Kelly (scrapinCEO) I will try to update this as you check in.
I am so excited about the participation we have had in our monthly goals gallery! We had 40 layouts in February, and 63 in January. We are on a roll! Keep scrapping. I got one over my goal last month, and hope to go far above my goal this month. Have you all heard of Calvinball? It is a fun month long challenge by Scrapping Happy, Alice Boll.
I hope to play along. What are your plans this month?
I have today off, back to work tomorrow. I just printed some pictures on my selphy so I can finish the 8.5x11 book of the Disney 2018. I will be very happy when this is done! I just need to make sure I have enough pages to fill the book. I'm not sure about all of you, but I often end up with an extra single page layout and then I need to make another one to go on the other side! I already have the last page done. I have to run to get some more page protectors too.

Sharon, Thanks for the reminder about Calvinball. I think I signed up one year and started it and got overwhelmed and didn't stick with it very long. I remember thinking the concept was fun, but I was just too busy to give it a chance. I am going to try again and get signed up today. We certainly are huge fans of the old Calvin & Hobbes comic strips!!!
I fell short for Feb goal, but hope to make up for it in March. Maybe with some Calvinball influence I will get kicked off faster and stay on track. I am getting Cagney my tripod dog from last fall returned. His adoption isn't working out because his new Mom's asthma has been really bad since they got him. I will take him back and still have Jasmine, my current foster who's page I haven't done yet. I usually wait until they get adopted before you all get to see who I have. She needs to have knee surgery and I am waiting on the specialist's schedule to open up to get that over with for her. So, we will see how much having 3 dogs in my house will cut into my scrap time this month.
happy march everyone! i only got 4 layouts done - but i prepped another 8 that are waiting for pictures so once i get those pictures in i'll catch up. just gotta remember to get the pictures in lol. made a ton of cards though, i'll definitely surpass my goal by maybe 2x or 3x for cards if i can keep it up. will look up calvinball too, sounds fun!!
same goal for march, 8 pages. i'll update my signature when i get home from running errands.
Finished my first 2 pages for March today & on Dr. Suess Day too! I've posted 2 photow, one with the flip flap closed & one with it open. For sone reason I can only link one here.
I have done at least 4 MiniScrapbooks, but I still need to put pictures in. I have been working making (24) cards for our HS Girls Ice Hockey and Basketball teams and for a University Thank You Card (25 cards total). I also made at least 11 cards in Pink Fresh studio Create and Connect. I cut out: 40 bunny boxes for Easter, 24 Fabric Easter bunnies, and 40 carrot cutlery holders. As soon as they are done I will take a picture and post.
I was able to complete 4 LO, but need to post pictures of the last 2.
Christmas Tree still on, LOL, but this week for the first time this winter we had snow.
Happy Scrapbooking!

You have been busy! I left our tree up one year through Valentines Day, But March has to be a record. You should scrap before and after photos of that! 🤪
happy snow !
Carole, just reading your list this morning made me want to either have another cup of coffee or go back to bed to rest FOR you! Ha! Wow...just Wow!
I got a couple more pages done today since I stayed home this morning decided to make good use of it. Sure feels good to get off to a good start this month. I will be busy all weekend, so this may be it for now.
Last one listed is using the sketch challenge for this week. It easily adapts for a scrapbook page.
It really is so fun to see so many people here!
Last month I got 13 pages done. I haven't made anything yet this month, but I'm hoping to get at least 10 done again this month.

Carole,
I am impressed with all you have gotten done!
I made a few pages today. It is fun to scrap non Disney pages! I set up my next craft day with friends too. And I did my favorite thing and took a nap!

I am taking advantage of a snowy day today to scrap! 12 layouts done! Once I started I wanted to finish the pages for a trip I took to Nashville in 2019. I already put them in an album. And I was able to get some pages out of my pages to go in albums box into an album! I think I’m going to work on Christmas pages next. I keep all the Christmas pages separate in Christmas albums.

Sharon,
these pages are pretty basic! I can take hours on one layout. I’ve decided that I’m not going to put pictures in albums anymore so I’m just scrapping the best ones.
I just ordered more page protectors.

Just finished this up yesterday. I always manage to find something I'm not satisfied with & this time it's the title which doesn't stand out against the dark background. I know in the end it'll all be good but I just wish I could bring my entire craftroom to Florida with me...LOL!! Maybe I'll outline the letters with a white gel pen or white marker.
Yesterday I got nine simple pages done! I hit panic mode about scrapping my daughter's life before she graduates. I mean, she has ten albums full, which are just her, but not much from her school events, and I need to focus on that. But she also has a small shoebox of photos going back at least to her being one, lol, I just gotta get 'em done! So I started with photos that have been printed a while. Today I'm going to be looking thru band and choir events to determine which to print and which to scrap digitally. So these are simple pages, haha!
I also got one more beach page done yesterday.
Here is my layout. I am playing Calvinball and it is all about the rules and points! LOL I love seeing how many of the items I can get on my layout for the points. 32 points for this one. No prizes, just inspiration and fun. Amy are you still playing? SBC23Mar Anniversary 22 sm by smadson at Splitcoaststampers
Here is the rest of the nine pages I did the other day. Eight for my daughter, one for the beach. Spring Break A Spring Break B
But then I picked up more digi pages and prints yesterday, and was able to add two more for my daughter and five more for Disney. I've shared those here already as I've finished them. Planning to do some more work this afternoon!

Yes, Sharon still playing Calvinball. Doing some of them as cards and not all of those do I upload.
Here is a page that I think gets 24 points if I counted them right just to give others an example of what is currently getting points as some things can change from day to day. There are a lot of other things that also get points I did not use as well.
2 points for layout, then one for rest: green, used sketch, chevron, pink, tree, sun rays, star, diecut, striped paper, used stamp, date, heart, washi, gold, handwriting, polka dot, title with 2 fonts, circle, cloud, 3+photos, metal embellishment, and camera.
Getting in some scrapping today on a dreary cold rainy day in Missouri. Glad I have beach pictures to work on! I am hoping to get more done, but I have to stop and find my work surface again so thought I would procrastinate that and sit and upload these since that is my least favorite part.
