Journaling complete! One page to make for 2022 dd and then Iām done (just have to wait for journaling to arrive and enter it in but that takes ten mins). Now onto my other projects - should I: Finish 2022 project life Catch up 2023 project life Do more on my Tokyo Disney album? Help a pea decide š I would catch up on 2023 PL, then finish 2022 PL.

I missed an early Sept crop because I was sick and am missing 2 others because I am out of town. So I have no goals this month I'm sorry - I know how much you rely on the crops to get stuff done

Almost completed pl for 2022 so I think I might finish this album first so I have three projects completed in sept. Then I might take a break on finishing old projects and start playing with my 2023 dd album so I have a chance of it being completed near the end of december

Help a pea decide š Almost completed pl for 2022 so I think I might finish this album first so I have three projects completed in sept. I was also going to ask if you had one project closer to done from your list which might make a quick win this month, but it sounds like you do and you've decided to work on it. Good luck getting it finished.

I have family visiting soon, so I will keep my list on the shorter side for this month: 1. August was a fail with sharing layouts on my Instagram. I will try again this month. 2. Focus on layouts using swap pieces. They are fun to use, and I will have more pieces arriving at my house soon. One done so far!3. Create at least 5 layouts. 2/5 complete.I have a new, small task to add to my original list: 4. Redo my whole scrap room. š
I just ordered a new desk for myself, and it will arrive in about a week. I need to start emptying out my old work station in prep for this new one. My old desk had a good run, but it is falling apart after so many years of use. I decided on an L shaped desk so that I can have room for my sewing machine to try out on layouts.

I have photos arriving today, so hopefully that motivates me to scrap. Unfortunately, school started this week and my kids' schedules are keeping me in the car and not at my desk way too much. Maybe I need to put my desk in my van and scrap in the carpool line... I really liked last spring when I was doing one of the 30-day challenges (don't remember the name) where I would start and finish a page before starting a new one. My usual style is to do all the cropping, then do all the gluing, then do all the titles on 30 layouts at once, and then leaving them in a pile because I don't want to write the journaling... maybe my goal should be to find another challenge list to work off of... So, that is the long way of saying, my September goal is to do something, anything, even if it's just one layout. I am happy to say, I've narrowed an overflowing Iris bin of half-finished layouts down to about 12. Some I just declared finished because they've sat there long enough, some needed a date or a title, some were not working so I took them apart and will try again later... I bought a nice pen and journaled on about half of them which was the only thing most of the pile needed. Now, I can move on to making new layouts with new photos

I completed over 100 pages Jan-April. I had about 30 left to finish the year and most of them were wedding photos. I FINALLY finished them tonight. I did a lot of organizing in the last five months and tonight I popped those pictures in their sleeves. Now tomorrow I'll start to order for 2023. I've got an Alaskan vacation and new grand baby to scrap in 2023. Lots to catch up with.

I have some new/new to me supplies that I want to use. I work obsessively on one project for a few weeks and need to choose well when I set aside my current Noel die obsession. I guess I should make a list of them so I can hold myself accountableā¦ (off the top of my head) C&9th poinsettia quilt die Record/music themed products old MMH coffee kit Halloween scene builder stamps tried twiceGhost background stamp (not new but underused) Simple Stories Christmas paper Doodlebug fall collection Maybe with the stamps and dies I should do a ā10 cards 1 productā type of challenge like some card YTers do. The papers/collections have a natural end point for me - I use them up. Random papers in my drawer Well, I didnāt use the things on my list much so far but I have been using some other supplies that are new to me. Maybe that means I have too many new things. I guess Iāve got a couple of days to try and do something from my list

For September I want to do a little catch up. I finally feel like I have enough free to to go back and work on some unfinished projects Memory planner - need to make a divider for September. Catch up on May - I skipped around a lot October daily 2022 - figure out what stories I want to include for days 21-30. Just make a plan for stories December daily 2022- again plan missing stories. I have less missing on this one. Clean out October daily supplies and take inventory - ā
I have room to buy a little more Work through Heidi swapp stamping class I did everything except - Memory planner, I had 9 weeks to complete. I culled photos for 7/9 which was a pretty big job but I didnāt do any scrapbooking on these. I still need to print out photos. I will do this in October. I also did some of the Heidi swapp class but didnāt finish. I would like to do that.

My final update for September goals: 1. August was a fail with sharing layouts on my Instagram. I will try again this month. This went well in the beginning of the month. But once I tore everything apart in my craft room... oops.2. Focus on layouts using swap pieces. They are fun to use, and I will have more pieces arriving at my house soon. One completed.3. Create at least 5 layouts. 2/5 complete.4. Redo my whole scrap room. I am hoping to finish this project today. Once I stop browsing these forums, of course...
