Last night I ordered prints of my April 2016 pics. I try to order them on the last day of the month, every month. I was a few days late this time.
A few days before that I finished scrapping my DD's eighth grade photos for her school album. I still need to scan and insert some of her awards, but that will have to wait for another day. The photos are done, hurray!
I really feel like scrapping but have no time. Or when I have the time, I have no energy.
So, what was the last scrappy-related thing you did?

Ordered 2 big batches of photos from 2015. I'm still catching up with photo ordering.
Working on 2015 WITL project.
Thinking through a bunch of LO ideas for NSD. Looking forward to this weekend!

Still working on album with photos from our photography workshop. Trying to use these fold out page protectors that I don't like at all. I have 3 or 4 more pages to do.

Last night, I cleaned off my craft desk which was piled way to high and made a dent in the pile on the stamp table (which was from March's Calvinball)....

Opened a box from Amazon that had a scrappy item in it and put said item on my desk where it is still sitting unopened. I haven't had time to scrapbook much the past few weeks...

I was at a scrapbook retreat this past weekend and dumped all my stuff back on the table Monday night. But I still need to put everything away.

I'm doing my best to scrap as much as possible this month. Once summer starts I won't have as much time to scrap. I'm doing the TYS challenge. So far I've scrapped 10 layouts this month and have chosen paper for the 11th.

Last weekend, I finally organized my project table. (I found Christmas items at the bottom of one stack!) Started going through DD's high school album to add final journaling and embellishments on pages where I was previously uninspired. Started a Mothers' Day card using Basic Grey Urban Luxe. Oh, and I also practiced some brush lettering -- something I'd like to try to master.
Thanks for starting the thread. It's fun to hear what everyone is up to.

I actually did 8 pages yesterday for a pet gift album I'm making. I probably would not have done much this month if I wasn't on a time crunch. It was kind of fun! I did not stress about every little detail like I tend to do with my own layouts!

I'm doing the scrap happy LOAD challenge for May so I made a layout last night, and will do one today. So far I'm loving this challenge.

I co-hosted a Crop for the Cure on Saturday. We raise money for the Relay for Life. I worked on my Disney album while we were there.

The last scrappy related thing I did was my friend and I went to a pajama crop Fri night from 6 pm to midnight. We were the last ones to leave. It's a CM consultant and she provides a nice dinner and a scrappy gift. I had a good time and got a few pages done, but it is kind of cramped and the people in the room with us were constant talkers so it was rough at times but I can usually make the best of it.
Since then I have ordered 2 different scrapbook albums off ebay and I'm not sure why because I don't really need them. One of them I thought was 8.5x11 and turned out to be 12x12. They will get used but they were both sort of impulse buys. I got one of them with my phone when I was in a meeting and tuning out.

I attended the "Scrappin in the Burg" three day crop in Fredericksburg VA with my BFF scrapping buddy this past weekend. It was a great time with plenty of room to spread out, a catered lunch on Sat and giveaways all three days, a variety of products to buy from different consultants and just being creative with a nice bunch of like-minded gals! I'm a slow scrapper, but I'm happy with the eight pages I finished. Looking forward to the next crop in the fall!

I am currently working on a four page layout of our camel ride on the beach in Mexico. The guide took great pictures using my camera, I took pictures of my camel who would not leave my son alone, and a few funny pictures of my son reenacting the dinosaur scene from Jurassic Park.

I broke into the Totally Rad collection from Cocoa Vanilla and made my first 12x12 in at least a couple of months (I had been knee deep in finishing up my 2014 PL album). They need an American distributor. $1.75 for a sheet of paper and $6+ for ephemera is just not going to make their stuff something I will buy all that often. I love their releases but that's just too much for my blood.

I made this page to put at the end of my niece's graduation album. I will be adding a poem around the edges of the gray paper.

Um, does reading the boards here count?
The last thing I did was start three layouts on Sunday. My goal is to finish them all this weekend.

Bought some paper pads, stamps and rubons at TM. If that doesn't count then made my first trial cuts on my Cameo.

Did a Foto Folio from Paper Phenomenon. That group has really inspired me to get back into scrapping. Also cleaning in the scrap room yesterday.

Um, does reading the boards here count? Totally counts! So, yesterday while getting ready for work I grabbed a photo that I've been meaning to scrap. Well, truth be told, it's not the photo that inspires me so much as the story i want to tell and am using it as a visual, sort of like an embellishment. I sing a silly little ditty to my boys almost every day, so it's a pic of them and I will journal the ditty on the layout. Anywho, yesterday I grabbed the pic, some enamel dots, a stitched paper frame, and some "boy" stickers and put them together on my desk. This morning I grabbed the first sheet of paper from my stash that will work for the layout, cut it down to size (from 12x12 to 8.5x11). Hopefully by day's end, it'll be a finished layout. I'll work on it bit by bit. Today is my day off, but I have a ton of errands to run, so I can't dedicate any real time to scrapping. Isn't that always the case? Well, keep your posts coming, ladies. I love hearing what people are working on. And remember, everything counts. Shopping, this site, pulling together a few things here and there. Even just thinking.

Are they awesome! I am coming up that way for the St Judes Crop in August, are y'all going?
