Haven't had a chance today, I'm expecting company for dinner, but I did think about taking a few pics for my book! I'm doing a pocket page 9x12 for 2016.

Today my DH joined me in my scrappy area and we watched olympics (tennis...great match!) while I scrapped. Sure is nice to have company. He helped me with my journaling choices too. I wouldn't normally be scrapping on a summer weekend afternoon (so few of those) but today is TOO hot and thunderstorms keep rolling through, so I have nothing better to do  Yay! |

I'm getting ready to fix dinner, but was hoping afterwards to play a bit.

I probably won't today, but I was inspired by the LO I did yesterday, so I hope to tomorrow. |

I organized and put some new supplies away today. Looking to pull together some inspiration to make a page in the morning before my day gets crazy.

I'm trying. It's blazing hot and I have the day off, so I'm digging through my supplies and photos. I have so much paper that I really love--how can I find photos that are worthy?  |

It's rainy here but warm. I've been Scrapping a lot lately to keep busy. I'm trying to put myself on a freeze but I'm failing. It's necessary though so digging in my stash is helping. I'm finding a lot of things I forgot about!

Yes...I have been all weekend (actually been at a crop since Thursday). I am not as productive as I normally am, too much visiting, chatting and eating.

I'm hoping to but it has to cool down first. My scrap room is the hottest in the house so it's not much fun when you're forehead is dripping sweat on your layouts!! If only I could perspire glitter!! Ah, to be a unicorn!

I am hoping to head in that direction if I can get off the computer. I have a few hours before the family returns.

I'm off to my happy place in a few minutes. I was really productive last night. DH was out all evening! I did two layouts and then purged about an inch of paper. YAY!

I'll be heading up to my attic space in 5 minutes and turning on the A/C. It's been too hot today, so I took care of a project in the living room. I put together an ikea cabinet, everything but the doors. I'll figure that out another day.

I've been scrapping on and off today. Been having a hard time finding some boy scrappy stuff in my very large stash  I have so much that works great for a girl or for pics of all of us together as a family, but sorely lacking in the boy department! So most of my time has been spent digging thru my stash and trying to find the right paper, and then feeling frustrated cause I don't have what I think I need! And then thinking this is crazy, all this shit and I can't find something that will work?!!  Which then leads me to thinking I need to buy some boy stuff, which then has led me to online shopping and then I get sucked down the rabbit hole, and scrapping has fallen to the wayside..... |

I've been scrapping this weekend but have made such a mess that I need to reorganize before I can do another layout. I might just browse Pinterest the rest of the night and make a new mood board.

I scrapped late last night after work.
I've been working on scrapping professional portraits that were taken last year from Easter and also summer. They are so hard for me to scrap because I'm always afraid I'll fail them somehow, since they are so good.
But I've been pushing through and I like how my layouts have been turning out.
I also put away my Nuvo drops into a drawer I rarely open. I was about to toss them, but last minute decided to just stick them in a drawer.
And then I went through all my Stickles (thirty some bottles), testing to see if they had anything left in them. I tossed about 6 empties, and am very pleased that so many still have something left.

Woke up at 5:30, tossed in some wash then started cleaning/organizing my scrap area if that counts. Found more paper I had pulled for the vacation album I started 4 years ago and most of my blue/green/gray cardstock that I couldn't figure out where it had gotten to. When I get back this morning I have to start packing for the beach and celebrating my DD birthday. I did stamp a gift card for her present.

Just finished a layout inspired by Shimelle's class. And I used stickles for my title! Now, off to grandma's swimming pool! |

Does preparing to scrap by getting supplies and photos ready count? I am eagerly (and not so patiently awaiting) my box of Shimelle's Go Now Go! which could be here tomorrow! SO I am pulling goodies from my stash that I think will work well with it and getting some photos ready, so that as soon as it arrives I can begin!

I received my big scrapbook.com order yesterday so I spent some time caressing everything. Then I organized and cleaned my craft room again. I made a plan and now I'm done with my housework for the day so I can go scrap alllll day long guilt free!  |

I have wanted to do a portrait scrapbook of my kids professional portraits/school pics but like you, I am afraid I won't do them justice. SaveSaveSorry. I don't share my kids' pics online. You understand, I'm sure. But I will tell you what helps me with those photos. Keeping the layout very clean, very linear keeps the focus on the photos. I'm mainly scrapping 5x7 photos (one per layout) on 8.5x11" backgrounds. And drawing a theme out from the photos themselves is helpful. For the Easter ones, I used the Easter bunny and Easter eggs, and a basket image. For the summer ones (harder) I noticed that they had whales on their shirts (I was that mom who put both young sons in identical shirts). I pulled out my nautical supplies, and I even had a small stamp set that had a whale on it. I pulled a PL card that had a whale on it. I repeated the navy and turquoise from the shirts in the papers. I actually had a 6x6 pad of winter patterned paper (Jack Frost by AC) and used the non-snow papers from it. |

Yay!
