Have to get my mojo going so I'm waiting on some of my cruise pictures to get printed. Hoping to get them soon so I can start working on some of June challenges.

You are just FULL of questions, lately! I have finished a lot of pages in the last couple of weeks. Some of them are posted HERE My next task is to put all the stuff away that I took to the crop on Saturday. I would think that the Nuvo drops would stick. They seem to stick to everything! I would practice on other stuff first though to get used to how much you need for a desired effect. Maybe color something else at random and then try some drops on that before you try them on your camera. Would love to see the end product! Loved the layouts...I have often wondered if any pea has more albums than me. I'm not claiming to do pages as nice as yours, but wondering if you have more scrapbooks than me. (I haven't counted mine in a while, but several years ago, it was about 123)

(I haven't counted mine in a while, but several years ago, it was about 123) TFL at the pages. I don't have anywhere near 123 albums, but the last few years I have been finishing one per season, or 4 per year, plus an extra book if we have a family Christmas or family reunion. Plus I do a separate album if we go on a vacation. Have done baby albums for most of the grandkids, but those I gave to their moms. Most are 12x12. Just reno'd my scraproom last year and am already running out of album storage/display space!

Went to a 12 hour crop, wooohoooo!!! It was my first this year just because of schedule conflicts.
I was in serious back pain so I only got 7 cards done, but it felt great to be with my friends and doing something crafty again!

Started a 5th grade scrapbook for my son last weekend!Used some tips from Becky Higgins on how to sort through all the school stuff and what to keep and how to document it in the scrapbooks. I'm almost done already! It went super fast once I assembled the album. I just slotted things into page protectors, cut some of his work down, tossed a lot (who needs 30 math worksheets?), and set aside some pages for journaling. Still need to finish the journaling and print a few photos and then it will be done! Last year I knew I was retiring from teaching fifth grade. I knew I wanted to make all of my kids a little scrapbook of pictures from the year. It started out as a really fun idea IN THE SUMMER! I was finishing those suckers the last week of teaching. Oy! I hope that at least a few parents appreciated them. They were filled with lots of fun events from the year and most of the pictures were 5 x 7's. Most parents can't or don't come to school when their kids are in fifth grade, so it was fun to have a full year of pictures, poems, and writings of theirs from the year. How generous of you! As a parent, I would have LOVED something like that! My son's teacher did make a slideshow and sent it home on a DVD. I thought that was awesome, but there are only a couple of photos of my son on it and I'm not sure how to print off photos from the slideshow. Still, it was nice of her to do.

Not much! I have been lurking these boards and building shopping carts online but it feels like FOREVER since I actually scrapped something! I'm supposed to get off work early tomorrow so I plan on spending my found time catching up on PL and I couldn't be looking forward to it more!

I put them there to encourage me to get something done. I go into work for four hours twice a week and work from home the other three days part time, but only have to answer emails when I get them, so I have plenty of time to scrap. Mojo has left the building.

The last scrapbook related thing I did...reading this thread.
If you count papercrafting in general, I made a thank you card and I cut some farm animals from the Cricut Create A Critter cartridge for a friend. Oh, and I purchased yet another card kit that I'm sure I just can't live without.

October 8 of this year! I've been working on it in spurts to capture my emotions at different points during our engagement and wedding planning. He will most definitely cry. I make him scrapbooks all the time for gifts and he loves them.

(I haven't counted mine in a while, but several years ago, it was about 123) That's a lot of scrapbook. I believe I have just over 40. About five of them are 8x8. the rest are 12x12 and 8.5x11, but ten are still in progress.

I didn't get my son's high school scrapbook done in time for graduation, but we did a nice tri-fold poster board together. It was nice to go through the old pictures with him and see what he remembered from the occasion or what he was doing when the picture was taken.

I finished up a scrapbook page about my daughter from the summer of 15. I have another few projects to get down before I pack up my stuff at the end of July.

I've read these boards, a ton of blogs, and spent a bunch of money on new supplies... but finally this morning I got down to business and made three "layouts" in my PL album. That's the point of all of this: the doing. I almost forgot how much fun it was!

I just finished updating my planner for this week. Added some photos, stamped a bit and did some journaling. Love how it turned out but sure wish I could be more consistent in keeping up this project.

I actually scrapped today! I got the photos down for three 2 page LOs, and I have 4 more pages planned and ready to go. I didn't get the titles and embellishments onto them yet, but they're mostly done, and they're in the page protectors. That's more than I've done in a long time, so I'm calling it a success!
