Some people thrive off of making lists and checking things off as tasks are accomplished. Lists are a great way to keep track of things to do, things to make, things you love, and more. This week our Design Team is going to show you how lists can be incorporated onto your layouts, and even make a fun home decor project! Rahel Menig has the first layout to share:
Whiskers by Rahel Menig
Supplies: 6x6 Paper Pad (35658) - Dear Lizzy Neapolitan, Dreamy Days Paper (35642) - Dear Lizzy Neapolitan, Sparkling Smile Paper (35627) - Dear Lizzy Neapolitan, Serendipity Parakeet (53293) - Thickers
For a chance to win some American Crafts embellishments which are perfect for keeping track of lists (think journaling cards, tags, a mini album, and more!) leave a comment on this post by Friday March 16th 2012 letting us know what kinds of lists you like to make! We'll randomly select the winner and announce them with Friday's post. Happy list-making!
Love to make to do lists and then cross things off!

I would like to use the embellishments to make a grocery list and put them on my project life album.

Oh goodness me My knees just got weak I could imagine all the things I'd do w/those goodies.I could write a list about that! Now as far as my list making well Hubby jokes as to what don't I make lists for. I am known as list queen BUT they help w/no matter what I am working on be it personal or home wise. Nothing like a nice new List (which I am working on this AM for the week!)
Posted by: Ellie A. | Monday, March 12, 2012 at 08:00 AM
I like to make to do lists, packing lists, shopping lists. I always try and include EVERYTHING on them, so there are some easy things to cross out....it's also interesting to see the things that get crossed out last....
Posted by: Miriam Prantner | Monday, March 12, 2012 at 08:03 AM
i would list about the 'things to do today' and list of what happen, he say, she say. it is so fun!
Posted by: carol | Monday, March 12, 2012 at 08:04 AM
I am a list maker. Without my lists I will forget my head. LOL. I would use these on my cards.
Posted by: Mandi | Monday, March 12, 2012 at 08:04 AM
My primary list is the grocery/shopping list- it seems like it's ALWAYS necessary, even 5min after I get back from getting groceries.
Posted by: jengd | Monday, March 12, 2012 at 08:07 AM
I like to create "to-do" lists not only to keep on track of things but the shere pleasure of crossing them over! I also like to make little creative lists what to experiment or try out!

Posted by: Jennifer J | Monday, March 12, 2012 at 08:16 AM
I LOVE lists! My whole life evolves around them. I start and end my work day with my "to do" list. Right now I'm working on a list of "things to do" and "meals to make" while my family and I are on Spring Break next week as my parents are coming for a visit too!
Posted by: Jena Baker | Monday, March 12, 2012 at 08:16 AM

I make lists all the time and continue to check things off the list.

Posted by: Amy Jones | Monday, March 12, 2012 at 09:26 AM

Posted by: Maria | Monday, March 12, 2012 at 09:30 AM
I make lists everywhere! For work, for the kids, chores, party planning, and home projects! But right now I'm making lists for my upcoming trip next week! ( what to pack, what to take pictures of, what to see, etc...) No part of my life operates without my obsessive list-making!
Posted by: Christine | Monday, March 12, 2012 at 09:36 AM
I make lists for just about everything, to-do, grocery, gift-giving and receiving, just so nice to be able to have as a reference.

Posted by: Tiffany Mitchell | Monday, March 12, 2012 at 10:17 AM
I make lists for everything because I'm very forgetful! Even if I just need 2 items fom the store, I have to write them down or I will forget once I step in the store and see everything else!! LOL
Posted by: Valerie Bishop | Monday, March 12, 2012 at 10:18 AM
I like to do what I call "Task List" and I date it and my task list goes for about a week and I do another task list for the week.
Posted by: Felicia Young | Monday, March 12, 2012 at 10:18 AM
i love making lists, i just don't necessarily keep them. Lately i just love making a list of songs that get in my head throughout the day. its kind of fun to look back and think wow, i was listening to that - they follow my mood, lol.
Posted by: Joanne Pineda | Monday, March 12, 2012 at 10:23 AM

Posted by: Claudia | Monday, March 12, 2012 at 10:31 AM
I have a huge list of themes for scrapbook pages. I also keep lists of movies I want to see, books, I want to read and places I hope to visit someday. I only wish I could cross off more completed scrapbook projects. That gives me the greatest feeling of accomplishment.
Posted by: Joan Fowler | Monday, March 12, 2012 at 10:32 AM
I am all about menu lists & grocery lists!
Posted by: Gayle215 | Monday, March 12, 2012 at 10:37 AM

Posted by: Nelmarie | Monday, March 12, 2012 at 10:41 AM

I LOVE lists. I keep all my lists on Evernote so I can add to them from my computer at work, home, my ipad, my phone, everywhere! Oh and Pinterest is another favorite place to make my lists of layouts and DIY projects I want to do.
Posted by: Jamie D | Monday, March 12, 2012 at 10:55 AM
What kind of lists don't I make is a better question! LOL. This "habit" of mine drove my boyfriend nuts when we first met, but now he sees my way is better :) One list I have that is ongoing - I have a little journal that I track my scrapbooking projects in (ie: what pics to print, what idea book & pg number for a particular project, wants and needs etc..). I find I am more organized and not overwhelmed. And if I am going to a crop at my local store or to a friends, its a great quick reference for packing what I need or want to work on. Thanks for the chance to win, the embellishments look super awesome!!!!!
Posted by: Charlene O. | Monday, March 12, 2012 at 11:00 AM
I'm a big list maker. When I go to town I make a list of all the places I need to stop at, then I have a list for the purchases I need to make at each store. At home I have long range lists & short term lists of what I need to do or what I want to get done in the future. I also have a list on the side of the fridge of meals I plan on making that week.
Posted by: Tona | Monday, March 12, 2012 at 11:10 AM

Posted by: Mary Kay Audd | Monday, March 12, 2012 at 11:51 AM
I seriously cannot get through the day without a list of tasks to remember. If I were crazy enough, I would get a tattoo on my inner wrist of check boxes & lines to carry my lists with me (literally) every day. Instead, I just write them on my mirror in dry erase marker.
Posted by: Jess Amazing | Monday, March 12, 2012 at 12:00 PM

I make lists for everything. I have a list of things to do daily. A list of things that need to be bought for the house, a grocery list, a list for my husband (since he does not do lists, I make them for him, although he still does not really follow them, I need to work on that!) Then a list for anything that is upcoming like a trip or planning a party. Pretty much everything has a list!
Posted by: KellyG | Monday, March 12, 2012 at 12:17 PM

Most of the lists I make are lists of things for my husband to do round the house! Not sure I'd want to waste all those pretty products on that, but they would be fun to record lists of books, movies & TV shows that I read/watch during the year. Thanks for the chance to win.

True confessions: I don't make lists. I need to. Maybe I'll win. That might help motivate me to be a list maker.
