MOC Catchup Support Thread

Totally doable! Cheering you on...

 

15 behind. And posting about this probably isn't helping in the creativity department IF I don't get them all done, this will be the first MOC in 5 years that I didn't complete
I should be able to get most of them done, but the ones I'm most stuck on are:
Dispersion - I'm too much of a perfectionist to just "wing it" and be happy enough to post it.
Advice to your Future Self - NO clue where to even start!
Scraplift Challenge - surprisingly, as this is usually one of my favorite challenges!

 

I was just going to work on the clip a photo right now!!

 

Oh I like this advice, just keep it simple, think of a goal you have in mind and think how you can address it and word it as advice to the future self that will be doing it. How would your future self address the problem or the goal?

 

BTW. I am so behind it's not funny!!!!

I am afraid of even checking out how many!

 

Starting to seriously run out of mojo and ideas and become overwhelmed with what I've still got to do

January 4: Change Your View (Photography Challenge)
January 5: People-less Page (Photography Challenge)
January 7: Collage-Large Number of Photos
January 12: Throwback Photo (Photography Challenge)
January 15: Filled Layout (Style Challenge)
January 18: Recipe (Random Challenge)
January 19: Clip Photo to Title/Alpha (Technique Challenge)
January 24th - Pieces of Us. (Photography Challenge)
January 29th: Creativity with Alphas (Random)
January 30th: All in a Row (technique)

I do want to finish but with 3 days left (incl a 1/2 day I’m busy) Im not sure it will get done

 

Only the last challenge to do. YAY! I have a lot still to post though.

 

Hmm I have nine left. Work 13 hours today. So that’s out....let’s see my all-nighter will be Thursday after work I guess, lol

 

am I the only one sad about doing my last page for MOC? so much so, that I can't actually start it ... that feels really silly.

 

Really struggling on how to approach the filled layout challenge.....normally more of a white space simple scrapper

 

7 to do, got ideas for most of them - filled layout and the alpha one im not sure about at the moment as I don't usually fill my layouts right up or use lots of alphas especially mixing them up, its just whether I'm a fast enough scrapper to do them all in the next oh 44 hours (if I've done the time conversion right)

 

Way to go! Does fast music help you be more productive? Sometimes that works for me (not quite Eye of the Tiger /Rocky style but similar)

 

You can do it!
I was five behind, and spent the weekend catching up. I put on a show I like, then later a 70s cartoon dvd ( it took hours to catch up!) but I did it. As soon as I posted my last catch up layout, it was after midnight, and a new challenge was posted! I left it for the next morning.

 

Well, I have 7 left... I should be able to finish I think. Depending on if I don't get stuck. I don't know why but this month has been very emotionally draining. I guess just the moving to England, leaving the dogs behind and problems at home, it's all just taken it's toll. It's been hard to push through and I've said I'm done trying about 1500 times now.

 

Keep chugging along everyone, you can do it! Read the directions, make sure you are following the guidelines, fix errors, and be positive! You can do it!

 

I'm also a mostly CS scrapper, but can venture into the "messy" sometimes (I love a splash of paint behind my photo grouping). ​

For the filled layout, pile things on, save the jpeg and then go back later and take out all the stuff. Save this for your books/albums. The alpha mix can still be clean and simple, use acrylics, wire, neutral papered alphas. I saw several in the thread that were still clean or neutral with the mixed alpha.
You can totally do this! The posted layouts don't need to be perfect, just posted on time. You can go back later and finish the page or add/take away what you need to make the layout you for your album. I learned this last year, just tossed my final 2 pages together in order to make the deadline. The one I would actually want printed, I went back and readjusted to my liking.
