I am!
My boyfriend is working most of the weekend and my kids are with their dad so it's just me at home. I am watching some older Shimelle videos on YouTube and I pulled out three boxes of product from 2014 to use. I was on the GB design team for about a year and I purchased all 8 kits every month... holy product, Batman! It's time to use some of this product up.
Right now I'm working on photos from Busch Gardens, then I'm going to move into one of our trips to Universal Studios last spring. Lots of crafting this weekend!

Yes! I haven't scrapped in months but the past few days I've been working on a mini album and I'd like to finish it up this weekend. It's 6x8 and I've never used that size before but I like it. Usually my smaller albums are 8x8.

I'm hoping I'll find some inspiration to finish up DD's Disney album. I have some time to work on it, just don't have any mojo. I want to work on new photos, but I won't let myself yet. It'll be my reward for finishing:)
Have fun with your new old goodies!

Hope so. I’m in a foul mood dealing with my husband. Haven’t felt creative.

Yes, me, finally! I've been squeezing in some time here and there, but this weekend is dedicated to ME time!
That being said, I have vowed to clear off my work table before I go on to something new. Ugh, it's a big fat mess and I'm not looking forward to it, but it must be done. It's going to be an archeological dig of everything that happened in 2018.

oaksong my desk is a giant mess, too! Glancing around I have 10 packs of Thickers, 3 punches, 5 bins of products, adhesive, my We Are tab punch board, a date stamp, 5 finished cards, my laptop, and a mostly finished layout on my desk. Yikes.

Finished up a photo order yesterday. Clearing off my desk and putting some things away yet tonight so I can scrap tomorrow. Hoping to finish up three LO's this weekend and work on some others.
Update: Woo hoo! Finished two LO's today (Saturday). Will finish the other one tomorrow afternoon. Also, will try to correct a couple of spelling errors I found on some previously finished LO's. Productive weekend.

I have been. It's going to be a mild day today so as soon as it warms up enough I'm heading outside into the garden which is seriously in need of attention but until then I'm happily sticking pretty things to paper.

I cleaned up the remnants of the vacation album papers and stickers this afternoon in anticipation of starting on new pictures tomorrow. I think I’m going to pull out things I think will work and make a “kit” of sorts. I have pictures from when we bought our house two years ago and since it was the first home I bought, at 54 years old, I think it’s scrap worthy!

I am scrapping now and will be all weekend!! YAY me!! I just don’t know where. I signed up for a 15 hour crop tomorrow but am seriously considering not going for several reasons. One, I am a total introvert and love scrapping alone in my craft room. Two, my DD is going through a tough time and I keep thinking I should spend the day with her. And three, the crop is at a new scrapbook store and I have never cropped there and don’t know anyone. I’ll keep you posted what I decide. Regardless, I’m hoping to finish the scrapbook of my surprise birthday party! Happy scrapbooking!!

I might. I just got home from a quick run to Michael’s. I bought a paper pad, and some new flowers to restock my little container. I also got a cheap bullet journal, I’m going to play around with starting one of those.

I just finished my first layout. I used a ton of ephemera from the Crate Paper Notes & Things collection. My "clean and simple" scrapbook page turned into anything but CAS, but I love how it turned out! Onto the second page from Busch Gardens.

My friend retired in May and went on her bucket list trip to Ireland, England, Scotland, Germany, and New Jersey . They were gone for a month and took a 12 day Norwegian cruise in the middle of it all. I bought her paper packs/ephemera for all of the places and today just picked up the new Harry Potter pack at my LSS. They went to see The Cursed Child in there too. I need to get it all together and get it wrapped for her birthday gift. My scrap room is kind of a mess right now and I have been avoiding it. Tomorrow I WILL get my act together.

Finished up the journaling on DS’s pages of his Dubai/Oman/Jordan trip. Basic Gray Spice Market to the rescue! Used the same to make cards for a King Tut exhibit pocket-page layout.
Work table: still a mess.

I am hoping to, but it depends on whether my online order gets here this afternoon or not, and what time it gets here if it does. I am making travel albums for my sisters who are visiting me from Australia later this year, and need to get them done soon so that I can then clean up my craft room and transform it into a guest room for them.

julie5 hope you're feeling more creative today and not in a foul mood. I hate it when someone else is influencing my mood and I can't control it, you have my sympathies craftymom101 I want to see the Notes & Things LO, please? I LOVE that collection. I wish they'd do Notes & Things Two-Point-O! Please share I am going to walk around the golf course with OH, FiL and BiL later but just finished off one LO on my desk and have another one nearly finished. They're for Sketchtember so I can't share yet and then I will try and do some more DT LOs with Amy Tangerine, Shine On. I have not enjoyed working with that collection at all so I need to try and start loving it so I can write a blog post about it for September 1st.

I'm going to try and do a bit more. Off to the dentist in a bit, then confined to quarters for a day or so while my front tramp is pulled up and relaid. I might start asking people for photos because, well, I've almost run out! That's the problem with a solitary life - not much to photograph

Not scrapping but I’ll be doing some cardmaking and working in my 12 days ornaments as well. I ended up getting the Benzie felt and ordering the mmmcrafts instructions for the 12 days ornaments back in July - I'm on #6, Geese-a-laying (I'm doing them in order). I love this project so much!!! It is the perfect project to do at work at lunch or when I have a free moment. I thought it would be craft overload, because I'm also knitting a temperature blanket, doing PL, making cards, and doing regular scrapbooking (I have ADHD if you couldn't tell, lol), but it's actually a really perfect addition to what I'm already doing because it's completely portable, and I can finish just one ornament in a few days (it could be done in a few hours if the felt didn't' need to dry overnight). Thanks for sharing your photo of the maids-a-milking one (I think?) back in June!! To answer the OP's question - yes I'm scrapping this weekend if I can get a few minutes away from my new puppy - she seriously puts a dent in my craft time! I don't want her in my scraproom because she'll wreak havoc, so I have to drag anything I want to do to my kitchen island to work on. Hopefully, that means some scrapping this weekend!

I had Friday off to go to an appointment with DH. I scrapped all afternoon and evening. I feel like my mojo is back lately.
Today I have to get some yard work done and deep clean the kitchen. Then, I hope to get back to my happy place.

I've been clearing my desk so I can scrapbook ....3 packages ready for the post office, 5 letters written and ready to mail also (DH just took them all), GS memberships renewed for next year (we're going Juliette as my troop is disbanding), meeting minutes typed up and emailed for review...
Now to hang laundry and I can play...

I finished up almost every single piece of that collection. All that is left is a few pieces of ephemera and scraps of a 6x6 paper pad.

I have been scrapping since about 10pm last night. I have stayed up to date with my PL albums the past 2 years but for some reason I have not been interested in making 12x12 layouts. On Thursday I did a little work in an art journal and yesterday I finished two 12x12 layouts. Seriously the most non PL scrapping I have done in more than a year. This morning I pulled papers and photos for another couple layouts. I feel like I'm on a role and have some more mojo back.

If I can get up and motivated, I am going to sew something. But I edited and ordered a bunch of photos. My son asked me to do a small photo collage frame for his desk at work so I will do that after I go pick up the photos in a little while.
I am very lazy on the weekends unless I go to a crop.
