I'm taking a bit of a break now to watch our football game - if we win, we win the German championship for the year. I did manage to finish 3 LOs this afternoon - they only needed titles and journaling, but still; done and in the album. Only one LO left to go to finish Barcelona, and it is one that fits one of the challenges. Hoping to get that done tomorrow, then start planning my next adventure!

I spent the day at the zoo but got some great pictures! And my photo order arrived! And we stopped at ACMoore on the way home...

Do you have zoo themed papers, etc, linda? I have quite a stash along those lines, which represents a lot of wishful thinking about taking the dgk's to the zoo. I could share if you need some...

I have posted many time that I don't scrap at home. But this morning I pulled 5 pages from an album that I knew I needed to fix in one way or another. 2 of them I needed to squeeze in another picture I found, and one needed dark navy cardstock because the more royal blue was not working every time I looked at it.
When I was going to put them in the bin to work on later I said why don't I just fix them now? 3 of them I was able to fix to my satisfaction and now they are going back in the albums!

I'm at the roller rink with 5 kids, but I'm taking pictures! I LOVE roller rink photos! I have kind of horded roller skate paper. If you can't find any and like to scrap in themes I know I have a piece or two I could share - at least some roller skate paper strips you could use!

And msliz, I have a set of THESE Taylored Expressions stamps with dies. Let me know and I can certainly stamp a few for you in the colours you want to use, cut them out, and tuck them into an envelope!

I have wasted the weekend and just started packing now for next weekend. Leaving straight from work thursday. So car needs to be loaded Wednesday night. I have my toiletries done. Yay I won't smell at least. Art journal kit done. My big shot plus commandeered my over night bag and my rolling carry on type suitcase (which I transport reg big shot in) is now going to be my overn ite bag. Not liking it as much to pack in. Half my tools are packed. Just have dies, stamps, paper left. I'm uses paper boxes. I figure they stack well, uniform shape and can handle weight. I'm really trying to pack well and not crazy like.

You're both so sweet to offer! grammadee, if you're sure it's no trouble, yes! I'll send you my address. myboysnme, Thank you so much! but I'm going to ask you to give it to someone else. My pages are so photo heavy that you often can't even see any paper. And often I scrap PL style without any PP at all. I'm not sure what I'm going to do with these photos yet, but there are a lot of them, and I think I'm going to be headed that way. You're both so sweet!

So who is joining in for this upcoming weekend?
Dh leaves Thursday for his trip. I have some commitments Thursday, but starting Friday morning I am free and clear to play!
If you will be playing, let us know. If you will be hanging out here, great! If you will be hanging out at another site--like ACOT or Scrapbook.com, let us know where you will be, and maybe we can visit you there.
And if you finish something crafty, please let us know: we'd love to see it--or at least hear about it.

Hopefully, once I am done with that I will still have some energy left to join in Sunday afternoon. I'll be around all week leading up though - hoping to get loads done tomorrow and Friday.

That always feels sooo good to get things fixed that have been in the back of your mind. Did it spark an interest in continuing to do pages at home?

I got a few pages done, but I am out of page kits, so today I am going to use crystalb bash it and the other one(can't think right now-not enough coffee) kit prompts and get some kits lined up for this weekend. Hoping the mojo continues because I'm having fun

One more sleep until my Home Alone adventure. I have to leave soon to head into work for the day. Will pick up some groceries (foods I like but dh is not fond of) on the way home. Dh will be leaving for the city while I am gone. Prob won't get anything crafty done tonight, but plan to be at the starting blocks in the morning.
I can't remember an NSD when I had the time or the opportunity to actually scrap! Seems like every year we have been busy here, or I have been with dgk's or... So I am excited for my long weekend to start!

I'm starting to get excited! I've had soooo much to do this week that it's been crazy! I'm scrapping for sure on Saturday. DH and DS are going to have a buddies day, so I will have the day to myself to scrap!! If nothing comes up, I'll carve out some time on Sunday as well. I'll be on the board as much as possible, and will likely participate in some other challenges as well. Likely Victoria Marie and maybe Hip Kit in addition to the challenges here. Still have to give some thought to photos, products and stories I have ready to scrap. I went grocery shopping yesterday and bought a bunch of "grab and go" food. My plan is not to cook after tonight through the weekend! Is it wrong that I'm super excited about that part?

I'm home from work due to Shingles, and want to get some scrapping in, but feel run over by a bus. Nerve pain really takes the fun out of things.
I still may putz around with my scrap stuff, though.
I'm waiting for my April photos to be delivered. Not that I don't already have a ton of pics just waiting, but you know the fun of new pics.
I really miss having lss around.

Happy pre iNSD! I have shopped does that count? I also finished pulling my May build your own and bash it kit.It is raining "giraffes and elephants" as my DD used to say today so I am enjoying the soothing sounds and letting it calm me. This week was a rough one.

I found my scrap counter, and the page kits I had set aside when I unpacked from the crop. So far, I have one card and two pages finished. Only the card meets any of the challenges. Hoping for two more pet pages before I take a break and then move on to a different kit. ETA: two more pages completed. I will post these in the challenge thread later b/c I used an on line class as my guide, and I used some bits of metal that fits with dasmith2's "I challenge you" thread.

I got sidetracked for a bit. I saw that Walgreen's has a 40% off print special (which I like because it's all sizes and no minimum quantities,) so I thought I'd peek into what I have to print. I don't have many events from this year to sort through, but there are a lot of photos from each event, and the editing would just take too long to worry about it for now. I need to take advantage of my quiet house and get some pages made. They'll run another special soon enough. Back to the hunt. I need to find paper and bling for a Fourth of July page

I am going to be scrapping today. I am going to work on pulling together the May build your own kit and bash it kit first. Then work on some mother's day cards. I may be able to scrap a little tomorrow morning before we have guests for the afternoon evening.
