Some new layouts from me for credits check out my gallery http://www.sweetshoppecommunity.com/gallery/showgallery.php?cat=500&ppuser=133

I completed the last page for my book. I was one page short so I had to make one more so there were no blank pages. I did a standard year in review page for it and then I put the cover & back page layouts together. The tricky part was coming up with 24 more photos that were not already in the book. I know, I know…how could that be tricky with all those photos. Yet somehow… finding photos that were not variations on the existing 365 photos was a challenge. Which tells me that even my ‘regular’ photography was pretty much 365 driven. I’ll be interested to see how many photos I have at the end of this year without 365 prompting me. Oh, and yesterday? I went grocery shopping & took two photos of my full cart with my camera phone before I remembered I am not doing that this year. The back cover The front cover The last page Next up, finish the missing JYC pages, finish editing Oct & Nov photos & get them uploaded & then copy everything to my EHD a...

I’m still way behind. I have prompts 6, 10, 12, 14-18, and 26-29 still to do but I am getting caught up slowly but I do finally have more layouts done than undone

Some more layouts. I have 13 out of 14 done. I’m waiting on some photos for a couple more.

I’ve been busy this week. I scrapped 16 layouts! 16 layouts people! That more than I scrapped in all of November & October combined! 13 of them were 365 layouts. Here are some of them And some of them were actually Journal Your Christmas layouts! I now have 7.65 layouts done out of 17 prompts. Woohoo! and here is the updated Day 5 with the newest advent items

Ok, so we are up to what? Prompt 13 I think today? And I have what? 4.35 layouts done? That is further behind than I intended to be by this point. I sat down at this computer Saturday morning determined to use Rinda’s suggestion about prompt 9 and then do prompt 11 because I know exactly what I want it to be. Plus I‘d have time to tackle the boys about prompt 4 & at least get it started. Then I figured Sunday I’d work on prompt 10 & whatever prompt 12 was. I ended up doing 3 complete layouts and have 8 others in various stages of completion from 50% to 90%. But none of them were Journal Your Christmas layouts. I sat down intending to them. Really I did. But then…the spirit moved me…and one thing I have learned is that if the spirit has a topic in mind there is no use trying to channel it to another topic, just go with it. The spirit moved me to get caught up on my 365 Project layouts and since I last did a few back in April I had a lot of catching up to do. I am d...

I’m behind as usual, but not as behind as I could be. I’m still waiting on some weather besides ‘cold’ for prompt 2, though I am inclined to start a layout for it because it doesn’t look like much else is coming our way anytime soon. Prompt 4 is still hanging out there waiting for inspiration. I had a great idea for prompt 6 last night, but failed to make a note of it and now can’t recall what it was. My idea for prompt 9 requires input from the boys & getting them to focus on non-Pokemon things is a challenge, unless it’s Star Wars Monopoly, their new favorite game. I’ve covered prompt 10 fairly well in my past 2 albums so I’m considering the other suggestions & have a half page done about how I procrastinate wrapping because I really don’t enjoy it. But having done a page on how I don’t sent out cards because they stress me out I worry about this becoming a “Why I don’t like the holidays” album, so I am not sure about that page. Here are two I have completed P...

I’ve only managed 2.25 pages so far. Prompts 4 and 6 are not coming into focus and I am waiting for there to be some weather besides ‘cold’, which is impossible to photograph, to do the second. Here are prompts 1 & 3 The .25 of a layout  is from prompt 5. This is the first year we have been able to have a non-Lego City theme calendar. I’ve decided to take a photo of every item in this years one.  So this layout can’t be completed until late on the 24th. Our tree is up and Elvin brought us our new ornaments this morning. Look for a post gushing about my beloved ornaments soon.

I’ve had a hard time scrapping much since school got out, what with DH not being home much & the boys underfoot constantly & then going on vacation twice. But this week I was able to sit down and get some work done. For complete credits & more layouts please visit my gallery at SSD .

I didn’t do much scrapping in May. I lacked time & motivation but I am getting back into it this month. Here are some of the layouts I have done so far: We set up the pool   My then current book pile   This was based on my yogurt post   This was for a challenge to use roygbiv in a layout
