2010 March Scrap Goal - SBC10Mar
Scrappin' Challenge 2010
Can you believe this is our 3rd year of Scrappin' Goal Challenge?! We sure completed an AWESOME number of pages together in 2008 & 2009 and I'm looking forward to MORE Scrap pages together in 2010! Let's keep scrappin'. It was SO fun to see everyone's goals and ideas for completing LOTS of scrapbook pages in 2010! Many had a common theme - get more pages done, use what's in our stash, meet new scrapping friends, plan time/crops... What fun we'll have sharing ideas, cheering success, keeping the motivation and making new friends. Our scrap goal isn't all about getting pages done, it's also about enjoying the process! Please feel free to join at any time! Here's the CHALLENGE. Each person will post what their scrapbook page goal is for February. We will have a better shot at meeting our yearly goal if we break it down by month. Along with the scrapbook page goal for February, if you'd like to play along with the "Using Stash Crew" decide what your scrapping budget will be for that month. *In this thread, we'll track how we do for the month. Look HERE to share and track your Annual Goals. * You choose your own scrapbook page goal and monthly spend goal. You may select 2, 3, 5, 50 pages....you choose. The idea is to be flexible so if you know you're going to be really busy, you can reduce the number one month or if you're going to a couple crops or scrap weekends, up the number. This also works for the budget. Each month, you can change your goals depending on your calendar! The whole goal of the challenge is to get lots of pages done, use more in our stash before buying new (well at least keep track) and if you want to play along w/ saving --- save $$ at the same time which becomes scrapping budget $ for next year -- or vacation money or Holiday fund! See POST #3 below for BUDGET! Are you UP for the CHALLENGE? Come and Play in the 2010 Scrapbook Challenge! Happy New Year! Here's to Meeting our Scrapping Goals & Meeting New Friends! (Pssst...in case you're interested in the "history", here's the thread that started it all 3 years ago... We'd love to "oohh" and "aahh" over your pages so please post with key word "SBC10Mar" |

March Scrappin' Budget Goals
Scrappy Sisters,
I'm SURE you will all agree that we need to go back and add in our focus on our scrapping budgets! It's a good time of the year to start as we'll all want some goals or resolutions to use more of what we have. Some of us have been using the "budget" idea since we started, others not so much. There are several ways to do this: 1. Set a $$ spending budget for the month & track your expenditures against budget set. 2. Match your scrapbook/stamping spending by putting the same amount away in savings that you spend on scrapbook/stamp stuff. This gives you extra $$ for either more scrap/stamp spending or something fun 3. Set a "Scrap to Spend" page goal. Come up with a goal to complete before you spend more $$ (for instance, "complete 25 pages before spending" 4. Do a combination or all of them! Many times scrapping and stamping supply purchases are "impulse" buys. We want to encourage not only LOTS of Pages completed but creative, productive use of our STASH. Let's see if together we can be "CREATORS" and not just "COLLECTORS". (Thanks MP ) You do NOT have to set a budget to play along with Scrappin' Goal Challenge. This is only for those of us who would like to play I will post our Scrap Budgets here...let's see if we can band together and encourage everybody to keep on goal Spending Budget Group Matching Saving/Spending Goal Group Scrap to Spend Goal Group |

March One More
May need just one more....saving :mrgreen:
|
whoo hoo!! i am so ready for march!
same goal - 10 layouts, 3 cards, 1 mini, 1 knit, 1 sewn + all that i have missed so that i'm caught up on my YTD. quite a bit to catch up from the first two months but i finally have the time to sit and scrap and craft for myself!! |
I am ready!!!
|
I hope March is more productive than February...big fat ZERO across the board for that month. My goal is 20 pages for March...
|
I'm going to keep my goal the same for March -- 10 pages. We are away for 2 weeks in March, so I think this will keep me busy.
|
I didn't do a goal for February but ended up getting bored and created 7 layouts anyway! So for March I'll put down 4 and see what happens. Still have lots of things I SHOULD be doing (iykwim?) just not as much fun as scrapping. And I'm still using stash. So far this year I've only spent $4.25 and last year I think it was under $20 for the whole year! Digi is very kind to the purse! :) especially with all the freebies available and the ability to change colors to match anything!
|
Mine is still at 4 for the month. I achieved that in February, so I think I can do it this month again. I might try to do more because April with a baby coming, I might not get much done!
|
I'm subscribing over here, but won't pick my goal until I finish out today :mrgreen:... as I might have some catching up to do....off to go put a dent in that now!
|
I've got a lot going on this month so I'm setting a low goal of 5 pages.:D
|
I made my Feb. goal barely. I thought I was 2 over, and then when I counted it up, I was actually 1 under - WTH? Sooo - I had to work today to get the last one done.
I am going to shoot for 26 pages this month to make up for the month when my scrappin supplies will be shipping to England - woot! I hope to get up to 30 done, but I've been procrastinating lately - hehe. Good luck to everyone on reaching their March goals and congrats to those who completed their Feb. goals :) |
Please put me down for 10 pages, no allowance and 5 cards. Thanks!

I did not do well with my goal for February!!! I think I was about 10 pages short so I am going to try and get those 10 pages done in March. Where does the time go??? Put me down for 10 pages and a spending goal of just the $45.00 I spend on a monthly kit.
|
I'm going big this month with a goal of 40. I am going to a 3 day scrapping/stampin retreat and the last time I went I made 42 pages in the three days. We scrapped all night and day! Hopefully I will scrap more that I chat!!!
|
I got half my goal for February...ugh!
I'm going for 25 pages in March. I've got Spring break to dedicate to crafting so maybe I can do a little catch up that week. |

GOOD MORNING! It's March 1 and am starting the month off on a good foot ;-) Gonna get the kiddos to school and then to R.A.P with my two first graders. THEN I'm gonna clean my scraproom today and scrap ALL day tomorrow...that's my plan and I'm stickin' to it!
|
Basically my goal is to shoot for one scrapbook page and one card a week. So far I'm ahead of the game. Currently my stats are 13 pages created on a goal of 8 and 9 cards on a goal of 8.
For March my goal is 5 scrapbook pages and 5 cards. These may not seem like much but I'm not including the other little altered projects that I work on throughout the month as part of my completed goal. |

Here's a dps I did for Christmas 2008 (a little behind). They're 8x8 pages:
Jaycie's Christmas '08 Happy March, everyone. Maybe soon the weather fairy will realize we're nearing spring and bring some warmer, sunny weather to my friends who've been getting hit so hard with the storms and snow. :):):) |
Can I join in?
I'm new to SCS, but I would love to join this challenge if I may. I have a few questions. Do we post layouts somewhere to show that we're keeping up with our challenge goal? If not, how do we keep others apprised of our progress? Does anyone post motivational thoughts, etc. as the month progresses? Sorry for all the questions! As I said, I'm really new to this. I did a layout a day in January, and 19 layouts in February, so I am well on my way to my yearly goal of 200 layouts, but I love the accountability of having others know my goal. I'm a consultant with CTMH, and I have been neglecting my non-CTMH supplies (I have a ton from before I became a consultant!), so I really want to use some of those products. In March, I would like to scrapbook 15 layouts using old supplies, plus 5 layouts using my CTMH stuff. Thanks. Cheryl

I passed my Feb goal but will still keep my March goal low. I will be away all March break so I will not have as much time. My goal is 2 for the month.
|
My March goal will be 10 pages and 1 altered item, using only my stash.

The gallery for the month of March to upload to is: SBC10MAR. That will put all your pages into the gallery for us all to see. Also, if there is another challenge that you are wanting to upload this same page to, you put a semi-colon after SBC10MAR; and type in the other challenge link. Clear as mud, right. |

[B]Again, welcome, Cheryl!![/B] |
Well, I didn't make my goal for February, but that's OK! I'll set my goal as 12 for March.
|
I got 11 of my 15 done in Feb and I am totally ok with that. I'm going to keep a goal of 15 for March. and if I exceed it, then GREAT! :)
|
I made my feb. goal, and my goal for March will be 31 pages, but I won't be able to start for a couple of days due to an eye injury. happy scrapping!
this post is made by tam's husband because she is not allowed to be on the computer until her eye is better. |

Oh Tam, so sorry!...here's sending get well quickly wishes your way! Hope Hubbie is checking this thread and reading it to you so you can keep up!
My goal for March will stay the same...5 LO's and 23 cards (5 of which will be Christmas cards). That is one card for every weekday. Last month I did 3 digi LO's, one paper 12x12 and 10 8x8 LO's. My question is...how to 8x8 count? Is it 2 for 1? That is how I counted them, making a total of 9 LO's...so exceeded my goal! I can't post any of the paper LO's since they are pics of my Bible Drill group over the last 14 years! Better not post OTHER peoples kids! |
Welcome!
