( Elsabelle - stealing your words again this month) Here is our thread for sharing our scrappy goals and progress. Do you have monthly scrap goals and yearly scrap goals? Is there anything new you'd like to try? Anything you'd like to do differently? |

March I have 2 crops planned so I am going to scrap my current photos. I got a good start on them in Feb but this is the month I will get them done.
I would say I am going to get back to my project but I don't think I am going to in March so I'm not going to have it as a goal. Just being able to get back to it next month will be good enough since it is going to take me all year anyway.

We have a local photographer who takes photos of the HS football and basketball teams and a fellow mom who also takes LOTS of game photos so I have 3 years worth of sports photos on CD's that I need to make a priority of going through and printing the favorites of DS for his school album. It's really photo overload and I just have to finally deal with it. So that is my goal for March.

Thanks for starting this month's thread, Linda. This month I'd like to scrap the rest of the pictures from my last order, which would be about 9 or 10 layouts, mostly two page multi-photo layouts. That would get me to the end of my 2016 pictures! After that I'd like to redo four old layouts and then get into some miscellaneous pictures and stories if I'm feeling like an over achiever. I'm hoping to set aside one full day of scrapping and then fit in more whenever I can. |

Today starts my 4 day at home scrapbook retreat!! I am starting my 2015 (yes you read that right, I'm 2 years behind) photos for my family album. Hoping to get at least 25 pages done this month. I would be very happy with that. I got very close to that many done last month. I also need to make 3 birthday cards for my nieces and nephew. Happy scrapping everyone!!

Today starts my 4 day at home scrapbook retreat!! That sounds like my kind of retreat! If you have a minute tell us more about it. Did you cook ahead of time? Are you watching movies, listening to podcasts, or enjoying the silence? Is your family away or did you put a dead bolt on your scrap room door? Give us the goods so we can feel even more jealous. |

My goals for March:
Finish two kids' birthday card designs (24 cards)
Replenish Thinking of You cards (2 designs, 12 each)
Make 20 cards for Cards for a Cause

Make card kits for April 3 day crafty retreat
And my new favorite project, capture March's photos and memories in my CD TN. (P.S. I'm loving how February turned out.)

I'm continuing to work on my family album while I'm playing Calvinball this month. I'm going to get as much of 2014 and 2013 done as I can, and I've printed out 2012 just in case!
@nancydrew, I want a 4 day at home scrapbook retreat too!

Are you watching movies, listening to podcasts, or enjoying the silence? Is your family away or did you put a dead bolt on your scrap room door?  Give us the goods so we can feel even more jealous. I am an empty nester so it's just my hubby and me. He is crazy busy at work right now so he won't be home much at all. We normally have very simple meals so cooking isn't really a issue. And I love silence so no movies or podcasts for me. Just me and my scrapbook room for the next 4 days!! YAY ME!! 😀 |

I'm still taking care of DS30 everyday, but that should end soon. My surgery is the 14th, so I have to make sure the house, laundry, etc gets caught up and stays that way. So my only scrapbook goal for March will be to continue to try and get my scrapbook room put back together. That may be a lost cause...lol!
I made three kits last night and would LOVE to make more.
I'm really intrigued by the whole Calvinball thing...hope you all have fun doing it. Maybe next year I'll give it a try.

March Goals include a few carry over from February:
Put together some kits /projects for crop at end of March don't need many as I'm taking quite a few classes. Also need some for crop at beginning of April.
Finish putting photos I've printed into the 4 PL type albums I've started and add cards and journaling. Hoping to do some of this at my local crop this weekend.
Those 2 goals are from February.
For March:
make 3 easter cards for an order
I would like to do a lister's got list mini
Finish my layouts from the Use Your Own Product class I took last year. I have several that just need a few odds and ends and a few I need to start and complete.
If I complete my goal for the pl type albums I'd like to sort and print off another stack of photos. Maybe try and figure out the mini scanner I purchased last fall for this project!
Lots of goals and work ahead of me!

Yup, I'm doing Calvinball this month. I don't think I'll have time for anything else! Ahh... but everything you create over there can be a part of your monthly goals here! I thought I was in this thread yesterday, but being brain dead after caring for an active 4 year old for 3 days, I put my goal into the Random thread instead of here. My goal is to create a minimum of 31 additional pages (so have a total of 104 pages) by the end of March. With Calvinball egging me on, and the great challenges on this board, that should be doable. I did more than that last March, and I worked full time half the month! |

My yearly goals:
30 minutes on a crafty endeavor 5 of 7 days a week, even if it's cleaning the space.
I finished 140 layouts last year, and would like to try to at least meet that, if not exceed it.
Monthly Goals (I'm participating in CB too)
40 pages. 13 pages already complete

I've said this every month so far this year but my goal is to complete my 2016 PL. I actually printed out all the photos and put them, the date cards, and the filler cards into the album this week so I am well on the way. I have 10 double page spreads to finish along with the opening and closing pages. I know I just need to push through it so I can move on to other pages.

Just placed a print order for February photos. I had to wait because of Dr Seuss week school photos stretched into early March.
My goal for March is to try making embellishment heavy layouts.

I haven't scrapped in days. I better get my tush in gear if I want to reach my goals. Sitting here drinking tea isn't getting anything accomplished. But is sure is relaxing.  |
