What's new

Soooooooooo .... are you up-to-date with the challenges?

I'm three behind. Work just keeps getting in the way! I'm trying to keep things simple, I just wish it didn't take me so darn long to scrap. Sometimes it comes to me real easy, but other times I have to work on it awhile. But I'm determined to do it again this year! It's such a great feeling of accomplishment. And I just love this hobby. :)

AND I need to go back and re-read the instructions because I think I might have mis-read them ...

I resemble this remark... I read your instruction on Day 1 probably 50 times, lol!
 
Surprisingly I'm up to date and see that today's challenge is a Fiddle-Dee-Dee template, so I'm good with that. I love templates and Cheryl's are the BEST! Yesterday's song challenge knocked me off track for a bit. I even forgot to put the roast in the crockpot for French Dip, because I was stewing about what the challenge. But this morning I put the roast in the crockpot before I even turned on the computer. Now, I just need to remember to quit scrappin and go buy some bread for the French dip later.

I'm current... but that is because my DH is helping me! LOL! He knows it's MOC and he prods me to get on the computer a smidge earlier. Usually, I don't get on till later in the evening when the kids go to bed. When we are all relaxing, maybe watching a show, he will ask where my computer is, and what I have as a challenge. He's pretty awesome about my scrapping! Plus, he's helping me with laundry and dinners! :laundry

My boys on the other hand... well, they slow me down a little, lol! Since I start a little earlier, and as I am scrapping, they want to make a page too! :giggle

Jenn, That's so awesome that your husband is supporting you with scrapping and chores! Recently, my hubby has started to take more interest in my scrapping and has really stepped up around the house with laundry and dinners too! YAY!
 
@mrs2a50 Jenn's challenge is a tough one. I hope the re-do gives you a page you love! It stretches us as scrappers! I think for me, with yours, it was to make sure I got everything... and the details. Usually, I just scrap, and don't have to think, lol!

@keepscrappin It really is an awesome thing! We are lucky!
 
I am up to date. Hoping I can keep it up. Last year my husband broke his hip the middle of January and that was the end for me. :wineCheers! Here's to good luck for everyone!
 
I'm missing 2. The bad photo and the edit type one. They should be easy to do. I've been working on a huge photo/scrapbook project for the moms on the cheer team so that's taken up most of my brain power this week. Plus a cold and break ending!! I'll get there!!!
 
Nooooooooo. And it's totally killing me! I am swamped with pre-start of semester stuff this week and won't have any scrapping time until this weekend. I've sketched out my ideas for challenges 3-6, but I won't have time to play with them before Saturday. Hopefully, I'll get some much needed creative therapy this weekend. :)
 
I'm not caught up, but then, I rarely am. My 10 yo does ask me about it so he helps keep me on track! However, I'm not pushing myself yet...I am a procrastinator after all!

Wow, @jk703 What a wonderful husband. Mine doesn't discourage me, but he doesn't fully appreciate the value of scrapbook pages. To be fair, I don't fully appreciate the fun of battling with plastic armies (Warhammer, role playing games, etc).

This sounds like my house. He is pretty supportive but then, I put up with his "dolls" too :)
 
I'm good up to yesterday's challenge, which I honestly thought was going to put me behind, but I got an idea for that one and finished up the prior two. Have the idea already for today's template. I really try to get them started and not get more than 3 behind because I know if I do, I'll never catch up.
 
I'm one day behind. I've done two so far today. I have to get caught up as of today because I'm working a lot starting tomorrow and we're on vacation 1/23-1/31. But I have to finish. I must!
 
Considering that today is not over... Yes! I am up to date! I will upload my page when I get back home from practice. :)
 
I'm up to date with the challenges. Today was tough for me, but for a weird reason. I've been a project life scrapper for so long now that it is a HUGE challenge for me to scrap something out of chronological order. It was killing me that I didn't have any current photos to work with. I finally let go and grabbed some photos from 2010!
 
Argh! I'm three days behind but I am not working today so I hope to catch up with some hard-core scrapping this monring :giggle
 
Keep truckin', everyone! You can do it! Today's might be difficult for our journaler challenged scrappers.... holler if you need ideas! :agree I'll be scrapping my page late tonight... after soccer!
