April 2020 Monthly Scrapbook Goals

Hey scrappy friends!  How is everyone holding up?  We’re staying home, working on online schooling and trying to stay busy.  I feel myself father unmotivated in regards to my crafting though.  I don’t know if it’s the current situation, feeling responsible for making sure there’s not to much tv/screen time or something entirely unrelated.  I decided though that making goals and lists have always helped my motivation so that’s what I’m doing for my scrapbooking this month too. Without further ado I share with you my April 2020 monthly scrapbook goals.

1. This is probably the easiest one to come up with.  I want to complete four layouts this month.  I think one a week is totally reasonable, and more importantly doable.
2. I want to use three piece of flair from the HUGE collection that I have.  I haven’t bought flair in years, and if I’m honest I haven’t them in years either. If you look closely – one of the black flair says 2014! I chose three because if I on’y get to do four layouts I’m not sure I’ll be able to use one on every layout.
3. I want to kill this scrapbook kit from Authentique.  It’s called Loyal and it’s from….I’m embarrassed to say 2011.  I love Authentique paper, but when I purchase a collection from them I always struggle to use it.  One of my larger goals this year is to use up what I have from them….starting with this kit.
4.  Last I want to kill this 6×6 pad from the My Minds Eye collection called The Sweetest Thing Bluebell.  The collection is from 2012, and I only have 14 6×6 sheets left.  These paper pads were anything I bought ages ago and stopped because I find I never use them.  This year I’m going to try  to pick a few out and get them used up.  I thought about making card stacks from them, but since I don’t really stamp…idk

So I think that’s about all for this month. I’d love to hear if you make monthly scrapbook goals, and if you do – please share them if you’re comfortable.  We can help keep each other on track!  Also, do you have any trips or tricks to use up the 6×6 collections or older collections you’re not so found of anymore?  I’d love to hear your ideas.  Until next time…stay crafty!
