Anyone have any plans?
I have an art journal class on Sunday. Looking forward to that. Its always a great time. We mostly just get together and make a page. We usually learn a new technique or try a new product. But mostly its just time to art journal. Its $20 for 4 hours. Plus we get 15% off in the store. Great bunch too.
I am working on organizing. Still working on my dies. Way too many dies..but I love them all.
I also have to start planning for my weekend retreat on NSD weekend.
I am going to cut some Muppets this weekend with my 2 new dies I got. Can't wait for my whole order to come in.
I have been really creative lately. I was going thru some 12x12 paper and saw a few sheets that I know I would never use but looked at it and thought great card background so I cut it up and made 18 cards. Just right then and there. I made 10 thank you cards which I gave away to my mom and 8 birthday cards. I also pulled some paper I can use for Christmas background for cards. Last year I used up most of my 6x6 paper pads for the Caring Hearts Drive. Really killed my stash. So repurposing some paper will be great for this years drive.
I am really starting to make scrapping a routine. i spend little chunks of time here and there and its great. Even if its just 15 mins of organizing. Its still getting stuff done so i can spend my bigger chunks of time actually creating.

Yes!! I am scrapping this weekend - but I have to clean my scrap space first.
We are supposed to be getting a cold front with possible snow so I will be inside all weekend.
I had really gotten out of the habit of scrapbooking. I just wasn't making time for it. I am really trying to change that and carve out time intentionally.

Its going to be cold here as well. I have to stop at grocery on way home to get a couple last minute things but other than that I have no need to go out at all.
I have also been doing a lot of my house work during the week so i am not spending my weekends cleaning.
It has really helped in making time for me.

I've actually been spending quite a bit of time in my scrap room lately, mostly creating cards. This weekend I'm hoping to get back into doing an actual layout!

I'm going to scrap all day Saturday at the Expo. I have absolutely nothing packed, so I will be frantically putting together kits tonight. You can bet I've shopped plenty for what I'm working on, though.

I never know what my family is going to throw at me over the weekend, but I'm going to try to make some time for it. The Team challenges have been a good motivator for me.

I can't play if there are major chores to be done. I can't do that - the house needs the attention! We've been gone a lot lately. And, I skipped a lot of cleaning with the February challenges, LOL. |

I am hoping to get some time in on Sunday, after DH heads of to Sweden for the week. Not sure if I will be actually making pages - we arrived home from vacation on Monday and I have over 1000 photos to sort and decide what to print for my pages. If I can get the planning done and a photo order placed, I'll be happy. Then, I can scrap over the next 2-3 weeks, while DH is travelling for work.

I have not done much scrapping this week, so I'm ready to get some scrap on this weekend! I have new photos and some Tuesday Morning goodies to play with. I just have to make it through today first. LOL.

I might, but I recently splurged on 6x6 paper pads, so might focus on cards all weekend.

I have all Saturday night and all Sunday to scrap. My fiancé is away so I get to play!
It’s so juvenile but I get so excited about staying up super late to scrap. Takes me back to my single university days where it was me myself and I. Wouldn’t change what I have for the world but damn, me staying up super late scrapping is my therapy and my form of rebellion!

Not scrapping but I will be making felt ornaments and also doing some cardmaking. It’s the first weekend I haven’t had to work in nearly 6 weeks so I’m celebrating!

I definitely will be in my craft room a lot this weekend! I finished organizing my photos (for the most part) and edited and ordered a big batch of photos from 2017 earlier today. I'm now working on putting the final touches (and journaling) on a few layouts I have sitting on my desk and then intend on getting more done. Happy weekend!

We are heading out for a two day road trip, so no scrapping for me this weekend. If you are scrapping up a storm and need additional inspiration, don't forget to check out all the April Challenges Regular and NEW on this board. |

It's quite cool here this morning so I'm going to stay inside and play until it warms up enough to head back outside.

I am finally going to tackle some of the pictures that have been sitting in my photo case for years. That’s for Saturday. Sunday I’m going to play with the new paper and stamps I bought. I’ve decided to try doing 8.5 by 11 so it should be interesting.

I'll be scrapping a little later today - I have some things to do around the house that have been nagging me for weeks. This is the first weekend in a while where we don't have anything to do so I'll get to some of those chores, then it's scrapping time!

I copied all of the challenges to a word document and printed it off so I'd have them easily accessible while crafting and then the computer is free to run videos (movies or youtube). |

I have to work all day today, and have some yard work and laundry to do tomorrow, but I so WANT to scrap!! I have to do at least one layout, I think- I have so many scrappy ideas swirling around in my head, and want to do the same- getting something scrappy (or at least creative) into my regular routine. I do have some Christmas cards underway, as well, and some dies / embossing folders I borrowed from a friend that I want to play with.
I think I'm going to scrap ASAP when I get home from work today, to make sure I get going.
