Summer Slacker!

That would be me :) Ok, well not really fair to call myself a slacker, since we really have been busy having fun so far this summer!
But since my design team projects are complete and I don't have any due for several weeks, I haven't been scrapbooking as much as I would like except for my Summer Project Life title page which I shared on the last post.
I do have projects planned and in the works as you can see here...
There is Project Life in the center with my PL planning notebook just to the left.
A big pile on the left with sketches I am dying to work with.
And down on the floor, I still have my Florida album in progress.
Tomorrow the kids are with my neighbor for a few hours since I will be watching her two on Tuesday. So my plan is to work on one or more of these projects. Most likely Project Life and then a sketch or two afterwards.

Do you find yourself scrapbooking more or less in the summer?

Just wanted to share another photo before I go. I love summer sunsets! Here is a photo from Saturday night from my scrapbook office. I looked up and it seemed as if the sky was on fire! This photo just can't do it justice, but I had to try and get a photo anyway.

And two movies we are looking forward to here...
and...

So darn excited! :)

Any movies you are looking forward to this summer?

  2. Also looking forward to Monsters, Despicable Me 2 and The Lone Ranger. I scrap about the same in the summer, especially when the weather is hot outside, like it will be this week!

  10. I scrap whenever I can grab time - seems to go in spurts for sure - long pause, then a whirl of activity :) Your home reminds me so much of ours that we moved from in NC!

  11. I scrap less in the summer too, with the kiddos home it definitely makes it harder to find time. The funny thing is I take way more photos in the summer lol. I can't wait for Monsters too hopefully thi weekend we will go and see it :)

  12. I'd say that I scrap more during the summer, since I have the summers off and all to myself (teacher). Yesterday and today I've not been in the scrapping/crafting groove but I'm hoping to get back in tomorrow.

  13. I probably scrapbook less in the summer, because we do a lot of traveling. However our church has a monthly crop and a nearby store has started doing one as well. So with the two crops combined, I can hopefully make up for the traveling time. I also like to take my scrapbooking along with me so I can work on it early in the morning before my husband is up and in the evenings while resting from our days of sightseeing.

  15. I seem to papercraft...scrapbook or make cards, less in the summer. It is just a busy time of year for us! But I do a little and it all balances out in the end.

  16. We are away at the moment so not doing any crafting at all, just doing a bit of catching up at the moment. Glad to hear you are enjoying the summer so far. Hugs, Anne xx

  18. I want to do more scrapping in the summer, but this summer is a bit crazy. I was in NY for a week, home for a week, I'm at a teacher training this week, I'll be home for a week, at another training for 3 days, home for 9, then back in New York for a little over a week. Wow. Its a lot! It doesn't leave me much time to scrap :(

    We are looking forward to both of those movies too! We're just really big kids hahaha

  19. I would love to see both of those movies.

    Summer isn't too bad with Emma since she is still little and not too busy yet with activities. Just have to entertain or she is bored ;)

    I was thinking I would slow down but realized not gonna happen. Can't get too far behind.

  21. That sunset is stunning. I can just imagine you sitting high up in your treehouse watching this. Gorgeous.
    I do less of all crafts during the summer...well I guess thats not true as I do work in my camp journals all summer.

  22. We took the kids to Monsters University last night. Cute movie, but it was in 3D - not sure why (seemed like a cash grab).

  24. I actually scrapbook more in the summer. I'm not a fan of the FL summer heat so spend most of it inside. Sounds bad but when I can be out in January enjoying the warm and sun, it totally makes up for it! Love sunset photos, especially ones like this when you look up and its just waiting for you to capture. :)

  26. Oh, I would never call you a slacker, Mary Jo. LOL You're the busiest person I *know*. You always seem to be doing something with your family!!
