, so I will get a little crafty time in at the hotel after the game on Saturday. |

I'm planning on a full day of scrapping next week and that's the best I can do for now. I'm looking forward to finishing up an 8x8 vacation album and as many layouts as I can. I'm planning on hauling out all my stuff and taking over the dining room all day. I'm going to plan ahead, make sure the house is clean and there's a meal in crock pot bright and early. Have a great time with your friends. |

I am going to a monthly crop held by the PTA at a school about 1/2 an hour from me. Was there last night until midnight and today from 9-9. I want to get my journal your Christmas base pages done.

I have NO plans this weekend once the laundry and my errands are done so that means I can spend the entire weekend in my scrap room. Not sure what I'll be working on but it doesn't really matter because it's just my scrap room is my "happy place"!

I have been scrapbooking off and on today while watching football games. I didn't get much done. I've been slacking a lot lately.

All I'm planning to get done is to sort through the Shutterfly order I just received of photos from my iPhone and organize some new purchases I recently made that need to get put away. I have company coming for Thanksgiving and need to straigten up my scrap room that is an open loft space at the top of the stairs.

I went to a Fri night and all day Sat crop and was very productive - I got about 30 layouts done most of them recent pics of my adult sons.
This week on Friday I am going to a 3 day beach getaway and I will be working on an Ireland book my niece asked me to do and finishing up the last of the layouts from my son's baby book redo. That has been a 5 year project of redoing every layout from 1991 to 1994; and splitting layouts so my sons can each have layouts instead of shared layouts. I have maybe 10 layouts left of oldest son to finish. Whoot! I will be so happy to put the baby stuff away!
That will mean from 1991-1994 and 2006-2014 my sons have separate albums. Someday I will split the albums from 1995-2005 but I will not be taking on that project for a long time.
i'm thinking in the new year I will start working on the pics of me and DH before marriage and kids. I'm thinking maybe I will do separate books so each kid can have some pics of us before they came along.
I have so many projects to do, and the ones that should be a priority are the ones my kids couldn't do, which is my life before them. But for some reason I am always drawn to scrapping pics of them, even though they are adults. I get pics off facebook especially of DS1.

In addition to the stuff I planned, I also finished my son's "senior tray." It has all of his school pictures from k-12 grade on it. I used the papers from Simple Stories, the Awesome line. Love how it looks. Each year has a metal letter or a clock to show the year. |

Looks like lots of us were scrappy this weekend! I did, indeed, have a lovely time. Got 4 Project Life weeks done and 20 traditional scrapbook layouts done. Not as much as I would have liked, but enough to feel like I accomplished something. We've already planned a 3 day trip for MLK weekend, so I've got to get goin' on my page kits. Elsabelle (and anyone else, for that matter!) if you live near me, we believe in the more the merrier! |

I have no plans for the weekend other than laundry so I'm hoping to put a dent in my 'catch up' pile. Or I might start on Christmas cards. I don't send all that many so getting them done in a day is do-able.

I have scrappy plans for the weekend. I want to get the cards for care? or what ever ones Jennifer McGuire hosts cards for seniors. Going to do a couple more of them and get them in the mail.
All the house work is done and what have you. I cooked and freezed some food last weekend so dinner is ready just a throw in oven kinda deal.
I'm going to do my grocery shop tonite and then I'm all set.
Having a husband who is unemployed sometimes isn't a bad thing considering I don't have to do a lot of house work anymore.
