Mail Box Haul

I recently realized that I haven't scrapbooked my kids photos since 2008. I don't normally scrap chronologically so that isn't the issue. What is, is that I haven't done anything with recent photos. Therefore, I need to catch up! I know we are all always catching up and that will never change but, not to have anything from that last two years? That is crazy! So now I am on a mission to get as much done as possible in the next few months before they are out of school. This gives me 10 full weeks, 12 if we are being technical.

So to help me in my new quest, I decided to get a book of sketches from Allison Davis and Debbie Sanders at Scrapbook Generation.

The cool thing about their sketches is that they #1: have tons of two page layouts, which I love and #2: they have measurements! For everything! How neat is that! I think that this will surely cut down on my "production time" and help me get more done faster.  And since I was already shopping, I also got some new paper from My Mind's Eye (love them!) Stella & Rose Gertie and Fine & Dandy True Blue Collections.

I also added a couple of sheets I picked up this week at Michael's. I can't wait to start playing with these. They look so fun. I so love the colors. I hope to share the layouts with you that I make with these next week. This week as been a crazy week with appointments, field trips, and meetings. Next week I hope to get some breathing room & some scrapping time.

I've got 10-12 weeks before they are officially off for the Summer. I am going to challenge myself to make at least 1 two page layout a week. Shouldn't be too tough, right? So who is gonna join me? Lets play together and see if we can make a dent on our picture pile. Comment below and let me know if you are in!

See ya next week!
