I want to get January-July PL photos in their PP. I started on 8/2 and have Jan-Mar done as well as July. Then I’ll add cards and finish embellishing. All the photos are in through July and I've started adding cards/embellishing!Start my 2021 vacation album. Need to plan the photos out, I know it will be a CT albumTryout some of the new dies I picked up. I don’t use them nearly enough. Done...learned I hate cutting apart metal dies.Start organizing my PL stuff. Really by whole craft area again but I need to start smaller. I've been sucked in the organizing black hole...I want to redo the area. Maybe this weekend I'll start organizingGetting there...

Today I'm trying to finish in progress layouts, of which I have many. I finished two so far. Both last day of school layouts. Now I have nine pages from a fair we went to in June, all spread out in varying degrees of progress. HAHAHA......... Best laid plans and all that. Won't be able to scrap after all (boo!) Well, two layouts finished. I'll work on the others another day.

I'm working on March 2021 layouts.
I probably need to call my CVS store and ask about my photos - I placed a decent size same-day order on Monday evening and the confirmation estimated a 9am Tuesday pickup time. I still haven't received the 'your photos are ready' email and my order shows as in progress still on the website.
I'm not ready to scrap them (I ordered the rest of March plus May and June) but I will be soon and this isn't typical for CVS.

Checking in now that we're 2/3 of the way through August. I've actually made better progress than I thought considering I wrote this list and promptly forgot about it.
* finish up some albums that are nearly done 1. 2019 PL - literally only has one layout needed so I need to stop being a slacker and just do it! 2. 2020 PL - 3 pages left to complete. I'd like to do at least one of these (although all 3 would be better) one layout done
* finish the half done page in my current PL album that I put away even though I still need to do the journaling done! * continue working through the Allison Davis 6x6 sketches * finish at least one of the two outstanding Shimelle half and half sketches
Aside from these I want to keep my PL album from this year reasonably up to date. the pocket pages are done up to last week, and I've caught up on a couple of the 12x12 pages.

Most of these are carried over from last month, since I spent a lot of time cleaning and organizing, but added some new ones too. ✔️•finish Dec 2020 PL so I can put all my Christmas stuff away (only have one week left - hope to finish todayfinished!) ✔️•Organize my leftover Christmas supplies from my 2020 JYC and PL and put away. ✔️•swatch my ink pads ✔️•inventory my Halloween supplies before buying more (or not) - DONE - picking up some EP Halloween Party to scrap school parties 💀😄 ✔️•gather and organize school-themed product for school album - DONE - now I need to match products to photos… •organize school papers for albums ✔️•put away completed LOs from the first SG 6x6 class •prep for September retreat •work on the current SG 6x6 class and Shimelle’s half and half class •Low-spend month - only SG (for free kit weekend) [ETA I bought a LOT at SG…oops!] and Elle’s Studio (note to self - stay away from Ali Edwards upcoming sale UPDATE - it’s Wed of the sale week and I’ve been good so far😂well, the $2 and under sale got me 😳) •back up phone photos I’ve gathered all my school-themed product and also school portraits through the years. Now I need to match them up. I finished putting away all my layouts from the 6x6 class! This freed up one iris container - Yay! I found another iris container with layouts at various stages of completion - some are finished, some need a date, some have one page finished, but stuff gathered for a companion page to do. I’m working through these to sort in date order to put in albums, add a date if needed. The ones that require a bit more, I’ll set aside to address later. It’s a good activity while watching videos for the Scrap Smarter event.

Did some really boring organizing yesterday. Sewed a pillow case for the dog Cut a stencil on my silhouette. And did some mixed media w/my stencil. Not too shabby, but nothing IG-picture worthy. Hoping to get back in there later today to print pictures.

I met my (quite modest) goals. Here is shaker card number two. I've been wanting to use the shaker elements from @thekatsmeow for months and months. I think it needs a little something more but I have until Christmas to figure it out.

I didn't finish all my July goals so I will be less ambitious this month. To make it look like more I am going to spread them out. Honeymoon Photobook - Day 10 (half done) - Day 11- Day 12 - Day 13 - Day 14 (traveling home so few pictures) Birthday Album - 1st make and print - 3rd make and print - 4th make and print Some progress made and I have a week left. I think I will be able to finish day 12 and start day 13. The birthday album is a challenge. I worked on the first birthday pages but I want to change them. I didn't include the cake or decorations. The 4x8 size maybe too small.

I’m happy with how much I accomplished last month. I didn’t exactly stick to my goals but I still scrapped regularly. This month I want to finish up all the sketches for Allison Davis’ class. I have 4 1/2 left to do so I’m almost there. The not so fun thing I need to do is get pictures organized. I need to get pictures off of my phone which has turned into an ordeal since they started being stored as heic instead of jpeg. What a pain. I also need to get pictures off of my camera. Then choose pictures to scrap, edit, upload, and order them. I hate that part of scrapping. I’ve been avoiding my Disney album. I need to show it some love and at least cut a few titles. I finished all my layouts for Allison’s class and made some progress with my pictures. I have an order coming to me soon. I’m still moving at a snail’s pace on the Disney album, though. Right now it’s a scattered mess on my desk and I either need to get an iris box or start working on those layouts because the mess is keeping me from scrapping anything. It’s so much bigger than my previous Disney albums and it feels never ending. So maybe an iris box is the answer for now.

I had plans to make goals for August and its a good thing I didn't because I didn't accomplish anything! Except for making multiple scrappy purchases. Ha! Maybe September will be better!

I know we've still got a couple of days left this month but I'm not sure I'll come back to tackle anything on this list as it's not currently inspiring me.
So here's where I ended up:
* finish up some albums that are nearly done 1. 2019 PL - literally only has one layout needed so I need to stop being a slacker and just do it! journaling done, but can't get motivated to make the page yet 2. 2020 PL - 3 pages left to complete. I'd like to do at least one of these (although all 3 would be better) two layouts completed and the journaling for the last one is done * finish the half done page in my current PL album that I put away even though I still need to do the journaling done! * continue working through the Allison Davis 6x6 sketches I don't know that I've done any of them this month * finish at least one of the two outstanding Shimelle half and half sketches big fat fail
Aside from these I want to keep my PL album from this year reasonably up to date. I have one pocket page to complete and I'll be up to date on those, and I've caught up on a couple of the 12x12 pages. I'm hoping sketchtember will help with some of those.

In the past week I came up with a list of titles for the 24 half done Disney layouts on my desk. When I have some scrappy time I’ll match up papers for the titles to cut on my Silhouette or find some alphas. I’m happy with that progress and I’m ready for September goals.

I snuck in one more layout yesterday to actually finish this task completely, which also finishes my 2020 albums, I'm super happy about it!
2. 2020 PL - 3 pages left to complete. I'd like to do at least one of these (although all 3 would be better)

It’s a good activity while watching videos for the Scrap Smarter event. I finished adding dates and putting more layouts away. For those that are incomplete or have incomplete companion pages, I’ve gathered supplies and am selecting and editing photos. I still need to print photos and will take them to my September retreat.
