I’m getting a little late start scrapping today. I printed out some of those page planners from SS. Thanks crystalb these are awesome for page kits! Sometimes I forget what ideas I have so these will come in super handy! I usually clean my scrap counter after each page if I’m using different supplies. It’s usually pretty messy because I go through my stash quite often and if I see things I’d like to use on a future page I set aside. I have quite a few piles going 😬 I get so distracted when I clean or organize, I love that I get excited about new page ideas lol but my stash can be overwhelming.

Remembering those uplifting text messages with coworkers I love that idea! I did a whole page on Jeremy's sweet text messages the first year we were together. But I just typed out the messages. I didn't think to screen shot them.

I'm watching a couple of YT videos and then I'll be working on some Fantasmic pictures. They're so dazzling that I'm trying to find some B side kind of papers to tone it down a bit. marg, I haven't listened yet so I don't know. The first two episodes are about Gypsy Rose and Dee Dee Blanchard.

This is usually why tidying up is required after a page lol. I like using the little corner area because everything is easy to reach I guess I better get to cleaning up so I can get back to creating!

Good Morning Peas! I'm back at it again this morning, still trying to do a half dozen pages at the same time. They're getting there though. And I'm *not* cleaning as I go. Happy Scrapping everyone If DH doesn't call me to help with any of his projects, I just might get a pajama day out of this!

Alright Peas I am turning in for the night. My desk is all cleaned off ready for an early start tomorrow morning (my sweet monsters are up by 630/7 no matter what). Thank you for joining me today and letting me be your hostess today! I have loved seeing all your creations! Remember I still have 2 gift cards up for grabs! One for the DIY kit and one for anything uploaded by midnight EST Today (Friday)! Thank you for hanging with me today, I can't wait to chat/create more tomorrow!I will leave you with this one last chat question:
Are you a clean as you go person or only clean up at the end? Do you have to have a clean work surface to get started or can you create anywhere?Thank you for being an awesome hostess! 👍 As for the question, I do tend to clean up as I go. I like to start fresh for each layout, unless I'm working on a whole event or vacation album, and then I need the whole out out to work with.

marg, I’m listening now and Dr. Phil is quite overly dramatic. I listen to a lot of true crime podcasts and have never heard one voiced so dramatically. I’m still listening, though.

I haven't scrapped yet today, though it's definitely on my mind.
I went all "if you give a mouse a cookie" after I noticed a splatter of sauce on the wall near the kitchen trash can. Now the whole downstairs is vacuumed, dusted, wiped, tidied, things put where they belong.
Today I need to take the kids to a school event held in the afternoon, then hopefully I can get some scrapping done towards the evening.
Yesterday I finally chose a couple chipboard hearts and small enamel dots to use on the layout I'm currently working on. This morning I glued them down when I first woke up.some
I'm hoping to get more done today.

Now the whole downstairs is vacuumed, dusted, wiped, tidied, things put where they belong. I would have done the same thing! I'm off to a pilates class, then plan to do some pages this afternoon. The dining room table has been claimed for the weekend and everything is set up, ready to go. I do need to take a break at some point to finish cutting out a quilt I'm trying to get pieced this month.

I picked up my corner... a little lol. I pulled the embellies for this page kit while tidying up. We have to make a grocery store run sometime today for our dinner tomorrow. With the cat being so sick yesterday we got nothing done. I detest stores, especially on the weekend. Hopefully we’ll be quick!

I finished my first page last night! I try to clean up a bit after each page but it doesn’t always happen. My office is never 100% tidy... I would say it ranges from 20%-80% tidy!

Thanks! It came from a Park Lane pp pad from Joann’s . I think it’s fabric like it’s a really pretty paper pad

What a cutie pie. I’m almost finished with my Fantasmic layout but it’s time to work out and then I’ll get back to it once I’m cleaned up.

Loving all the layouts posted -I'll come back later and comment Here's another Easter one from me - I have one more finished but the nuvos drops aren't dry yet - and one more to scrap and then all my Easter photos will be done (I don't have photos for all my childhood years - my mum has custody of most of the photos still).

all done with Easter - I'm going to take a break and sort through my Easter folder and see if there are papers/embellishments that can be trashed or donated - and then work on DD18's college album. Thank you crystalb - I wouldn't have gotten the Easter pics scrapped without your challenge. <iframe width="9.240000000000009" height="11.659999999999968" style="position: absolute; width: 9.240000000000009px; height: 11.659999999999968px; z-index: -9999; border-style: none;left: 5px; top: 62px;" id="MoatPxIOPT1_79654183" scrolling="no"></iframe> <iframe width="9.240000000000009" height="11.659999999999968" style="position: absolute; width: 9.24px; height: 11.66px; z-index: -9999; border-style: none; left: 406px; top: 62px;" id="MoatPxIOPT1_11899350" scrolling="no"></iframe> <iframe width="9.240000000000009" height="11.659999999999968" style="position: absolute; width: 9.24px; height: 11.66px; z-index: -9999; border-style: none; left: 5px; top: 582px;" id="MoatPxIOPT1_45705612" scrolling="no"></iframe> <iframe width="9.240000000000009" height="11.659999999999968" style="position: absolute; width: 9.24px; height: 11.66px; z-index: -9999; border-style: none; left: 406px; top: 582px;" id="MoatPxIOPT1_68586155" scrolling="no"></iframe>

Wow! You ladies are on fire today!! Love love love seeing everyone’s pages. We did our grocery store run so I’m going to get a couple of things finished and then I’ll be free to scrap the rest of the day. Will check in a little bit later. I’m going to find a sketch for my next page I think.

marg, I’m listening now and Dr. Phil is quite overly dramatic. I listen to a lot of true crime podcasts and have never heard one voiced so dramatically. I’m still listening, though. I’m going to need more feedback on this podcast. I listen to a ton of them and just can’t imagine Dr. Phil doing true crime well.

Two collage pages, and my first Sparkle City page. With pigeons! PIGEONS! So awesome. I can see why you were excited to get the Sparkle City pigeons. I love how many photos you were able to get in to just a few pages. all done with Easter - I'm going to take a break and sort through my Easter folder and see if there are papers/embellishments that can be trashed or donated Good for you!! I'm impressed. It must feel so good to be finished. That's my favorite feeling (even better than starting something). Will all your Easter pages go in to an album together or will they be slotted into a chronological album? I had a little time this morning and made 3 pages. Two have little parts I’m not happy with but they’re done That's the most important part. I love all the cheerful colors you've used. Are those iridescent alphas Shimelle? I loooove them (and want them for myself, even though I have no use for them!) jeremysgirl I love your pages. Love the patriotic supplies on the voting page, and a young person voting. Everyone is doing lovely work! Isn't it nice to have this little kick in the pants to get something done? Now back to it, so I can get a little bit done before lunchtime.

Hi ladies! After the movie was a walk at the duck pond on this beautiful day was just what I needed. DS & I did end up getting popcorn, but usually the bag is finished by leaving and there is at least a third left. The perils of an early morning movie. I’ve already changed into sweatpants and a tshirt. crystalb, of course, no spoilers. My alarm went off at 6 and I thought I was nuts after going to bed at midnight, but 5am up – that’s even crazier! grammadee, enjoy the crop! You are so prolific. I can’t wait to see all of your pages. angel97701, vent away. He probably knows and appreciates all you did get finished! Maybe he just needs to know so he can wrap his own head around what’s outstanding. I say this because I would need to do that. Do you already have tickets? We went to our small local theater. It was still packed. We went to the 9am because some of the other showings didn’t even have 4 seats together. When we purchased 2 days ago there were still several rows available at the 9am. Not this morning. marg, it’s not an "uh oh" moment for me - I'm kind of thinking I need to use what I have and not buy more. It’s I need to organize better or get a bigger space, at least that’s what I tell my DH. dasmith2, thanks for the reminder, I wanted to try and download those before I get too many things open on my computer. I’m completely with you on detesting stores especially on the weekends. jeremysgirl, I think it’s sweet that you made a page of text messages for your first year. The first year is always the smoochy-est. And how awesome to have those. We didn’t even have cell phones (they existed, we just didn’t own them) when DH & I got together. Love that you captured your dd’s first voting experience. Your kikipea scrap/sketch page is really pretty. I love that aqua background. Elsabelle, I hope you share those pages. I bet the fireworks show at Disney is spectacular. Linda, Love the vintage Easter layouts. Such a cute photo and your sisters little dress is adorable. Love the 1985 layout too. That little bunnies paper is adorable. 1986: adorable, with it’s pink stripes. 1975 Love the patterns on your mom’s dress and the couch. You’ve really let the photos shine and still added interest with your perfectly placed strips and matting. LavenderLayoutLady, sounds like you have gotten a lot done already. If you’re still in house cleaning mode, my home is always available. I’m not the best housekeeper. **GypsyGirl**, you are industrious – exercise, scrapbooking and quilting! craftymom101, Carter’s Balloon is gorgeous. I love the clusters and layers, and colors. KelleeM, perfection – all of them. Love the girly fairy tale paper and look to the page with it’s “fair dust” falling down on the first. Maine – oh those photos are the best. Princess. Love the story with the “it’s not easy being a princess” tag. msliz, I’m glad you claimed your craft space for the weekend. Your pages are gorgeous. I really like your collage pages. Nice job with the sparkle city. I almost bought it at the JA sale last week because of all of craftymom101’s layouts with it. Then I was like, you’ve been doing digi, you can’t buy paper. I felt really good about making that call at the time, but now I’m second guessing myself. Phew, all caught up. DH & DS just came back with fast food for lunch. So now I’m ready to do some creating. Maybe download those freebies first. I’ll be back later.

Well, I was done, joblackford posted right as I did. If I were on tap-a-talk it would have frozen the whole app and I would have had to reboot the whole phone to get the app working. I'm glad you are getting motivated. What's your weather like today?
