Count down to New Year . . .

I've gotten some stuff done today - ok maybe not a lot. I got a coffee mug yesterday that has a picture of a guy in a hammock with the statement "I intend to do very little today and so far I'm on schedule". I thought I would give the idea a try. :) 

I did get another 2 page layout started today but couldn't finish cause I need a couple of pieces of cardstock. It's a cookout layout.  I've got to go to the store tomorrow so I'll pick up the cardstock then.

I did start working on another layout and got it almost done. It only needs a title but I don't know what I want. I used a Scrapbook Generations sketch again and paper pad. This layout I'll use for June. 

 



 

I used the Cricut Cartridge Elegant Edges for the scalloped die cut on the left. It is a great cartridge. A lot of versatility. I already have ideas running around in my head for other projects to use it on.  My daughter Laura loaned me her Epiphany Crafts epoxy round punch for the three embellishments that I put on the right page. Love that punch. 

 



I'm going to change the die cut I've put on the left page. I'm not thrilled with how it looks. I'm going to redo the top scallop die cut but without the holes in it. I think it will look better. I'll post a picture when I've changed the layout. Probably not until tomorrow. It's getting late and I'm trying not to get into the habit of staying up late.

 

I'm going to set the goal to complete one layout a week. I've been looking for a scrapbook challenge website but haven't found any yet. I would like to participate in a challenge with others to help motivate me. I'll keep looking I know there one out there somewhere.
