i know it may appear that i’m super organized and efficient when it comes to my scrapping. i think that’s the way i portray things to be anyways. lol! here’s the truth … i have tons of unfinished projects laying around. just waiting for me to finish them up.
my "christmas journal" that i did in december. yes, i have 17 pages completed … which is amazing. but i had a few more pages that i wanted to finish to make it complete. and i also have all our christmas cards that we got that i want to add in some way. all papers, embellishments, etc are all stored together in this box … nice to keep everything in one place.
my "thankful album" that i did for the MM blog back in november. halfway done … but just need to add some more things i’m thankful for. once again … all products, embellishments, etc that go to this are all neatly stored in a box for easy access.
and my "faces of my day album" that i also did for the MM blog back in august last year. i only had to do a few pages to turn in … so i only have 3 of the daycare kids in there. i have the papers and cardstock all cut and ready … and notes on the photos i wanted to use for the others. lol!
and this came about after this post i did last year in may. i took tons of photos of my studio and posted them on my blog with tons of details … took me forever. and since i had the photos all done up … i decided to print them all up into little prints. then i found this 4×4 little felt album and cut 4×4 pieces of cardstock using only scraps from my stash. thought it would make a cute album. in the baggie it still sits!
i started this after doing this layout. i had the photos already … so i just printed them and thought i’d do a little 4×4 album about my favorite things. i even put them in the album … but that’s as far as i got.
another chipboard mini album. the papers and transparencies are all in there … and some painted chipboard pieces too. i don’t even know what this was going to be. i literally just had some fun papers and products that i pulled together … and was really just playing around. i had no plan yet for what it was about … whether i’d use photos or not … no plan. and yet i still have an entire box dedicated to it. lol!
i started this one ages and ages ago. it’s 5×7 chipboard pieces covered with colorful pattern papers and some of my favorite photos of all the kids. then i pulled out a bunch of cardstock frames that i’ll never use and added those in. this was going to be a chunky, chipboard album held together with metal rings. this is far as i got.
i actually loved the idea of this album. it’s an 8×8 album that i was doing of the daycare kids that we have had over the years … every single kid. i think i have about 14 of the kids already in here. i used up a ton of 8×8 cardstock that i had laying around … and then lots of fun pattern papers. super simple design … but that’s what i loved about it. each kid has a few pages … and i used up a bunch of totally random photos i had laying around. i even had extra pages ready for new kids. but i never added their names or journaling or anything.
i like the idea so much … that i also started one for just my girls. this is a years worth of photos … just random ones that were extras or ones i hadn’t scrapped. same thing … papers, cardstock, and photos are all done. just needs the extras added in.
so there you go … a peek into my unfinished scrapping world. all neatly organized and stored nicely on the shelves. i won’t even show you the unfinished layout i have laying around. lol! i don’t do that anymore … i always finish the layouts i start. but a year or so ago … i did do that kind of thing. start something and then tuck it away while i "think" about it.
so many ideas … and so little time! lol!
