Over
the years, I've spent a lot of time lurking on the Project 365 thread
of our online Community forum. I've always been blown away at the
level of dedication of those who participated. Those folks truly have
a detailed record of a particular time period in their lives...which
is an amazing gift for themselves and for future generations.
I knew
Project 365 was a great goal, but I also found out that it's a
project with a huge "drop out" rate. I found myself very
inspired by those who did Project 365 (and a teensy bit envious), but
it was all too easy to make excuses: I'm too busy! What if I forget?
Could I really take a photo a day and keep up with the journaling?
So, one of my New Year's Resolutions for 2012 became taking on Club Scrap's Weekly Chronicles as a personal challenge. Weekly photos and layouts sounded a whole lot easier to stick to, and there's a new theme challenge each week to inspire me creatively. With lots of other Club Scrap Forum Members participating, it''s been an amazing experience learning more about my online friends through their pages and journaling.

Well, it's been a little over six months, and I'm happy to say Weekly Chronicles is still going strong. There's a core group of people who've managed to maintain their goal of weekly pages without interruption...amazing! But you know what the beauty is? Even though a few of us might get behind by a week or two, catching up isn't some insurmountable task.
This process been such a rewarding and enriching experience or me. So, I thought now would be a great time to remind
you, my crafty friends, about Weekly Chronicles. Guess what? You can
jump in any time! So what if you didn't start it at the beginning of
the year? There are still plenty of weekly challenges to inspire you
in the coming months, giving you plenty of material for a “book of
me” or 6 month snapshot of what your life was like in 2012.
So,
head on over and check out the details. I cordially invite you to hop in and join the party right now...it's NOT too late. You'll be so glad you did!
As one of the few folks that stuck with P365 in 2009 and now again in 2012 I am so glad Club Scrap decided to embark on this journey. It is so rewarding to look back on that year in my life and the day to day goings on. Again this year, I jumped in with both feet to Weekly Chronicles on the forum and am enjoying getting to know a whole new group of Club Scrap friends. It is something my family and I will treasure for years to come. I hope some of you will join with us! So many wonderful memories to share with your current and future generations.
