I ordered June 2021 photos last night. Way, way ahead of the game, compared to my procrastinating self for the past few months. I had a lot of photos, because we did a lot of stuff now that the kids are out of school and it's good outside weather.
My goals are to start kitting up photos from March, April, May, and June, so that when I finally get to sit down and scrap, I have a less overwhelming task in front of me. I
Now is also the time where I have to decide whether I will scrap my zoo photos as a stand alone 12x12 album, or if I will include them in my 8.5x11 everyday album.
I have a year membership, so there will be photos aplenty. I think I'm leaning towards the stand alone album.

I've been doing weekly planner spreads each Sunday pretty consistently. I'll continue to do that for July. It's more to record memories at the end of the day. I challenge myself to use scraps and products I've owned for a long time.
I need to finish January 2021 and April 2021 photos for my family album. I'll order May 2021 when those are finished. I have a lot more months to order, but I'm hoping this will be a good incentive. Scrap a month, order a month. 
My daughter and husband are going to Disney World in December and I've been saving lots of ideas. I want to make the budget stretch and be more creative with what I have. I'm going to experiment with different materials in my die cutting machine this month. I have bought a few things, but I'm going to wait until I see photos before getting anything more for that album. The peas on the Disney thread helped me out a lot!
I've been doing a lot of pocket scrapping which is lots of photos and just a couple of empty spaces where I journal or embellish a card. I'm going to look through my 8.5x11 holiday/birthday albums and figure out what photos to order. I may order them instead of May 2021 photos next. I'm needing a change in scrapping. So Maybe scrap the two months, order some birthday, Christmas, or Halloween photos instead! 
I've been mulling around the idea of doing a mini album about the area where I live. There are events going on this summer. I am going to at least take some photos this month.

I didn't get anywhere near as much scrapping done in June as I'd hoped, so I hope to catch up on some pages this month. I want to:
* do the last couple of pages for Shimelle's half and half class
* catch up on some of the SG 6x6 sketches
* catch up on some of my PL pages

I’m going to finish our Bermuda cruise album. I think there are only 5 or 6 more layouts to do.
I need to figure out how to get pictures from an external drive uploaded to Snapfish or Amazon (I don’t have a computer and the laptops we have are old and won’t do the job).

@meelleek -- would you feel comfortable doing something like that on a library computer? I know our local library's computers aren't the fastest, but might do in a pinch. |

My July goals:
-finish April 2021 layouts
- work on Christmas 2019
-work on Christmas 2015
- work with DD on sorting her Europe trip 2017 photos into layouts with notes
Accomplishments:
-finished April 2021
-scrapped the portrait of DS I missed when I did my portrait album
What's next?
Just pulled out my December 2019 album - I did my one and only DD that Christmas so there aren't many Christmas layouts that need doing but there are other December layouts to do. I'm estimating about 18 layouts -mostly one page but some two page. And I need to track down the pics from the company Christmas party...

Late to this thread but I would like to complete 15 layouts. Mainly Christmas holiday related with a few others here and there. So far I have made 3 and am working on my 4th.

My photos from March, April, May, and June are sorted by event into page protectors.
There are several in progress layouts on the shelves. Eek.
I did finish a couple though.
Oh, and random, but you know how that trendy "GOAT" abbreviation showed up on die cuts and sticker in masculine lines? Well, I can't not read it as goat, like the animal. So I added those embellishments to my zoo stash, LOL. Yes, I will be using them to scrap the petting zoo pics.

I am late this month to one of my favorite threads. I've been on vacation and enjoyed every minute.
I'm currently editing all of the photos I took.
I have 3 crops this month. The last one is at CKC. I'm excited they have offered all day crops this year.
My goal is to just make good use of all my scrap time and get as many photos scrapped as I can. There are so many to choose from!

I want to: * do the last couple of pages for Shimelle's half and half class * catch up on some of the SG 6x6 sketches * catch up on some of my PL pages Check in time: I've made some progress on the SG sketches, I've finished one more and have another mostly done on my desk. I've done a couple of PL pages, but I have done nothing towards finishing Shimelle's class. |

I posted about my #1 scrapbook goal for the month here, First & foremost, I must solve this problem, and get that album done. There is a garage sale next Sunday (July 25). I have stuff ready to put in it that needs pricing. A lovely friend is coming ASAP to help me with both of these items. I then want to do a bit more organizing - specifically, I have pages that need finishing touches & then they need to go into albums. I have to see about getting my external hard drive working. Either that, or get a new one... but if I do that I have to move my photos onto the new one. August will be about scrapbooking for 'me.' |

Today i scrapped a bit.
Finished May pandemic layouts. It includes me getting my vaccines.
I tried organizing the area surrounding my scrap stuff. Had so much stuff just piled up. More needs to be done.
Went to Dollar Tree and bought some stickers. They didn't have much, but still managed to get a few packs. Still no dies, though.
Hoping tomorrow can be a very scrappy day. I have so many photos kitted up that it's a little overwhelming.

I finished the Bermuda album and I love how it turned out! CVS has their photo kiosks open and I plan to get there next Friday and try to print some photos. I also did some cleaning of my Alex drawers. I didn’t purge anything but got them much better organized. My next goal is to start putting pictures with Scraproom kits to bring to a weekend crop in November. |

Congrats to everyone who has made good progress on their goals this month. It's both inspiring and a kick in the pants to see other people ticking off their to do list.
My check in:
* do the last couple of pages for Shimelle's half and half class sadly no progress here
* catch up on some of the SG 6x6 sketches I finished a couple as noted in my mid month check in, and managed to get one more done since then. I've still got 5 sketches to complete out of the 11 weeks so far.
* catch up on some of my PL pages good progress here, I'm all up to date on the pocket pages, although I might do this week's later today, and I've made good progress on the facing 12x12 pages as well.
I've actually created quite a lot this month, 16 pages so far, and hope to get another one or two done before month end.
