Thanks angel97701. You're ahead of me on the sketches and I usually manage them all - only 10 or 11 done so far I think. I hope you get some sleep - it's so hard to function sleep deprived

Linda and any other peas in the path of Ian stay safe! You’re in my thoughts! I have only done two pages this month. But all the sketches are great and I definitely want to get to them all. Just having a mojo less time lately. But it will come back eventually 🙂. I’ll start getting my points tallied. Thanks for leading us this Q Linda!

I'm also behind on the sketches compared to where I have been in prior years, even with the advantage of hosting 5 Thursdays, so already having 5 layouts done. I sat down last night and flipped through some albums looking for photos that would work with the sketches and have plans for three of the sketches now. I also plan to keep working on the sketches as time allows if I don't get them all done in the next week or so.

I'm feeling the same Chinagirl828 - I have my 4 sketches plus 3 3/4 other sketches done. And the sketches were *so* *good* this year - I cannot wait to use them. I was really inspired every morning and keen to scrap, and then I'd go to work and be given alternative assignments (I've made at least 15 cards this month, and a "farewell" banner sign for a coworker) Linda - really just popped in to check on you this morning - hope to hear an update soon - if not, will assume you are without power! Yikes

Thanks kitbop and Chinagirl828 - we were lucky - Ian shifted east so we're expecting some wind today but not much rain. Praying for those further south where it was devastating.

Linda so glad to hear you all are safe and dry! I feel so badly for those that took a direct hit. 😕 ETA: I agree the sketches this year are so so good! I hate it that I haven’t gotten many done during the month. Thank you so much to the hosts!

So glad you are safe Linda! Praying for the rest of the people in Ian's path! I have 18 sketches done with photos ready for 2 more, but still don't think I'll get to all thirty by 10/6. I had a sub day today and I was way behind on counting up points. Brought my layouts to school today as I was subbing. Got them counted up the old-fashioned way and will get them into the thread soon. Still really struggling with anxiety/depression/lack of ability to sleep. Fortunately, I found a new ND to work with and have my first appointment next Wednesday. The only thing that is really bringing me joy honestly right now is being back in my craft cave creating. I am so thankful for sketchtember inspiration! I might get more done next week 10/6-8 while I am at CKC Hillsboro. Mom and I have signed up for the "sit and scrap" so making page kits for the photos with papers etc in mind will be my focus the next few days. Take care!

angel97701 - sorry that you're struggling at the moment -I'll keep you in my prayers. I hope your appointment next week is helpful. Have fun at CKC! Thanks to spending the better part of today and yesterday in the craft room, I have actually completed all 30 sketches! Tonight I'll finalise my points. Everyone - please start adding up your points - don't forget spending/freezing, othr crafts, time spent crafting (I always struggle to track that one), points for leaving comments on the share thread etc... And the MEGA challenge - check to see if you've qualified for those points. If you're still planning to complete Sketchtember - you have until Oct 7th to earn the bonus points. If you could let me know if you're aiming for that and I'll hold off including your points until the 7th. Otherwise, I'll take points ASAP.

Hello ladies. I'm back again. I posted my final cards on the sharing thread. I will be back to post points tomm. Linda glad you made it through unscathed. Those images on the news are horrible of the people that lost their homes.

@homeshoolmum my grand total is 4907 mostly due to the Sketchtember sketches I did get done. I have a few more I plan to use, but most likely won't have them done before Oct 7th . . . other chores and things have been neglected! Plus getting ready for cropping with my Mom (2 days at "sit and Crop") and printing photos to finally use pocket pages for the 100's of photos I have of the Submarine Museum, USS Missouri, and the Aviation Museum. They will also be helpful when I go back to do the Midway.
Off to think about challenges for this month!

Hi Team...sorry I've been MIA here. It was a weird summer. I did get some pages done and will get them pointed by the end of the weekend. Linda I am glad you made it through Ian ok. WTG with completing all the sketches. angel97701 sending gentle hugs. I'm glad you're enjoying your craft room and have scrappy events to look forward to this month.

I have point counting question for this challenge:
T-12 Worn & Loved - 1 point per distressed or torn an edge
Do you count inking edges as distressed?
Thanks!

Post by Linda on Oct 1, 2022 20:14:56 GMT
christinec68 - I would say no because there is another challenge for inking edges (T-1 Play in the dirt)

christinec68 - I would say no because there is another challenge for inking edges (T-1 Play in the dirt) That's where I was leaning but confused with distressed & torn. It seems redundant. Thanks!! I'll finish tallying my points later today.

If you've been keeping track on the points thread, just let me know and I can grab your points from there or you can put the total here or message me with them. If you don't have points to report - that's okay too - life happens sometimes - just let me know so I'm not waiting on them.

My points are 1445. What helped a lot where the spend/no spend, and organizing challenges. Thank you so much for letting me play. That was an experience. I am traumatized. LOL. Just kidding. I think I can do better next time now that I have experienced this once. But definitely not so soon next quarter. Thank you again Linda for your assistance.

I completely relate to my first attempt at being on a team, and those were monthly then. I hope you'll try it again It's all for fun and camaraderie Linda thanks for leading twice this year! My points were 2493. Mostly from shopping/not shopping and what crafting I did do, oh and apparently I'm a video junky because I had quite a few points in that category too lol.
