Congratulations!!

[jennyL]

I've never joined the challenges but since I know I will be scrapping a book for my BIL and his fiancee for her shower at the end of the month then I will try to take part. I'm hoping this rush will get me in the grove to keep going all year long.

I'm just making sure I have this right. I just post when I have pages complete. Does it matter what size I'm working on for my count?

[pjlla]

I'm in for January.... hope I fare better than I did in December!.........P

[scraphappy92]

I am back and up and running with a vengence! 30 pages so far this month, a whole album! I decided to put all those lovely pictures I receive in Christmas cards into an album. I started with 2000 and finished up through 2004! And since 2005 are still on the fridge I consider this album to be up to date and current! The mojo is back and flowing! And I have 2 crops this month (if the weather cooperates!)

I'm in too, 1 down so far but it's a good one. Test Track, that means the 1st page of my Disney Vacation '05 album is complete!!!! I'm jealous scraphappy92, I wish I could find the time/motivation to do 30 pages so fast!!!

[wuv tigger]

I am SO, SO happy! :cool1:

[scrappinmom]

Wahoo,...going to a crop tomorrow night! I've got just a few pages in my dd6's album to finish ....then it's on to Disney'05!!!!!!!!!!!

[TN Traveler]

Count me in. I have some journaling to do and then will have several pages I can post. I am really enjoying this cruise album I'm working on. I found some really cool things on Scrapyourtrip.com that has helped me alot. ::yes:: After I finish this album, I'm going to work on my Hawaii pictures and then after that I think I'll work on our family album which will include mostly soccer pictures and all of our animals....dog, cats, cows, goats, etc!

Count me in for the challenge.. I did alot last month but slacked off since the holidays and need to get back into gear..

[PIRATEGIRL007]

Count me in. I have got to get some major scrappn done this month. I have 2 pages done so far, and if the rest of them take me 2 days to complete like these, i'll be lucky to break 10 pages for the month. :rotfl: Oh well, I guess new years resolutions were meant to be broken anyway. :teeth:

[bettyann29]

I got 2 pages done today.. woohoo.. :hyper:

[PixieDust32]

I need to get my butt back to work on my albums.

How does it work?

Thanks

[PixieDust32]

OK guys, I got 4 pages done! 2 Last night, and 2 just now! :)
Thank God.

Thanks

[bettyann29]

Got another 2 done!! woohoo.. another one bites the dust.. Down 5 so far this month, now I only have 999,999 left to go.. :rotfl2: ok .. thats an exageration but it sure feels like it.. :teeth: ..

[Honeybehr1]

I'd like to join this month as well. A little late I know. I am able to sit for longer periods of time now after my knee surgery. So I started to scrap yesterday. I have a whopping 3 pages done. :wave:

[Queenie]

Another page for me - got the Christmas Tree scrapped - whoo!

[WDWAurora]

I'm in-I've got 3 right now.

Can I just say it's sad that I'm doing our honeymoon (Disney, of course) before our wedding? hehe And it's been over 4 months since both and I'm *just* starting? I have plenty of other areas where I'm behind, but these two shouldn't be! I did get a great disney album for Christmas though and some great embellishments, so hopefully it will aid in my motivation.

[jennyL]

Ok I got one finished last night but I got lots started for more pages so I should be able to crank some more out this weekend. But what can I say one is better than none.

[scrappinmom]

Yippee!!! Went to an impromptu crop last night...& I got 16 pages done! Another crop Fridaynight....I can't wait!

[Queenie]

2 more completed tonight! Really need to spend more time doing my paper for university than scrapping this week, it's gotta be in the mail to my tutor on Saturday and I've barely begun on 1 quesion, haven't even started 2 others :( All the pretty colours of scrapping stuff on my dining room keep calling me away from my physics books! I've got the KI Memories "Wise words" Fire sheet lying near some beautiful red paper with snowflakes on it. Makes me wanna scrap but I can't find anything that works with it!!!

[wuv tigger]

for a new total of 35.

I hope to get 15 more done before the end of the month ... time will tell ::yes::

Judy

[bettyann29]

I was able to do 10 tonight!! :banana: So I've done 15 so far this month..

[bettyann29]

Worked on more scrapping today and got 5 more done.. Down 20 this month..

[TN Traveler]

Finally got some journaling done so now have a total of 20 pages done for the
month of January. Hoping to get my cruise album done this month but very busy w/work so I don't know. Will post again before too long.
Karen aka TN Traveler

[cobbler]

Update page 1. Please PM me if I did any totals wrong.

[WDWAurora]

Woohoo-up to 17 as of last night. ALL in the honeymoon album! Maybe I'll get to the wedding one soon!

[bettyann29]

Was able to get some done over the last few days... some of from my WDW book and then I started doing some of our first cruise with the kids.. I wanted to do something different and figured I can go between the 2 books.. I got another 15 done.. Im now down 35 this month.. If I keep at this rate I'll be on to another album before I know it..

[scrappinmom]

WAHOO ! i got 14 pages done Friday night at a LSS crop....then I promptly got the flu at 1am ! bleeech so no more scrappin this weekend for me!

[scraphappy92]

I am at 48 now! My Christmas album from 200-2005 is complete!!! What a great feeling to have it done! Next up is DS's autograph album from our December trip. I just ordered the pictures to take to the crop this Friday and hope to have it finished that night!

[bigsis1970]

I finally can join this thread again -- haven't been able to do that in months!! Life has just been in the scrapping way!! so anyway I got done 4 pages yesterday in my ABC album from our summer trip last year.. Michelle

[wuv tigger]

I am up to 37 pages for the month!

[scraphappy92]

I finished the autograph book last night! It was so nice to basically just have the pictures to put in since I premade the book before going! It took me about 2 hours last night but I have all 53 pictures in the book...106 pages!!! Everyone was looking at it last night and just loved the idea. One girl use to work at WDW at Rockin Rollercoaster and her husband did One Man's Dream! It was interesting talking to her.

I also got 3 pages done for DS's album! And plan to go do some more scrapping this afternoon and Sunday! Wahoo! :cool1:

[cobbler]

I am finally on the board with 6 pages. But even more important is I am DONE with my 2000 Disney vacation.

I have a goal to complete 2001, 2003, 2004 and both trips from 2005 by the time we go this year. Years 2003+ have about 300 pics for each trip so who knows. Anyway I will honeslty be happy if I can get through 2003 before I go this year.

[jennyL]

I was a scrapping fool so far this weekend. LOL I completed a 22 page brag book for my BIL and his fiancee. That brings my total to 23 for the month. Great for me since I haven't had alot of time lately to do much of anything.

[pjlla]

I've done 16 more in the past week, which puts my total at 18 for the month......P

[scrappinmom]

WAHOO! Went to a all day crop yesterday....ADD 30 ! yes THIRTY to my totals!!!!

[bettyann29]

I got another 20 pages done since I posted last.. Now Im down 50 for the month.. I'll probably stop here for the month as I have so much to do around the house and pick back up in February.. :thumbsup2

[scrappybella]

:wave2: Thanks for saying something good about a newbie. I really got slammed on this one not knowing what I was doing. I went and talked to other people on the forum and it was quite enjoyable. Thanks again.

Grandma just back from WDW. :)

[bettyann29]

You're welcome .. and welcome to the boards.. there is so much information to get here on the different disney boards..

[TN Traveler]

YAHooooo!!! I finished my cruise album!! Put me down for 6 more pages!! :banana:
Next one to start is Hawaii. :thumbsup2
Karen aka TN Traveler

[WDWAurora]

I got 4 more-a total of 23. It would be 6 more, but my Mickey/Goofy swimming stickers are falling apart and I have to repair them. Ugh.

[cobbler]

Updates on page 1

Although scrapinmom and scraphappy I am not sure if I have your totals correct.

Scrapinmom, I am not sure if I understood correctly. In your last post you said to add 30 to your totals, is that a flat 30 or is that 30 in addition to the 14 you did at the LSS crop?

Scraphappy, you last post said 3 pages in your DS album but also the autograph book of 106 pages. Is that 109 pages total in addition to the 48 total you had in the post prior??

Send me a PM and let me know and I can make adjustments if necessary.

[UGAFan0829]

Can I join in? This will be my first challenge! I have 2 albums that I need to get done...one from our Jan. 05 DCL cruise, and the other from our DCL cruise that was just a few weeks ago! :Pinkbounc

[Honeybehr1]

OK I have a total of a whopping 17 pages done. I am having such a hard time scrapping EPCOT and I have no idea why. I have looked at two peas but still cant get any inspiration. Oh well. I will trudge along

[wuv tigger]

Now I am up to 39 pages for the month! :cool1:

[pjlla]

Another 6 done yesterday, thanks to a snow day! I am up to 24 this month.......P

[scrappinmom]

This is the first time I've joined a challenge....I can't believe how motivating it is! I can't believe I've finished 60 pages this month! That is practically a record, especially for a month where Ididn't go away to a weekend crop. & I can't believe how many pages everyone else has done! I tend to do my scrappin in big chunks - 15-20 pages at a time....I need to start doing what some of you guys do....do a page or 2 a day...Anyway I just wanted to say I think we've alldone a great job!!!! & I'm probably done for the month...(leaving for Vegas on Wednesday coming home on the 30th)....so I'm ready for the feb challenge! :banana:

[Queenie]

My current total is 11!!!

[scraphappy92]

Cobbler, that was 109 pages in addition to the previous already listed. :cool1: 106 pages of it was DS's autograph album that I just put all the pictures in and can finally be counted since it is complete.

Off to a crop on Friday night too! I am packed and ready to go!

[pjpoohbear]

Can I still get in? I have done 8 pages this month, and they are my first 8 pages!

Penny

[pjlla]

Penny

All are welcome! Looks like you are on board with 8.... keep going! And even though you are starting late this month, keep up your momentum for the February challenge!...................P

[Minnie&Mickey]

I am up to 21 pages! This is the most I have ever done in a month! I finished my June 2005 Disney trip album and did 6 pages in my youngest daughter's high school book (which brings it completely up to date)! I just started working on my "ABC's of Why We Love Disney" book today.

[wuv tigger]

now up to 48 pages

:banana:

[bigsis1970]

Ok add 20 more for me -- I worked on my ABC album yesterday while my son was home sick from school!!! Michelle (grand total 24)

[pjlla]

Okay.... two more done yesterday afternoon and four done this morning. So I am up to 32 for the month! I really feel like I am finally making some progress!..........P

[wuv tigger]

I think this is a record for me! :thumbsup2

[Honeybehr1]

[scraphappy92]

[cobbler]

Updates on page 1

[pjlla]

Well... I plugged my way through 4 more yesterday, but neglected to finish the journaling before bed...so it looks like 32 will be it for me! But at least I got a great headstart on February!..............P

[Honeybehr1]

I am looking forward to February's challenge because I have finally finished doing EPCOT. It has taken me 5 weeks to complete it. It was like pulling nails. I cleaned and organized my work space to start on a new park. SH had gotten me some bins and such to organize stuff and I finally put it together. Now all I need to do is scrap my heart out.

[cobbler]
