It's All in the Numbers!

Tallying up all my statistics for the February Counterfeit Kit Challenge was fun, but it left me feeling like I could have done so much more with my kit! I was really impressed by the incredible numbers put out by some of you! I've never been a super fast scrapper, and I also had knee surgery this month, so it was a struggle to get more accomplished.

Here are my statistics:

  • # of layouts completed - 3
  • # of two pagers completed - 0
  • # of cards - 2
  • # of Valentines - 1 (?)
  • The year of the oldest supply you used: The Basic Grey paper was from 2008, but the earring was at least 15 years old!
  • Total $ spent putting kit together - $1 + tax. Thinking about it, I realized I spent money on the supplies ORIGINALLY, but I guess the point is since we're shopping our stash, it's FREE! That's my story, and I'm sticking to it!
  • # of photos used - 2

I hope my totals next month are much more impressive!! All in all, I'm happy with what I accomplished. Since my totals were lumped together with Meridy and Bethany's, they look much more awesome! Those girls can scrap!

Here is what I started with:

This is what is leftover from my kit:

The cardstock is almost completely gone, as I only included four sheets with my kit. There are no full sheets of patterned paper left, and many very small scraps. I'm sure I could do a few more layouts with what I have left, if I had more time. I hardly used any of the flowers and ribbon I included in my kit, which surprised me! I'll keep that in mind next month when I make up my kit. I made a pretty good dent in the rest of the embellishments, though.

You did really well last month and this month's is looking good too - I'm just back from a short holiday and have yet to put March's kit together. I'd better get cracking before April is upon us ;o)
