I have Easter 2023 layouts in progress on my desk that I started Friday night and haven't gotten back to yet to finish up - hopefully today.
What are YOU working on? Or what do you wish you were working on?

Cleaning my work surface so I can actually scrap.
Putting together and finalising the layouts I’ve half started for dd’s album and trying to use as many old sbtm cards and ephemera as possible so I can use cohesive collections Jan-dec starting next year - I’ve got bits and bobs of 2021 and earlier kits I got on sale I want to clear out

I have a sketch challenge going on with some friends, so I have to complete my March layout by the end of this week. The sketch was not a favourite of mine, so I am struggling a bit with the layout. I would also really like to get my February project life pages complete. In terms of things I would like to be doing, I am attending a crop in April so I really want to get organized for that. I also ordered some supplies to make some Christmas cards of all things, so I would like to spend some time making cards. My supply is getting low and I like to have some on hand because they are so expensive to buy. In crafty things completely unrelated, I am trying to resist the temptation to buy supplies to make wax seals for the envelopes of the aforementioned cards. Not something I need to get into, but it seems like fun  |

Nothing really. I haven't done a layout since February. What's wrong with me?!  Every now and then I will open up my latest PL page, but I'm just not inspired. I just sit and stare at it, move a couple of photos around, then close it down. I want to catch up on the February challenges that I didn't do (ie. most of them!), the Sketchy Saturday sketches that I didn't do (ie. most of them!), catch up on my Project Life, and work on my Thailand 2023 album. |

Finished three layouts last night. Night out with friends at a dive bar, to watch a friend of a friend play in the band.
Cleaned up and put away the stuff from making those layouts.
Working on dinner out with friends.
I pulled out some stickers and embellishments, that I might want to use. Still need to pull out paper.
I was sidetracked, by a little product re-organizing and go through.
I am way behind(several years-decade) and I am perfectly okay with that. It will get done, when it gets done.
It's fun reminiscing, while going through those photos.
A few weeks ago, I re-arranged my scrapbook area and scrapbook closet. The re-arrange is making my access to my scrapbook stash easier and better. It's helped increase my desire to scrapbook and my productivity.

I just found out that I am going to/partially hosting a crop in May, so I want to be extra extra orgainzed for that, so am going to work on page kits. Right now my desk is trashed from Easter cards.

This weekend I finished up a couple of Easter sewing projects and sent them off. I am in the process of working on the Easter cards that are currently overtaking my scrap desk.

I've got some finishing up on a sketch challenge sketch, and have a big 'ole pile of unfinished pages waiting their turn to be finished.
I also want to try a monthly PL in physical pockets and not the app, but haven't even seriously made a plan for that. Too many ideas and not enough time or energy for them lol.

I need to put away all the stuff I took to the crop last weekend; put some finishing touches on, photograph & post the pages I worked on there; and then start finishing up the projects I didn't get to--mostly hockey and theme park pages.

I need more details before my imagination takes this way out and beyond... grammadee i’ve fallen in love with hockey this season! i’d love to see what you create. Hoping to get the birthday LO's posted today. The hockey pages I finished at the crop will be next. But I still have several hockey LO's to put together before I can say my Winter 23/24 album is complete. |

I exclusively scrapbook & don't create special projects (e.g. October/December Daily, Day/Week in the Life), so I'm always working on layouts (theoretically, since I'm both left-brained/creative-challenged & a S-L-O-W scrapper).

I moved my large standing scrap table out of Scrap Corner and into the garage (I sometimes need to sit and no chair in the house worked with the height of that table), and replaced it with a smaller table (to hold my die cut machine, typewriter, and sewing machine when I'm not using them) I have a different desk I sit at when scrapping. Moving that table involved clearing out space in the garage and moving half my scrap stuff... if you give a mouse a cookie  Hopefully now that that is done, I can get back to making pages. I am working on a monthly recap page for the "should scrap this but it don't need an entire page" stories this year, and have March done except the journaling in case something else happens that should go on there in the next six days. So exciting... |

I've mostly been working in my Happy Planner which I use to document everyday stuff. This is my first HP and the vertical grid, and so far really loving it. I used to use the Heidi Swap Blur books, did a few of them, then didn't do as much in 2023 and wanted to do it again. This type of weekly documenting is my favorite and captures all the here and now things.
Other than that, always working thru a pile of 12x12 LO kits I prepped for last year's crop.
I have some other mini albums I would like to get to/back to, but I just finished a few of those projects and needed a break!
So far, this year has been super prolific scrapping time for me...I've been following along on Calvinball with Scrap Happy community too. But going into Spring/Summer I usually do a lot less, so we'll see how it goes...

My energy is finally coming back. My asthma from Covid then the upper respiratory infection has rewlly made me tired. Simple tasks wipe me out or cause an attack.
I finished an October/Halloween 9x12 pocket page for ds's album. I used 5 photos and 4 cards. I think I need to note that on the point page.
My area needs a good dusting and vacuuming so going to do that in a bit. Just had breakfast and my meds.

I'm finishing up some Spring cards. I also have bought quite a few new things in the past month between the recent Expo and some online shopping so my desk is overflowing with new products. I started organizing that last night and hope to finish today. I was able to find some bowling themed embellishments at the Expo so I want to scrapbook my family's bowling day pics this week too.

I just finished and mail 30 Easter cards that involved die-cutting and then glittering. So I cleaned that up this morning. I am at a stand still with my December Daily. I am on Day 20 and my photo printer wont print anymore and I am upset. I will probably edit and send the remaining photos to be printed this afternoon so I can work on this tomorrow.

I am all over the place with scrapbooking. I'm working on finishing my grandson's hockey season, plus scrapbooking some vintage photos from my childhood. Yes, I am vintage!
I'm enjoying extra free time, since my grandson is away on spring break.

I got the rest of the Distress Color Pencil collection so I'm working on making a watercolor palette.
I have my Denver 2021 album on my desk.
I have been working through all the photos I took in 2023 as it has been some time since I did a photo order. And I want something new and fun to play with.

Right now I'm working on a scrapbook-adjacent project - I have a 9x12x2 ish box full of photos - a mish mash of 1930s through 2019 (at least so far) - that I'm labelling and sorting and making sure have been scanned (99% have)

And cleaning is done. I haven't had issues with my asthma since summer 2019. And before then my asthma was well controlled. But these two illnesses have really messed that up. So frustrating to have to continually take brakes. But it is done! And I might start crafting tonight.

Every now and then I will open up my latest PL page, but I'm just not inspired. I just sit and stare at it, move a couple of photos around, then close it down.
