Scrapping Catch Up

I thought it was about time I concentrated on Document 2011 before I find myself at the end of this month and at the point where I should be concentrating on this years project.  Apart from the printing of a few photos I have completed up to August.  This is a little photo heavy but here is my Document 2011 project:

Album Cover

January

February

March

April

May

Page 3 is in need of some photos and only consists of news and weather at the moment.

June

July

August

Really love this project and I am certainly completing another album this year.  Just 4 months to catch up on now for 2011.

Document 2011 - April

They are only 5 months late but here are my Document 2011 pages for April.  Just need to add a couple of passport photos and the news and weather highlights (waiting for some white cardstock) for them to be completed fully.

For the focus page I used a sketch from Shimelle which is part of her sketch of the week challenges.  I changed the photos to 4 small ones instead of 2 panoramic view shots.  

I am really loving this album and want to concentrate on it this month and get up to date.  What is holding me up is the lack of passport photos for the calender pages and I plan on placing a large order for those this coming week and then with a bit of concentration I should be able to get up to date with this project.

Is anyone else keeping a similar album?  If yes, are you managing to keep up to date with it or is this thing called life getting in the way?

Bromsgrove Crop

Last Saturday it was Bromsgrove Crop and I started to get up to date with my Document 2011 album.  I decorated the calender page for June which already had the month's events pencilled in:

I then set about the first set of 6 x 4 pages:

Then the second set of 6 x 4 pages:

Just need to get my passport photo's printed for June and the photo's for the focus page (some shot's from our  photo shoot, CD came this weekend and I love them) and then June will be finished.  I am awaiting some photo's for April and May and then need to make the focus pages for these months and then I will have half the album finished.  For July and August I have sorted the papers out I am using and the calender pages are pencilled in awaiting the photo's.

The plan this coming week is to carry on with the Document 2011 catch up.  Hope to be back to show you some progress later in the week.

Document 2011 - March

These are March's pages which I finished over the weekend.  Just need to add a picture for my birthday then the month is done.  

Really determined to complete this project in full which is one thing I have struggled with on similar projects before. 

Will be back later in the week to show you the rest of the scrapping I have done this weekend; total of 12 LO's in all.  Didn't have time this morning to photograph the other LO's and will be out of action for a few days.  When I am back fighting fit, well as fighting fit as I will ever be lol, I'll photograph the rest and post them.

Look What Happens When I Try To Get Organised

Is it just me or does anyone else find the minute you try to get yourself organised everything goes wrong?  Last week I thought I would schedule  my Document 2011 ta-dah's for January and February.  It was getting late by the time I had finished and intended to take photo's for the 4th page for each month and upload to the post Monday night.

Well everything went wrong, oh so wrong!

I had an ear infection, that then developed into a cold with tonsillitis and Freya had been ill for a couple of days with a high temp which now has shown its true colours as she has a nasty abscess just below her waist.

Well sadly Monday evening came and went and January's page never got uploaded and neither did February's page.  So finally here is Document 2011 January and February pages:

Ta-dah......

So so loving this project!
