Not going to change my goal. My 50 LO's is actually close to 100 pages, as most of my LO's are doubles. Wish I could have found a ticker something like one of these to show me merrily getting there

How cute would it have been if you could have the penguins sliding in to 50 layouts! |

No LO's this weekend, but I made a class set of valentines with my dgs. All my supplies, but a collaboration with a 9 year old. Altogether, 32 cards. Going to credit myself with half. Then use the formula I used before for cards: I decided to credit myself two layouts for the 8 cards I put together over the weekend. Off to edit my profile and my Ticker... |

Way to go! Were you following her BOBW to use it, or something else? Yep, this is my 2nd month using "her" BOBW kit (subbing my own) and using it as a stash busting exercise. Last month was a bit harder, because it was pretty random, but I managed to use 14 pieces of paper I hadn't really looked at in about 10 years along with a bunch of embellishments. For February her BOBW kit is pretty focused and she was very clear that you could just use any kit that you had, so I picked a Carta Bella kit out of my stash that had been gathering dust (Spring Market) that for some reason I was just too scared to cut into. What helped me for February is also pulling my photos I want to use. When I did this for January I tried to pick the photos on the fly and that was hard for me too. Sometime next week I plan on pulling the photos and paper for March's BOBW kit out of my stash. |

I've been inspired by kmage to actually lift some of Shimelle's BOBW layouts recently. I'm taking a slightly different approach in that I'm not building a kit and then making all the layouts for a given month from it, instead I'm making the pages that inspire me and am pulling supplies from my stash as I create each page. Today I used some BG chipboard and alphas, and managed to use another scrap out of my overflowing drawer. I'm making much better progress on my 50 layouts than I expected, and am considering extending my goal even though I still have 19 pages to go. I have seriously wanted to go shopping this weekend though! |

Just a few more to go. If I can make use of my time next week when kids are back in school, I can celebrate by visiting LSS’s all the way home! I know. I know. That’s like dieting so you can eat chocolate cheesecake. But a shopper like me needs something to look forward to.
I usually don’t update my numbers until I have a project uploaded to Flickr, but since I do that from my desktop at home and I will be at my ds’s for another week I decided to count now; upload later.

I got the notebook edge punch, a bunch of stamps and some ink. I really like it all, but I wasn't really intending to shop...sigh. I am just going to keep moving forward. 22/50 |

Ooof...the "not shopping" isn't going super well (I caved on the CT album sale), BUT I did finish my Citrus twist album for the FL Keys, so that is something. I jammed 15 pages in that sucker, and it is FULL. So 30 pages, but since they are little, I am counting 2 for a page. So 37/50 pages.
For the CT album sale, the prices seem to be going up and since I got 3, I can ignore all the sales emails for at least a year, maybe longer.

I'm officially done! I need to buy some page protectors as I've ended up using way more than I anticipated between all my current projects, and an online lss is having a sale this week so I think I'm going to pick up some of the Cocoa Vanilla line as well, but then I'm hoping to stay very chilly for the next few months.

Congrats on meeting your goal! Have fun shopping--even if it is carefully controlled--and have fun with that CV. Can't wait to see what you create with it! |

Did 3 more pages for BOBW, so 41/50. While I have shopped, it is MUCH less and I am actually using things too.
I checked, and the pre order stuff I did with ACOT still hasn't shipped, so I still have time to get there, lol!!
42/50
Ok, finished the 4/1 BOBW layout, so now, 43/50.

I have done another 4 layouts, 24 cards, and 15 videos so far, so I am at 75/100. Gotta get crankin’ because I’m going on a scrappy shopping road trip in a couple weeks! 😅👀😬
ETA: ooh forgot I am being generous with my counting and one of the layouts I did was a double page layout, so 76/100!

I did 25 cards last weekend, so I’m up to 47/50…so close! I better get busy this weekend!
I used up a pack of 8.5x11 white cardstock that was a bit dingy and I wasn’t too fond of, but it was perfect for card bases and inking for card fronts and die cuts! Also used up a tape runner that I don’t really like, and need to make sure I don’t have a refill before I toss it.
Anyone else still playing along?
