I'm only putting one goal out there for this month, and that's to complete all the sketches for sketchtember. I do have a head start as I'm one of the hosts, but it's still a big goal.

...but where did August go?!
I want to work on my wedding album this month. I really want to finish that project by the end of the year.

I want to make some good progress in my monthly PL style album. It’s my main project and I’ve been neglecting it a bit but I miss working on it.
I have up to July printed, up to June pictures in page protectors, up to late May with cards added in, and up to early May completely finished with journaling and embellies. There are too many different stages of completion going on and the skipping around is overwhelming me.
My goal is to finish up May and June so I can focus on one month at a time starting in July.

Hoping to get a few pocket pages done for the kids albums.
Also going to look at how many albums and pocket pages I need to start on previous years (prior to 2020).
I am also going to start the Halloween/Fall cards for the swap.

This month I want to finish Allison Davis' class. I got off track weeks ago and don't want to leave the class unfinished.

I want to do some of the sketchtember challenges. I also want to get to my scrapbook area as close to every day as I can.

I'm hoping to make time to get my room back in order. I bought some Ikea shelf inserts (the wine rack type) and as soon as I find some fridge bins containers for them I'm wanting to move my embellishments; inks and paints to them. And I'd like to get all my photos printed so I can actually scrapbook.  |

I want to just get back to scrapping. I'll be happy if I can do even one page of my Happy Planner or 2 cards. It's been a few years, but I have tons of scrap stuff. The only excuse for not scrapping is me.

A busy Sept follows a busy August. I hope things slow down in October! In the past 2 days I have printed about 150 photos or maybe more. I have been to one crop last Friday and have another crop next Friday, just short day crops. I have a mini crop retreat the end of the month. In between my son is visiting from California, my mom is getting out of rehab and I'm planning our annual trip to the Jersey Shore next week. I just got back from a wonderful 10 days visiting friends in Texas. My goal for September is to actually finish some category of photos. I was working on living history photos at CKC in July and maybe I could make a dent in those. In the mean time DGD2 is almost 8 months and I only have her first month scrapped. My daughter in law set up an adorable tea party photo shoot with the girls and I can see myself scrapping those. They are so precious!  |

I am hoping to start my 2021 December Daily album. Yesterday I selected the photos I want to use (will print them this week), and went through all my Christmas papers & elements in the color palette I will be using (pastels). I didn't like Ali's DD kits last year, so didn't purchase any and put my own kit together. But this year I bought the main and PP kits, and I'll be using them for the 2022 album. I did de-stash 2 boxes of Christmas scrapbooking supplies (either duplicates or colors I know I'll never use) this weekend and sent them home with a very happy daughter. |

I don't have any pressing scrap goals this month (aside from still needing my EHD to be fixed).
August was very busy with our family vacation, doing Week in the Life, my oldest's birthday, and the first day of school so I have plenty of photos to choose from. I just need to find the mojo & time to scrap!

I set myself the goal of setting up all of the witl kits I bought on sale in the past into pp in spare albums so I had a visual representation of why I don’t need to buy this years witl kit. Yep, I have three 3x8 albums completely set up and ready for me to just stick in journaling and photos (complete with interactive sections etc), with another two to three 6x8 albums/kits I could make up with all the random acetate dividers, cards and embellies I still have remaining.
Seeing as that means I could do the witl project for another five years without buying a single thing I think I’ll be okay… what do the peas think??🤣
I think I might do the same with my dd items so I can assess what I can sell, what I want more of and what I’ll keep just in case, especially as I’m going to try to embark on a family Christmas traditions album this year. I love designing and setting up pages the most, and this way I just have to print photos and journaling in December and I’m done… after I go crazy buying random things for this years box of course as this is one of the only years that I’ve liked the main kit.

This month I want to finish Allison Davis' class. I got off track weeks ago and don't want to leave the class unfinished. I'm doing well with getting caught up. I've finished 8 so far and I'm working on the 9th sketch. End in sight. I'll be happy to complete the class. |

My goal for this month is to do a major catch up on my weekly PL album. So far I have photos printed out and put into pockets from the first week of June to this week. Now I need to start putting in the journalling and cards.

Must make and mail cards for two September and four October family birthdays. (and a couple of them pretty QUICK!) Have my calendar pages completed.
September cards and one October card completed.
Have my SKETCHtember samples finished and now I can play with my photos and the rest of the sketches. Loving looking at all the different takes on them. Really inspiring. My mind is bubbling with ideas. Just need to settle down and scrap LO's one at a time...

I have 11 sketches still to do so far this month, I haven't made as much time for scrapping as I had hoped or expected, but I think the next couple of days are meant to be cooler and wet so good weather for staying in and scrapping. I'm really struggling with the story mojo this year, normally I have a whole list of stories I want to tell, but I wasn't really thinking about that in the lead up to Sept this year and it's really showing with my productivity. I'd still like to get more than half of the layouts done during the month, and will consider any more than that a bonus. |
