Default This May Seem Silly

Especially to those of you who are fast scrappers and/or who have been doing this for a while . . . but I am SOOOOOOO excited that I've gotten 30+ on this month's portfolio & will be getting the 40% discount for the next SR!! Since this is only my second month trying & I'm a very slow scrapper as a general rule, this is extremely exciting to me!!

I can totally see that! January was my first month to try and I got my 40% too...Shopping felt great
This month I think I am stuck somewhere between 20-30 points. But 30% is also fun right?

If you think about the fact that in 2010 I made 33 layouts in total....and this year I am already at 28!

So, well done Dee!

Not silly at all. You're waaaay ahead of me. Last month I did 1 layout, this month I'm up to two (which technically is a 100% increase) so far.

So, enjoy your shopping and your layouts! Congrats!

Way to go Dee! I remember how proud I was to achieve my first couple of 30+SR. It's a big achievement, and don't worry, you're not the only slow scrapper here. Takes me HOURS to do a single layout.

I do have to say that I thought I was a slow scrapper also....spent 2-3 hours on one layout. Now, I can be finished within 1-2 hours so there's progress

I don't get to 30 pnts this month because my printer isn't working so I can's finish the 10 point course....and another 9 points on layouts in 6 days...I don't think so!

Thanks, everyone! I think one of the reasons I've been so motivated is because everyone here is so supportive and friendly - that and all the awesome challenges and AMAZING designers, of course!!

Having said all that, I just realized that I'll probably be doing really well to get even 10 points in March . . . I doubt if I'll have much time to scrap at all but will do my best :-)

Are you kidding me? That is tremendous, Dee!!! YAY you! I slowed down this month, so I am struggling to hit 20 points. It does make the shopping extra-sweet, right?

I totally feel ya! I did the challenges for points twice last month, but I had to quit after that because it totally consumed me. Trying to make that many layouts took all my time, BUT I made a whole bunch of pages that tell my stories that I love! So it was worth it, just not something I can do often.

Have fun with your rewards!
