New Year, New Goals

Hi all!

If you are like most people, you are setting yourself goals of 2020.  I am like most people in that I am setting my goals for the year.  Like most people I set health, weight, and exercise goals for the new year.  I also set crafting goals for the new year.

My non-craft goals include
1) Cancer checks - chest, insides, skin.  I have appointments for cancer checks all month long.
2) Weight - easy, lose 30 pounds.
3) Exercise - yes, I joined a gym.  Now I have to create myself a workout log so I can track my workouts.  I feel a scrapbook layout forming up.

My crafty goals:
1) Weekly/Bi-weekly projects

• Make-It Monday - Make 1 kit every other Monday.  I would like to feature the Cut Above® layout kits that I have been receiving from the Craft with Heart™ Scrapbooking program is a subscription. I have at least 20 layouts to catch up on so I am set for the year.

• Technique Tuesday - In order to continue to grow as a crafter, I would like to try one new technique every other week and give it a try.  I can guarantee there will be some epic fails along the way.  I am hoping you can learn from my fails and save your self some craft supply $s.

• Work on It Wednesday - my plan is to pick a project I started and just put more time into it to get it closer to finished.

• Throwback Thursday - Like so many scrapbookers I have loads of older photos that I haven't touched.  I just need get some of those photos off my table, onto a layout and into a page protector.

• Finish It Friday - my plan is to pick a project that is almost finished and just push through to the end.  Normally these are projects I set aside beside of an epic fail or lack of photos or some frustration that kept me from finishing. I need to work thru to the end and just finish these projects.

• Stash busting Saturday - similar to throwback Thursday but with a focus on the stash vs the photos. Like so many crafters I have so many oldies but goodies that I just need to take out and use until they are gone.  My husband jokes that I am not a crafter but more of a collector.  To be fair when I see a really pretty kit, I want it whether I have photos to match or not.  I mean, I have had those occasions when I have looked at my photos and said, well such & such kit is perfect for these photos.  Note of caution, I could be throwing back as long as 22 years ago as that is when I started scrapbooking.

• Sunday - I have set aside each and every Sunday to plan my projects and write my blogs for the next week so you have something to view / read /inspire you on a weekly basis. 

Hope you all are enjoying the new year! 

Have a wonderfully crafty day and check back tomorrow for my 2019 December Daily update!
