So, are you planning what you are going to be working on yet? It's never too early to start doing that, you know! If you are one who wants to get lots of pages done, you can pick out your paper and everything you need to finish that page and stack it together. And then gather just the tools you need to work on those. How efficient! I saw someone get 60 pages done on those 4 days! I was SO impressed!
But if you are one who really likes the social aspect of a retreat, you may want to plan and pack a little lighter! Take some cards or a special project. At least that way, you will feel like you got something accomplished!
CROP CASH OPPORTUNITY!
Leave a comment and tell what your plans are. Don't worry, no one is going to hold you to it! It's just a way to earn $200 in CROP CASH!! Plus you might motivate someone else!
Have a great Monday!

I am so ready, but not my supplies. I hope to get some of my kits done that have been in my bag for over a year and maybe a few sports pages. Just wanna have fun.
ReplyDeleteI'm going to make cards and scrapbook pages to enter in the Ozark Empire Fair! And I don't know what else. - Suzy
ReplyDeleteI actually got my stuff out over the weekend to organize and figure out what I want to do at the retreat. I plan to work on my granddaughter's first year album (she turned one last November and I have 2 pages in her album!:( I also want to get my grandson's 3 year album done since he turned 4 in February! I have so many other things I would like to do but won't have time although while digging through my stuff over the weekend, I managed to get a 2-page LO done!
ReplyDeleteMy plans are to complete some of the "Work Shops On the Go" that I have stacked up in my scrap room. And, to use the cricut and make some pages that I have lifted ideas from other places. Hope to accomplish a lot, but 60 pages would be a real stretch.

My goal is to get 10 pages done-I hope to get my stuff out this weekend and make me some packets to work on! I like to be organized but I also want to have fun! I am starting to count the days! Rita M.
ReplyDeleteThis is along the same line I have been thinking...However, I just have to get busy and get it all organized. I have lots of grandchildren pages to catch up on. So, I am hoping I can get that done. Sometimes the socializing gets in my way. LOL Whatever I accomplish, I am planning to have lots of FUN and Cow Bell!!
ReplyDeleteLavon
I am planning on doing some of my workshops on the go packets and get a jump start on my calendars. :) I hope to get a lot done.
ReplyDeleteMiranda
WOW! You guys are on the ball! I'm so glad to see you are already planning! And, I'm so glad to see so many responses! I gotta go print more CROP CASH!!!
ReplyDeleteGet the printing presses going on that Crop Cash. We are going to break the bank!!!
ReplyDeleteLavon
I'm working on kits, kits and more kits. My goal is to get at least 50 kits done - maybe with pictures on them... :) -Tysha
ReplyDeleteI need to work on a baby album for a friend who is due in May but I really want to work on vacation pics from this last summer. I'm slow so I know I can't do both. ~Jen H.
ReplyDeleteI always have big plans of getting everything together but I will probably do like always and just throw everything together at the last minute. You know I am such a social butterfly that I may not get much done. ha ha Lyla
ReplyDeleteIDEALLY, these first couple of weeks of March I'm hoping to get organized at home, order supplies then start printing pictures/planning layouts/stacking like you talked about and start scrapping in April/getting as much done at the retreat as possible...of course w/lots of laughing and story telling in there, too! :) And plan to take a break an get some Spring shopping in at the mall when my ankles start to swell from sitting too long! HA! REALISTICALLY, gonna have fun!
ReplyDeleteI am hoping to get many, many pages done for my Italy and Mediterranean cruise trip that we took last June. I think that's all I will work on, but considering I printed 200 pictures, that will be PLENTY! Looking forward to seeing everyone!
ReplyDeleteI am planning on getting LOTS AND LOTS of pages done BUT I am also planning on spending some down time with my friends, laughing, and just relaxing! So, whatever happens...HAPPENS! I have been making a plan of attack by beginning to take a look at some supplies that I am going to be needing (cardstock, cat eyes, pages, ....) I may try to catch a nap or two as well since I am a late scrapper! :-) CANNOT wait! Getting maore excited everyday!
ReplyDeleteI haven't even began to get anything ready yet, as I've never done anything like this before. But I'm pretty sure I'm going to work on my Graceland pictures and maybe my Princess pictures (meaning my baby, Lucy, who is my Cocker Spaniel).
ReplyDeleteI keep telling myself that I'm going to get my pictures and paper all organized, that way I can get a lot done. But I am known to put things off until the last minute. I'm really hoping to get at least 10 pages done, and I'm sure I will be socializing alot. Ready to have lots of FUN!!!!

I plan to get some scrapbook pages done and make some cards. I hope to pull some of it together ahead of time so I can get more accomplished at the retreat. Debbie G.
ReplyDeleteWOW! I'm saying you all are ready for this reatreat!!! Can you believe we are now under 6 weeks away! That's getting close. And it sounds like you ALL are making plans. (or do you just want CROP CASH?)tehehe!
ReplyDeleteI've heard from about half of the group. Now, I just need to hear from the other half! So, if you know of someone coming who hasn't made a comment here, give em a call! Shake em up! We need everyone involved!
Keep watching for more CROP CASH OPPORTUNITY!
I'm going to try and get some page layouts together and I'm going to work on some cards. That's my plan right now...but it will probably change :)
ReplyDeleteWELL I thought I posted a comment, but don't see it so will try again...My plan is to work on my Mexican cruise album, it was a scrapping retreat also. Now you all know how much I got done on that cruise. Way too much to see and do. Also plan to bring some material for cards just in case I get bored. Looking forward to meeting all of you.
ReplyDeleteHi Janis!
ReplyDeleteI have been going through photos to get inspired for what to work on that weekend. WHEW!!!! Digital sure does back up the photos--I have a LOT to choose from. I am hoping to take some time this next month to organize my stash and bring just what I need/want to work on, but like Dana & Keli I'm not going to worry about how much I get done, but rather enjoy my time laughing, scrapping, shopping & eating with friends.
I am going to put pictures on all the pages I have complete, I need to work on page kits for my website, I need to scrap Christmas pictures they are breeding in my drawer. My actually start scrapping some Baby pictures of my children. Who knows really just coming for the food and conversation. lol
ReplyDeleteI have been looking at my pictures and trying to decide which one I need to print off. I have a lot of pictures I would love to do pages. But my first two pages to get done is Vickie's birthday pages!! I do have a notebook that I put down ideas for a page lay out. But I just look forward to spending time with my favorite cousins. LOL
ReplyDeleteChastity
Not exactly sure what I will be working on, but probably doing some pages with some family heritage pictures.
ReplyDeleteJulie
Well, I'd LOVE to get some real work done, but having to fetch and carry for you like I do... sigh... I'll probably just be lucky to get my glue out... sigh....
ReplyDeleteBut if I DID get the chance to do something, I'd like to do one of those Workshops on the Go kids (gotta get it ordered!) and maybe some more on the scrapbook I started in Heit's Point. :D
Ha! I meant to say "kits"! —kim
ReplyDeleteI'm hoping to get some pages done from my Hawaii trip last year and also from our one snow day this year, but I'm not organized yet, but plan to get that way, if I can work less than 65hours a week at our store...
ReplyDeleteTammie Dawn
Oh, Kim! You poor thing! That COWBELL really wears a gal out, doesn't it!!! I've gotta go pack it right now!
ReplyDeleteI am starting to work on an altered cookbook project and i also want to scrap some of my picutres that my mom has given me from when I was younng - so looking forward to this - thanks for everything Janis
ReplyDeleteTammy
We have a Tammy and a Tammie. I'm seeing some major confusion heading my way! I'll just "I'm sorry!" right now and get it over with!!!
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like everyone, so far, has a definate plan. I just got back from a retreat, plan to keep most stuff packed until Janis' retreat next month. I didn't get as many pages completed as I had hoped.
ReplyDeleteI have to print some pictures of a trip to St. Louis with my cousin and may also print our Disney World photos from 2006. I'm a little behind with my scrapbooking.
In case anyone else has to print digital photos, they're on sale until 3/13 at Walgreens for 10 cents if you buy 50 or more.

ReplyDeleteRebecca
I need to make cards this time. Just looking forward to a chance to play with all my stuff!
ReplyDeletelol! I don't know if there is a time limit on this blogging...but I thought the scrapbooking of cookbook/recipes was a great idea! My mother is gone, and her handwritten cookbook basically disappeared, but the few that I have in her handwritting I'm thinking that's a terrific idea!
ReplyDeleteI've had so much happen this past year..I'll probably do a page or two in several different areas. And, hopefully learn how to use my cricut!
