March Challenge

[TonyS20]

I think I'm doing this right. I haven't won the challenge before, so someone can step in and correct me or add additional information.

I haven't given much thought to what the prize will be this month, but the package will include:

some very cool Disney and assorted paper
some stickers and die cuts (Disney related)
other cool and interesting things that I find this month!

Who wants to play this month??

Good luck to everyone!

 

[ToDisney]

I'm in! Congrats on your win!!

 

[Franne]

I'm going to give it a try this month! Going to a whole day crop next weekend, should be able to get alot done!
So, count me in!

Me! I scrapped all day yesterday and plan on scrapping all day today.

I'm finding the more I'm learning about scrapping the longer it's taking me to do a page. A 2-page layout would take me about 2 hours to complete. An hour for each page. That hour per-page has increased to 2 sometimes 3 hours. I thought the more you learned about a hobby or craft the easier it becomes, and you pick up speed as you learn.

Granted I'm doing more free-hand embellishments and more of my own art, and using less stickers. Somehow 6 hours for a 2-page layout, just seems too long. At this rate it take me a year to do a simple vacation album.

6-hours work = 2 pages.

I'm in again. Going out scraping today so I'm hopping to get alot done.

 

[pattyT]

I'm in but again I will probably not get as much done as I like!
This pregnancy thing and building a house thing is really eating up my scrappin time - lol!

 

[WDWMom]

I am in, but I doubt I'll get much done. With one week in WDW and the rest of this week to pack, that does not leave a lot of time to scrap. But at least I'll have lots of pictures to scrap when I get home.

I did 4 pages last night during out troop meeting. Only because I had pre-planned these layouts while students were taking a test a couple of weeks ago so they went together pretty fast.

The rest of this week and probably some of next I will still be sewing for Cinderella and the the week of the 15th is performance week. So I probably won't get too much done. But we'll see~

It is fun to play anyway~

I am in. I know I will get at least 2 pages done, because of the page swap. I am beginning to think I am just a collector of SB supplies. Maybe this will encourage me.

 

[PigletsPal]

Well I'm back from scrapping and got 16 pages done. I'm tired as could be, but happy with the results.

 

[pjlla]

I'm in.... been working hard today, but only have four incomplete pages to show for it!..................P

 

[Mamu]

Scrapping away, 3 more pages done.

 

[pattyT]

I got 4 pages done last night during AI and after the kiddo's went to bed!
Felt good to finally get some DONE (usually I say - oh its too plain and put it aside til later when I feel 'inspired')

 

[nicki dahling]

I'm in too! I made a goal for this month. I really need to stick to my diet so, whenever I feel hungry I'm going to and scrap instead. Do you think it will work?

[Mamu]

Tina good luck with the diet. A word of advice scrap as far away from food as possible, out of sight, out of mind. If you do scrap in the kitchen (even though I have a craft room downstairs, I sometimes like to scrap in the kitchen) Have the table full of supplies, which isn't hard to do.

I completed 4 more pages yesterday. Total: 18 hours of scrapping has produced 8 pages. Thats 1 hour 24 minutes per page. Trying to keep track of how much time it's taking me to scrap.

Better then figuring out how much a page is costing. I really don't think I would want to know. Besides if DH ask I can answer I don't know, not much. Considering my much's and his much's aren't even in the same ballpark.

 

[nicki dahling]

I'm up to 10 pages now.

[nicki dahling]

Finished two more. Up to 12! This is a biggie for me. I had started to get bogged down in enhancing my pages so much that I was getting very little actual work done. Not to mention how much I was spending on supplies. Becoming a CMC has made me sit down and actually get some pages ( and journaling ) done. I feel like I am accomplishing something. I'm still enhancing , but my work is a lot less complicated.
