ACOT Message Board

I just finished prepping my second workshop for my Sat. classes at the lss. Hopefully things will slow down for a while now so I can scrap my little fingers to the bone! And you?

I am working on pics of my weekend trip to Chicago with my hubby!

I'm skipping around a bit. Got a doggie album and a Thanksgiving album that spans from 2000 to 2009. I also need to get started on a mini album that I want to make for my dad for Father's Day.

I'm all over the place! Wedding and travel albums, pics of DD and DS, plus various cards

My niece's wedding is this weekend so you know what that mean...........I will be taking lots of picutres to scrap. Her bday is in October so I thought this would be a nice gift for her. For her wedding gift I made an album of her and her fiance since they got together back in 2009. I gave it to her last weekend and she cried. She can't stop looking at it.

Took a half day today but just getting home now!! Had a bunch of errands to do on my way home. My intention is to finish a baby book tonight for a work shower tomorrow...twins one of each! Any ideas???? I have a ways to go It will be a late night.

My scrapping projects this week is a reveal for a CT, getting started on another CT, and hopefully getting started on challenges too. I can't believe this much of June is already gone and I don't even have ideas of what I'm doing yet (it also doesn't help that June is really busy in our family). But a house project we're working on this week will cut into my scrapping time a bit...hopefully I can find some time to get some pages done.

Working on my next reveal!

I am putting the finishing touches on a layout of my granddaughter.

At this moment or in general? LOL I have taken on the lofty goal of figuring out which albums are "unfinished" and finishing them. I'm also trying to get all my finished albums strategically placed so that there's a chance someday someone will pick one up. I just decorated my book case with mini-albums that were hiding in a cabinet. I made a huge flip chart list of albums that need to be finished and what they need, I'm putting it on the back of my scraprook door so when I lock myself in there I'll see what needs to be done.

I'm making cards for Quincie's teacher's end of year present.

haven't started it yet, but I've got pics printed and papers & embellies lined up for the Rangers vs Indians "sweep" this past week. Unfortunately, this week they're being beat by the Detroits Tigers (2 out of 3 games so far; tonight's the 3rd).

For the month I've finished one card and one layout yet to be posted. Having to get the desktop loaded with programs to get them online. I've a title to put on one of the challenges and that layout will be done. I just finished five minutes ago pulling the papers for my niece's birthday photos. Page Maps sketch on their blog right now inspired me to feel comfortable with four photos. And it popped in my head an idea for the Heritage Challenge this month while I was cleaning up scrappy space this afternoon.

While I'm typing this I'm working on research to write up 12 classes for Houston Livestock Show (Lowline Angus Show). Six of those classes will be the first ever of their type at a major livestock show in the nation. Talk about really really excited! And no I can't go more into it then that until those classes are approved by the show. I just love the diversity of my little black cattle!

Trying to find the right photos for a LO using my new Stella and Rose.
I usually have the photo and then find the papers. This time I'm doing it backwards and it's a lot tougher.

Just finished some layouts for the LSS, and tonight I hope to work on my daughter's "braces" page!

I'm still working on last week's Wild Card Wednesday layout. Had issues last night and didn't finish. Now I'm sitting at Ballet rehearsal digi scrapping!

I'm working on some of the challenges for this month. I have my pictures and papers picked out and now I just need to come up with the layouts.

How wonderful!

I cleaned off my desk to scrap, but the mojo is just not here. Yesterday I read/viewed Jess's tutorial and felt excited about making flowers, but I didn't. Not sure what is wrong with me--very depressed and no energy. My FILaw, a man I love dearly, has a distant relative living with him to help with chores (2 years now). We recently discovered that she brought him to the bank, had him sign his trusts over to her; this month he donated his house and land to her. My bilaw read it in local paper. We've had the state involved, but we decided yesterday to give up. He is 86 and brainwashed completely. Lady from state says he admitted giving this woman the house and land. so sad for his 2 sons (devoted sons) and gd, my Ashley. I need prayers.
