Ok, so we have probably discussed this before, but my feeble ole mind has erased it from my data base...HELP!!!!! How do y'all store your 12 x 12 paper?! I have these amazing deep drawers that I was sooooo excited about using for my paper and when I stuck some in yesterday it turns out they are exactly too shallow by 1/4" UGH!!!! Any other ideas?! I want to be able to keep them A) dust free and B) I want it to be easy to use/sort through! I have so many great papers that are being neglected because I have forgotten I have them!
You have ambitious goals....scrap 6 pages and make 3 cards (plus the other stuff). I can' barely make one card in a day! Scrap pages take me a while to make. I can maybe do two if I want them to look nice.
When do you find time to cook, clean, take care of kids, grocery shop, laundry???
My goal for today is to get my butt off this couch. DH is still asleep and so is DS! I have no motivation to craft.

I keep all my 12x12 paper in here. You can get them at Michael's and Hobby Lobby with a coupon. They also put them on sale all the time.
I have one for all things Basic Grey.
The other is solid CS. I sort by color. Red/pink, blues/purples, greens, orange/yellows, black/brown, white/Ivory
These are awesome!! I have several of these (different sizes) and use them a lot! I use the deeper drawers for my paper, but it gets hard to shuffle to the bottom for that perfect piece that I know is down there. I am hoping if I have them displayed out in the open that it will be incentive to scrap more! We will see!
I really need to challenge myself to scrap every day or at least 3 times a week or heck at least once a week! Yikes!! I am so far behind!!! LOLOLOL

Since it is a case, you can always flip it upside down and then open it to see what is at the bottom.
I just use it for the solid CS and all my BG. I have scraps in there on the top but I am going to move the 12x12 paper and keep the scraps in the cases.

This are exactly the cases I use and I was going to tell you about this, but I never saw the rolling table for them. I have them stack in my shelf. This is an awesome way to put all my cases in one place and make more room in the shelf. I'll check it out at Michael's next time I'm there. Great idea!!!.

Hiya Carolina!!! BIG HUG!!!! I always feel like we just miss each other on here!

Spoke too soon....DS just came down stairs!
Just please clarify something to me... what is cooking and cleaning and grocery???.
What I need to do: get off my duff and go get that flippin craft room finished!!
What I want to do: make a mini album, scrap 6 pages, finish up a swap I am in, make three cards and have a hot fudge sundae!
Not looking good for me today...sigh!
I would love to start scrapbooking again. It has been sooooo long . With the Hambo DT and challenges I didn't scrap at all in months. I'm so behind but it seems I don't have any more time. I have a couple of pictures sitting in my desk looking at me saying "when are you going to paste us???", but nothing I also feel I'm loosing Mojo. I would have to check some scrapbook sketches as well, but it seems they don't work for me. Probably because the pictures I want to put in the page don't go with the sketch, I don't know. It is true, is easier with cards. I can't function without a sketch in cards

Maybe you just need to put everything else on hold and spend an afternoon scrapping!! NO distractions!! You might just find your MOJO hiding under those pictures in your window! I know with me the hardest part is getting started! Once I decide to start, sit down and get going ...look out!! I am on a roll!
So, in my scrap room I am trying to get uber organized. I would love to have every little thing in it's own container and in it's own place. I am hoping being better organized will help me to be more productive! It is harder to do than I thought though! I have about 107 different little piles started in here now! LOL HELP!!! Carolina!!! I need your organizing skills!!!

That is so true, once I start I keep going so easily. Now I feel I could scrap a little...

I feel going to Michaels right NOW and spend some money, the only problem is that Michaels is far from home and it's raining. Probably the best thing to do is stay home and start that page.
Another thing I should do is to erase my goals in my signature. I didn't update that in a while and I didn't achieve much either. I found it is a pressure looking at me every time I post something

Carolina, the sketches don't have to be followed exactly. If you have vertical pix and the sketch has horizontal so what.
Oh, for some more sketches and scrap booking related forums go to Let's Scrap. You have to join but they have a weekly sketch and an archive of sketches.

DO IT!!! DO IT!!! If you really want to spend money you could shop on line!! WooHooo!!!

I brought my laptop into my craft room!! It is almost exactly like you guys are right here with me! LOL
You know, now that you mention it, the other day I was thinking, maybe one day we can organize to get together via Skype and chat a little bit. We could set a date convenient to everyone in the group. I don't know if we would be able to see each other, but we could look for a way to be able to. Maybe not Skype, I know there is something out there we could use. That would be great!!!

If you have a computer on your laptop or PC you can see each other on Skype.
DD1 would skype us when she was away at college. It was easier for the younger siblings to chat with her than the phone.
I don't have place for my laptop except the floor in my messy living room and dining room.
The thing with buying online is that I live in Canada and they kill me with the shipping costs . Stampin Up is not bad and MFT either but when it is paper, since it is heavy, some places are sooo expensive!!!
