March Scrapping Challenge

I decided to forgo grading papers, getting stuff ready for school, cleaning the house, doing laundry... well, basically everything... to scrap some today. I got 6 more pages done, giving me 11 for the month. :Pinkbounc
 
I was able to sneak downstairs today and got a few pages done. I am up to 12 for the month. Not too bad since I was in WDW for over a week. A few that I did today just needed some journaling and titles so it was easy and fast.
 
My husband decided to work until 3am drilling, sawing, redoing our kitchen so i stayed up and got 12 pages done on Fri night. So, I am at 16 pages total. But I am still trying to recover from lack of sleep, I have been trying to come up with some new and exciting Asian type pages-anyone have a good place to look for layouts? I finally found a great one at www.scrapandtell.com-so now I can have something to look forward to making, opposed to having to be creative.

Well I should be able to do a couple of pages tonight since our troop is doing our Make-a-Wish scrap. But beyond that I didn't do anything this weekend or will I through at least next Sunday. It is a show week (aka h*** week). While it is grand fun, it means long hours (on top of work - couldn't that go away for the week) and lots of work.

Saturday night after the band festival finally was out of our way :flower: we started loading the set onto the stage. Wrapped about 11 pm and were back at it by 8 am Sunday morning. I finally headed for home around 7 pm Sunday night. At the moment I'm not sure I could make my hands, neck, or shoulders do the movements needed to scrap - all of those muscles plus a few more are screaming that I did far too much physical labor over the last two days!

Sorry to hear about your wary body Deb. Just one more week and you are done.

I just came up from the basement (sounds like I belong on the Munsters :) ). I did 3 more pages. Up to 15 now. Not working much this week so I told myself for every bathroom I clean, I can spend an hour scrapping. Well, one bathroom down, two to go. Not sure I'll get any more cleaned today. Need to go shower and then I am off to the Dr. for my yearly exam. Yuck, but it's better than going to the Dentist.
 
4 more pages done for me....my new monthly total is 10. Hoping to finish my 1st 4-page layout these week...so far, so good! :cheer2:

I'm not too sure about that!!!!! :) Okay, so maybe some times it is! :) Hope your exam went okay and hope Deb's body is back to working again :)
 
I finished one lousy page today :( But on the other hand, I am going to a crop this Friday :cool1: so I put together pictures, paper and embellishments for about 10 pages. My goal is to have DS8 caught up to the beginning of school this year. I also grabbed pictures for DD14 girl scout book. I think I have about 3 pages worth of pics for that if I finish DS8 stuff. I am also going to grab DS10 pictures and his album but I doubt I will get that far. Who knows, I will only know my neighbor I am going with so maybe I won't be so chatty.

BTW, I am now at 16 pages.
 
1 is more than I did! I think I'm giving up on the challenge this month. Just too much going on. The only scrapping I've done in a couple of weeks was 2 pages for our Make A Wish project on Monday.

Did another 5 today... Although do they count if they were in my grandmothers album? I was teaching her to scrabook today
 
As long as you did them they count. Even if she helped you select photos, etc. WOW! That must have been a unique experience to share with her. Hope you were able to glean some family history along the way.

I worked on quite a few pages Friday night at the crop I went to. Just finished some titles and journaling today. 14 more pages for me and I got DS8 caught up to the end of the summer. I feel so relieved that I am getting myself into this school year. Now I just need to work on DD and DS10 pictures.

M total is now 30. Not sure how many more I'll get done this month. My parents will be here this weekend for Easter so no more seeking to the basement. I must get my house clean for my mom.
 
I stayed up late last Friday and planned 20 pages, I got 6 done on Sat and did 15 yesterday-whew! And tomorrow is probably my last day to get anything done, not only do i have 30 coming for dinner on Sunday, but my son turns 9 on Monday and daughter turns 4 on next wednesday-Whew I am already tired! So my total is 35, I hope I can do something tomorrow as I can see the light on finishing this album.

I'm really hoping to at least finish journaling the pages I have done! Been working on the house a lot lately. I will be scrapping with the inlaws Sat., but it's an odd group project that my SIL wanted to try. Plus, I'll be the teacher, so I don't know how much I'll get done.
 
Cobbler - If I gave you some of my photos to do, would that inspire you? ;)

Sounds like you need to get to a crop (one that you're not hosting)!
 
It's not that I'm in a rut, it's that I just don't have the time to spend more than 30 mins or so at a time to work on my L/Os. Most of ya'll know I'm a home based travel agent and even though technically my office is closed at 5, I still get calls as late as 7 and 8 at night. I hate not to accept the calls b/c it's a very busy time for travel right now. So by the time I get dinner fixed, on the table, eat, get kids in tub, homework checked and kids in bed, it's 9:00. That's usually when I scrap--between 9 and 10.

So far this month I've done only 10 pages but what I've done, I'm really happy w/so I guess that says something! Hopefully I can get more time since the kids will be out of school for Spring Break starting tomorrow.
