Am I crazy? Maybe. This is the current state of my scrap corner:
But my fingers are itching to make something. And Jimmy and the bigs are out of town. That means it's just me and the babies. And yes, I adore them...but they take long naps.
And go to bed at 6:30. And it's quiet here...and I'm a little bit lonely. Wahhh wahhhhhhhhhhhhhh. Hahaha.
So how about a little online crop? I haven't thought it out yet,you know...being a fly-and-scrap-by-the-seat-of-my-pants kind of girl. :)
Let's make it simple. Make a page today and share it in the comments by tomorrow evening. I will draw a name (or two) tuesday morning and send you some goodies.
And can you comment if you plan on playing along? I will be keeping a running dialogue on My Facebook Page...I might issue a challenge or two there too, so make sure you are following.
So...are you in? Or are you out? And yes, I am saying that in a German accent.
ETA: Add your projects (layout,card,tag,project life,altered item...anything goes) to the in links tool below!
xoxo

Your scrap space looks just slightly better than mine. But I'm itching too! The front rooms (living room/scraproom) are the only rooms left to unpack, so if I actually find my adhesive, paper, photos, and paper trimmer today - I'm IN! :D
Posted by: Ally | 08/19/2012 at 07:55 AM

Posted by: Sarah Swann | 08/19/2012 at 10:52 AM
I've finally been inspired to scrap again so I made this this morning: http://www.studiocalico.com/galleries/67578-school-fashion. First LO in 2 months I think! Of course I've got a Girl Scout swim party this afternoon to host so I don't see much more cropping going on here but it was fun to play again. Think I've got my mojo back!
Posted by: Robin | 08/19/2012 at 11:45 AM
oops--missed the link tool--going to fix that now!
Posted by: Robin | 08/19/2012 at 11:47 AM

Your scrap room looks like my craft corner in the lounge room still have boxes to unpack from our move too! Don't know that they will get unpacked anytime soon, with bub due in a couple of days and Miss 2 that thinks she owns the whole house lol....might have to make an effort though so I can get back into scrapbooking soon it has been at least 6 months since I did a page!Enjoy your crop :)
Posted by: MariaC | 08/19/2012 at 04:41 PM
I posted my comment earlier but I don't see it. I will be playing along too!! :) :)

I will try to play along. Always love a little challenge!
Posted by: Kristen S | 08/19/2012 at 06:07 PM
I'm playing along - all my "chores" are done and I think I can handle a tag and hopefully more! I don't know why I never think to make tags - so handy to have all done! Thanks for the inspiration!
Posted by: KarenP (kphike) | 08/19/2012 at 06:41 PM
Thanks for the push, Stephanie! I finished two layouts and might get another one done.
Posted by: Heather T. | 08/19/2012 at 07:18 PM
How fun this sounds! I just went to a crop yesterday and got some pages done, remember you inspired me to only use a few things that you had on hand last week. Well, that's what I did and it was so much fun, just quick and easy no stressing pages about our summer.
Wish I had seen this earlier, look how many links you got already, WAY TO GO LADIES!! Will see if I can do a little something tonight or tommorow and link up.
Have fun with those cute chubby girls of yours, love the pictures in the previous post. I could just eat them up and they aren't even mine.
How sad that your girls go to bed so early and you can scrap away, haha what a treat for you!
Posted by: dawn | 08/19/2012 at 07:42 PM
Oh, I didn't get this until 9 at night, but I was cropping along by kismet anyway.
Posted by: Debbie | 08/19/2012 at 08:38 PM
So glad I found the time to play along! Such fun!! Thanks!
Posted by: Stephanie Eaken | 08/19/2012 at 08:44 PM
How fun! I saw the tag challenge on Facebook, so I made a tag to be used on a birthday card for my dad. Thanks!
Posted by: Cristina | 08/19/2012 at 09:04 PM
Joining in!
Posted by: Debra williams | 08/19/2012 at 09:56 PM
I'd love to play along, but I just made a layout on Friday night and may have filled my monthly quota haha. Let's see if I can churn out another one, even if I miss the deadline it'd be fun.
