What are the chances
I've been scrapping along this month doing bingo, shooting for blackout again. Today I tallied all my blocks and only have EIGHT (8) more blocks for blackout (yay me, right?!) Do you realize that even though I only have 8 more blocks, I don't have a SINGLE line of Bingo ANYWHERE on my page?!
When you scrap Bingo, do you purposely make a line so you at least have one line at the end of the month? Or are you like me and scrap here, there and whichever prompt you feel like scrapping? |

Yes, I try to at least get a line first then see how it goes!

I do one line. . .that's all I seem to be able to do, so I just accept that.

My goal is 2 lines - I'm too slow a scrapper to go for blackout. So yes, I start the month by picking my 2 lines (or pattern) and try to stick to challenges on those lines.

i really need to get back in the bingo card for my mojo , it is so lang ago i scrapped this week i dit a few pages but i dont think i am at my old skills and lack a bit of mojo ! so bingo challenges will help to find it back i think i always start with one line and then go for the black out

I scrap here and there until I get a black out and leave the hardest ones for last...

I know I can't do blackout so I pick the line I know I can do and try to do a line connecting it. (my paying job keeps interfering with my hobby).

I just scrap all over, I’ve managed a blackout each time but I guess I’d be crunching if I didn’t complete it to get a line or two complete.

That's awesome, Wendy! Funny, but awesome! I haven't even started on bingo for this month... I doubt I'll get blackout. Maybe once I'm home, I'll work on a game plan.

I try to scrap one line so I at least have something. Last month was the first month in a long time I was able to do that though. Been in a scrapping funk. I'm shooting for blackout this month and I'm well on my way. I only have 10 more to go!!

I do the squares that call out to me first, sometimes it doesn't even make a line so then I have to fill the gaps in lol. I keep forgetting to post my card by the deadline though, I've missed it 2 months on a row

There has just been one time I got a blackout and that was last year on April. I've been trying to participate more and more in the bingo, but I just end up completing one or two blocks, that's it.
Still don't know how I manage finishing my 10 challenge layouts in one day for another site and 5 for another one and I can't get a single line here. So this time I am pushing myself to do two things: 1) Get the 30% discount by creating 9 layouts, the easiest ones of course. 2) Use the kits I already own at least twice in the same bingo card... This time around was hard picking up the pattern I wanted to do but the cross one allowed me use 4 kits for 9 pages.

My goal is two lines so I will look and see what calls out to me.
I am hoping for another blackout but we shall see. I'm working 7 days a week between my two jobs with Thursday and Friday being 10 hour days as I leave one to go to the other. Today was a 9 hour day.......I am wiped out.

I say all that in response to how you can scrap 10-layouts for one challenge, but barely getting a line here. You'll get it. You'll find your system and what works for you. Before you know it, you'll have blackout and be SO proud of yourself that you'll want to do it the next month, the following month, etc. You got this! I know you do!!

I am similar as you- here & there until about this time of the month when I check a bit closer & see where I need to fill in to get at least 2 lines. Last month was the first time I got a blackout! I'm trying agian this month- but not sure I"ll make it since we are out of town a lot... Good luck to you!

I scrap whatever prompts work for my CT work or photos, whichever ones I'm inspired by first! Than, after working on so many and placing the layouts on the card, I see where I might get a bingo line. I put a star or something next to that prompt in my notes, and than try my best for the next layout I work on to fulfill that prompt!

I start out with the one line game plan then start to panic when one isn't coming together. Or I end up doing one square just to discover it fits better with one across the board. Then I end up all over lol

I did find photos from our Realtor's Client Picnic last year that I plan on using for this challenge. It's not preparations, but it's the best that I can do for picnic since we don't generally do things outside due to a child's sun/heat allergy. |
