I had been doing some cleaning in my room a few weeks ago and ran across an entire Iris box full of page kits, some completed, most just in pieces. I was determined to make these go away one way or another. This weekend I decided that since my scrapping time was so short, I was going to match up kits and pictures and see how far I got. I'm happy to say that I used up quite a number of layouts in the box, and then weeded through some other shelves (that I thought only had patterned paper, mini-album and card kits) and I found a bunch more! At least they are all in one place. And I used one page from the page swap I participated in last fall. Yay!
I scrapped pictures from 1986, a bunch from 1988 & 1993, some from 1991 and a few from 2001.
There won't be a lot more production this month, I'm going to focus on getting my sketches re-organized and getting the giant pile of layouts in albums for the rest of my scrapping time. I am really happy with my accomplishments here, can you tell?
Edited to add: the page kits were from my LSS, who in 2007 had one kit a week available, with a subscription service so you could sign up for XX amount of weeks at a time. Don't think I got all 52 layouts, but darn close!
do we count the ones for a swap?? I was wondering that since I got one of those sets done - working on another (cricut is cutting Mickey confetti at this moment)
yeah, I wont use them until next year & my sister may use them instead of me. Since I usually pre-scrap & count as I go I better go ahead & count them.
OK I just finished up my Dallas Zoo pics - did them really simply, didn't even mat the photos so I got 12 pages done up pretty quickly
cricut is still cutting Mickey confetti next page will be bigger Mickey Heads then only half pages of Blue, Red Yellow & Green - Then I'll just need the black to get to work on the swap pages
I think I do my pages a bit different than everyone else. I do the basic layout for several pages, then another day I do all the titles, and another day I do all the journaling. I have a few more pages that are mostly done but still need their finishing touches, that I hope to get completely finished this week. And then I can start another batch of pages.
I am finally on the board with 7 tonight. Tomorrow I plan to put my MIL's album together and I will see if I missed making any pages. Then it will be time to start on the album for a friend's wedding from Dec. and then I can get back to my own album from DH's graduation.
