a little crafting progress

I've been able to make a little bit of progress on a couple of craft projects... and when I say little, I mean little...

So... do you remember this little project idea? My 30 by 30 list in a book? Well, I finally got around to doing something with this project.

I basically took a vertical business card template and put one '30 by 30' item on each card.

These 30 items are all very important to me, and are all things I want to accomplish before my 30th birthday... and you know what they say- goals written down (and numbered in super cute brackets) are more likely to be accomplished. They do say that, right??

So now I have a pile of super-cute-miniature-card-sized life goals. This is as far as I've come with this project... but I'm thinking it has major potential.

-----------------------------

And what about this massive photo project? Remember my lofty goal of organizing my zillions of photos into standard 12x12 scrapbooks?

This one is coming along nicely. I have turned this...

Into this...

And somehow, I want to fancy up the front photo window with these cute little flowers. What do you think?

I will keep you posted as my crafting progress continues... hopefully we'll have some finished products to show off shortly. Stay tuned...

When are you coming to my house to help. Then we can help you pack when that time comes. My pictures are not in boxes but on the computer but with the same problem.

Julia, I really love the 30x30 book. What a creative idea! It will be super cute when you finish. :)

Wow, your "before picture" of your photos would be an accomplishment for me!
