My goals are to 1. create a book with all of the images from the sets I own and 2. To make cards for every occasion so that I won't have to try and make a card last minute EVERY TIME I NEED ONE!! Sheesh..

My goal is to make 40 cards (birthday, baby etc..) to give to my grandma and my hubbys grandma. They don't need or want things, so I figured cards they could give would be a good present. I have done about 10 so far.
Finish 150 swaps for Regionals in SA (3 days left)
20 thank you cards
50 Valentine Gift bags/cards
10 new designs for 2 stamp camps
Scrapbook - Finish the book for my mom of all the grandkids (15 grandkids 2 great grandkids)
My plan for February is to make a few $'s !! I work for an airline and those pilots always wait until the last minutes to get a card or something little for their wife or kids, for valentines. So I make up a bunch of candy bags with toppers and a lot of cards and I usually sell them all. So this weekend I'll be real busy - I see new stamp sets in my future :lol:
Finish 150 swaps for Regionals in SA (3 days left)
Eek! Why did ya have to remind me?
Okay, so mine are:
1. To start AND finish my swaps for SA regionals!!!
2. To FINALLY unpack my stampin' room (last room in the house!) and figure out how to properly organize my shlunk!
Even if I don't do any workshops or get any additional cards made, if I can complete these two goals this month, I'll feel like I've really accomplished something!
Denise Jimenz is SO ahead of the game! Sheeesh! I'm speechless. Don't
think I can come anywhere close to what she has accomplished for the
month of Feb. : :oops: :oops: :
Denise, you ROCK!
My goal for the month of February is to finish making valentines for my three boys for school. I'm almost there, I only have about another 20 to go!! Then, my goal is to work on some scrapbook pages that I have been neglecting lately! Can't even remember the last time I sat down to scrapbook!
You guys are not serious about finishing 140 cards here and 40 cards there..are ya?!?! :shock: Oh man, I was so proud of myself yesterday by just finishing four..:oops:..(remember that thread about the slowest stamper ever!?)..And no, I won't make any Valentine's Day cards, because it's my birthday and people should send ME cards..haha...
But my real goal for February is to put my first SU! demo order together..yay! I just signed up and I am eagerly waiting for my demo #

Okay, you ladies have big expectations! I love it! (what do you need 140 of anything for, Denise Jimenz, how many classes are you making them for? I thought I was crazy for doing sugar cookies for my daughter's class, LOL)
The swaps will be well worth the time, if your Regional is anything like some I saw and swapped for in St Louis!
I love this thread, because it has given me some good ideas; Brownee, I love the book of sets idea... and lots of motivation.
(Cajun Stamper ~ you have set yourself up for a whole lot of work... sounds like you're a demo, get yourself out the door and in front of people, everyone is wanting those SAB sets and your set samplers can wait. Don't be too hard on yourself if you don't get all that done... but please post your perpetual calendar when you do, because I have been procrastinating like crazy on mine!!)
My goals: I'm going to start on that book, pull together a couple new techniques to teach at my Workshop, make and send thankyous to my hostess' from the last 2 weeks, get a couple ahead for the next couple, create a great card for my sweet husband, and of course a few for friends... oh yikes, I better get moving, because of course I was thinking of doing up some more samples of the Bundle Up and SAB sets and Everyday flexible phrases along with some Alphabet sets to promote Tsunami Relief (thankfully, the gals at the parties are keen on that with or without samples...)
Lets go, you guys! (Lets pull up this post at the end of the month and see what we acheived!!)
Good luck,
Laurie
WOW! I wish I had the time to stamp long enough to make that many cards Of course then I would have to figure out what to do with them all!
I had not thought of setting goals for my stamping by the month, but what a wonderful idea! So here I go – Because of my crazy schedule my main goal is to set one daya week aside, most likely Sundays, to stamp all day! I need to complete a 6x6 baby shower book for my friend, make my St. Patrick's day cards, and start making myself cards to keep on hand for when ever I may need on in a hurry! Wish me luck!
I'm with Veronica on this one - just to make it through the 6 workshops that I have scheduled in February.
I've already given my husband the heads up. We are starting our own construction company this month so I hope to just still be alive by the end of this month. Anybody need a house built

Oh how sweet Heaven sounds when you have sent a loved one there.
My goal is to clean/organize my stamp room!!!! It's a mess right now. I need to buy more shelves, cabinets etc to store all my stuff!!! I would probably stamp more often if my stamp room was clean!! Actually it's a corner of the playroom!! Maybe I should kick the kid's toys out & claim the whole room for myself!! Wouldn't that be nice!!! But then I'd have to find a place for all the toys!! Oh well, looks like I'll be sharing my space with the play kitchen, play school room, hockey table after all!!!!
what I wrote before: Because of my crazy schedule my main goal is to set one daya week aside, most likely Sundays, to stamp all day!

So far so good, I have completed my St. Patrick's day cards and stared on the 6x6 baby shower book for my friend. I am waiting on some photos from another friend to wrap it up. I have even managed to get a few cards done for my stash. I haven't really had a day to stamp all day, but I am squeezing it inhere and there and it seems to be working well :lol:
My goals are to 1. create a book with all of the images from the sets I own and 2. To make cards for every occasion so that I won't have to try and make a card last minute EVERY TIME I NEED ONE!!
I need to do both of these too! I'm always putting a card together last minute.
My list which I put together as a New Years Resolution.
Stamp Sets listed alphabetically, logged in the computer- done - all 106
Stamp Sets labeled so I can read them without glasses - done - all 106
Finish Book of images- half done
110 small teacher staff valentines for school I work at - Have a Heart Elephant - done
33 kids valentines- 1/2 done
16 staff cards YMCA Office
6 family valentines fancy
2 birthday cards - done
2 swaps by Feb. 25 - both ideas ready
organize last piles in new stamp room so I quit tripping over them
3 new bookings - got one talking to someone at Walmart check out
Bulletin Board of card style ideas
Bulletin Board of cards to do
2 workshops left this month
Stamp Camp Feb 27 - 20 people 6 ideas
My goal is to stamp more often with friends. That's why I started in the first place. I love my music and my stamping hole but I want to make it a more social experience. Sometimes the cards can separate you from live people and I plan to have a few poluck stamping parties...no selling..just stamping.
Ok, I guess I can be called a collector. I HAVE to have everything but I don't stamp things that I send. I usually just do stuff as samples for my workshops and events. I think I let my 16 month old get in the way. I love to stamp, but getting started on a project takes me forever. That's why I am a CASE'r. Plus, I'm afraid that I'll use up all my cs and will be short when it comes time to do a workshop.
Having said that... what are you doing that many St. Patrick Day's cards for? Do you send them to friends and customers or do you send them to family? 140 is a lot of anything.
Ok, guess my goals are to order more CS so that I can start making more cards. Make some bookmarks to give to my church so they can sell them to make money for our new library. Make a list of people that I would like to send cards to and some kind of system to start sending cards out. Make a birthday calendar so I don't forget birthdays. Make more money than I spend.
I'm sure there is more. If I don't get done this month, there is always next month.
Oh, and make 10 Christmas cards.

I decided to get started RIGHT NOW by making my husband a bookmark that he asked for and his Valentines card. I'm really bad about making him stuff. Plus I am going to start my ideas book and my binder of all stamp sets. It would be so much easier to give someone a binder of my stamps instead of saying... well, there they are find a comfy place on the floor and look through. Then I have to reorganize everything again.

Last night I made 3 bookmarks for my DH (he actually ASKED me to make him some) and a Valentine card for him. Plus I worked on a project that I started a year and a half ago. I wanted to make card stock swatches for all my best customers. I had all the cs cut and sitting in a basket. It has been there for ever. I only cut enough for 4. Since then two of my best (that buy EVERY month) have dropped off and I have 3 new. So I still need to make a fifth one and put the labels on. But trust me, it was a long tedious job. It's 1 piece of all the cardstock we carry (48 colors, us white, vanilla, white & naturals ivory, glossy white, gold, silver and copper. Those are all the ones I have). The cs is 2x3 and last night I punched a single hole in 4 sets to put them and put them on a key ring. I got one big enough that other colors can be addes. Next I need to get some little labels and I am going to label them with each color. I'm giving them to my stampers club members as gifts (hope none of them read this ) That is a lot for me to accomplish. I'm a procrastinator.
