Dh is heading to town this morning--unusual for a Saturday--so I am wondering if I should spend my alone time turning out another couple of pages, or if I should clean up the mess from my last crafting binge. At the very least I need to get my photos all sorted and back into one place (I kinda spread them out all over the place...)

At last I am sitting down today for a few hours and hoping my mojo kicks in. Oh where to start....

I did some cleaning up after I finished an 8x8 album and I organized some pictures that need to be scrapped. I also put some pictures in a mini album I made a few years ago using this tutorial. I made the album and used MME Miss Caroline Dilly Dally and planned on using it for pictures from the fair. We went to the fair that fall and I forgot about the mini and ended up scrapping the fair on a 12x12 layout. As if that wan't bad enough, I forgot about it two years in a row. I'm finally using it!

So, I did finish those two layouts today.
And I took the time to pair background paper to photos, all from the same day trip (from April).
I'm hoping that maybe tonight and tomorrow I might actually put those pages together.
I have been making an effort to use scraps. Been doing well.
And I've been working on using my stash. Why is it that I start to run out of the fun stuff first? Enamel dots are darn near depleted.

Between last night and today, I've finished 4 Christmas layouts from 2015!! And I've used ribbon and extra scrap paper on each of those pages!! I'm finally putting a dent in my stash..What a wonderful feeling!!

I've sort of been scrapping in this early evening. About to put away what I took out so can we leave to for our national day dinner with friends. I've just finished cutting scraps of pattern paper, looking through my box of embellishments, punching out word circles to come up with a super compact TN travel kit for our holiday next week. I'm borrowing an Instax printer to take with me. I'm going to keep it really minimal: pen + a few backgrounds + some puffy stickers + a few die-cuts and chipboard shapes + adhesive tape, that's it. I just want to be able to record my memories and feelings on the go. I didn't purchase anything new for this either. The plan's to get rid of the final bits of old kits and paper I still have. It doesn't need to be or look perfect and elaborate. Just a slightly prettier version of the good ol' travel journal. Have fun scrapping, everyone! those look so good have fun when you go

I'm supposed to be at a crop right now but I have drama with my son. I'm getting ready to head over there and will also scrap all day tomorrow. "Don't bring the drama to mama when it's crop day!" Haha! Things calmed down today and I got 16 layouts done today but only 2 yesterday.

I have been working on a Christmas mini using the Mr.Grant tutorial from Kathy King. Super fun. I started last night and should be finished tomorrow. Housework and meals keep interrupting my scrappy time.

I have only scrapped 2 pages, but I'm super happy with both. I'm such a slow scrapper sometimes. I also managed to tame my scraps and make page kits. I want to organize my die cuts to make them more usable today, and hopefully do a few more pages. I'm calling it a productive weekend!

dald222 Thanks for sharing your wonderful layout. I love that photo - what a treasure! I should post this on the vent thread, but it's scrapbook related, too. My brother went to my parent's house with a cold and hacking cough. We were there for the week and DH caught it and has been sick for a week. So, of course yesterday it hit me. I had no energy and a raging headache. I did at least edit some photos yesterday.

Here are 2 layouts I did yesterday - the dog one is unjournalled in this layout because I sent it to my son to ask a question. It is journalled now as is the art one where the black space is. I noticed when I was putting my layouts away last night that I do many of my layouts by grouping things together on a mat - almost like a mini PL type thing. I am going to try to change it up more I think. Having an 8.5x11 surface can make it hard to see my wonderful patterned papers!

No scrapping for me. DD14 took over my craft table and she's in the middle of a few projects. I don't mind waiting for her to finish. I have plenty of housework to keep me busy.

Not scapping but making memories. 1. WASP Museum in Sweetwater, Texas. I have always wanted to go there and we were just driving and saw the sign and had just enough time to turn around and visit. It was great. 2. Met family for lunch and went to Ragtown Gospel Theater and saw a play....very good. (And fuuny) 3. Spent the night at Slaton Harvey House B&B. Loved it! The whole thing is like a museum and the memorabilia is not locked up, you can just open the cabinets and touch it. They had a nice scrapbbok, too. Lots of fun. 4. Went to church and to best Italian restaurant in town with family. 5. Played board games with gc 6. About to go see musical that gc are performing. 7. Driving home tonight with 2 youngest gc. They have kindles...so very quiet trip.
Probably no scrapping next week with gc but a lot of pics, I hope.

I didn't get my Christmas mini-album finished, but it is mostly done. It is constructed-just down to the decorations.

I left for my crop at 5:30 a.m, so no one was awake when I left. The only drama I had was a dog or two indignant that I didn't feed them breakfast before I left.
