August 2014 Crafting Goals

A recap of last month's goals:

  • Make July 6x6 Monthly Page -- Failed.  I completely forgot about this goal.  Argh!
  • Figure out what to do with the rest of retired/don't want supplies (possible RAKs) -- 50% success.  I sold some of my retired sets at a local garage sale.  I need to put the rest of it onto my FB groups.
  • Complete 3 PL spreads -- Success!  I got behind in my weekly spreads, but I ended the month completely caught up!
  • Try a new card making technique -- Success!  I made a few cards incorporating PL cards.  They turned out cuter than I thought they would.
  • Prep blog posts through August -- Fail. I'm so far behind on the back end of my blogs.  I really need to catch up.
  • Try a baby craft -- Success!  We made discovery bottles at the summer social.  Lots of fun!  Arthur still likes playing with his.  Now to think of a few new craft ideas for this coming month and Arthur's birthday party.

This month's goals:

  • Participate in at least 5 card making challenges (e.g. Mojo Monday, Dynamic Duos, etc) -- I had fun making a few cards last month.  I want to try to make some more cards based off of challenges.
  • Complete July and August's monthly pages -- I need to catch up
  • Plan out two crafts for Arthur's birthday party in October -- I want to get an early start on planning for his party in October.  I have Pinterest board, but it needs to be curated a little better.  And I need to make a supply list.
  • Put up my retired sets to sell on the FB groups -- They need to be gone now.
  • Reorganize my DSP box -- This box is a huge mess.  I need to organize and plan a bit better.  And then use the paper instead of just hoarding it.
  • Delete one retired DSP Pinterest board -- Related to the last goal, I want to get rid of at least one pack of retired DSP by actual using it (and possibly selling/RAKing the rest)
