Mine are:
Offer fun new video tutorials on a range of paper-crafting topics, connect more with other crafters by creating stellar content and give away, and work on designing my own stamp line.

What are your goals?

My goals are to stick to a simple style, my style, and not force myself to make layouts that just aren't me. Simple, quick, with some cute clusters, and make it my "thing". I don't need to branch out, I just need to tell my stories with some photos! I'd also like to have more scheduled time in my scraproom, and to get to my local scrap store more often to support them and take a class here and there. One last goal- purge a good bit of supplies that I know I will never use in my big binders. I will be tackling that this week before it all has to be moved for new flooring installation in my scraproom. Good luck to all the peas in reaching your goals!

My goal is to get caught up. I haven't scrapped for over 4 years with the exception of my niece's wedding album last March.

my goals for the year are pretty simple too:

1) to finish purging stuff I don't use, and organizing my craft room so it's usable for the way I work (not just to 'look' good).

2) to get in the habit of cleaning up my space after I do a project, to keep the room usable. (and maybe to be able to keep the door to the room open- right now our cats could wreak havoc if they got in there, lol!)

3) to scrap on a more consistent basis than I have the past couple years. (Previously, the only time I would get any amount of scrapping done is when I went to a weekend-long retreat a couple times a year. My room at home was too messy, and had too much random 'stuff' in for me to work comfortably.)

My goals are:

1. Get into a regular photo printing habit.

This is the one part of scrapbooking that has always turned me off because I struggle with deciding which photos to print, which size and any other variables (b&w, frames, etc.). Thanks to Shimelle, though, I now fully embrace the 4x6 size and print pretty much everything, then weed afterwards. And I just recently discovered that my photo printing place of choice does a super quick printing turn-around time via post without a big charge so I'm definitely going to do that at least once a month now.

2. Scrap more often!

'Nough said.

3. Cut back on shopping and scrap my stash.

I went a bit mad with shopping end of last year but the shipping costs here are just painful (especially when shipping to Europe). I might put in an order every two months but I think that should be the limit.

I have a long list of projects/albums that I want to complete this year. So, instead of trying new techniques, I am concentrating on simplifying. So far, I am going the divided page protector/PL route and LOVE it! I finished my niece's Kindergarten album in about a week (from picking out pics, editing, ordering, journaling, and getting everything in the album .

My biggest hangup is "If I had such & such product then I could make this layout". I want to make the products I already have work instead of waiting for that perfect product to make a layout. And more importantly complete more pages this year!

To have an entire album with EVERYTHING in it from this year, and to have it ready to look at when we have our NYE get-together the end of this year.

To knit the scarf that I keep starting and stopping. It's a one-hour project that I have been working on for four years.



Happiness looks good on everyone!

I would like to get caught up with my "new" photos so that I can scrap them as I take them. This would also give me more incentive to work on my heritage books.
