New Year's Goal/Resolutions

Okay, so I wasn't going to make any resolutions but the more I thought about it, I am going to make a few in regards to stamping/crafting.
I already stated that I am going to strive to continue to improve my card making skills, hopefully find some local stampers to get together with and try to keep up and possibly increase the number of RAK's I send out.
In addition, I am going to try and make at least 4 Christmas cards a month so I'm not rushing around in Nov/Dec. I'm also going to try and use at least 3 "older" stamp sets a month so I can keep using my supplies and not focus on just the new ones.
I am also going to really, really work on using what I have and try to not go too overboard on new supplies. The key word there is try. LOL!
I also am going to do my best to not "force" myself to stamp when I'm not feeling it. Most of the time I don't like the end results so why try forcing it? I'll stamp what I want, when I want!
So there's my goals/resolutions for 2009.
Anyone else have any crafting ones?

I don't have any set resolutions, but I am trying to start making the insides of my cards look as nice as the outsides. I usually leave the inside blank, but you have inspired me to decorate the inside too.

Great Resolutions Danni!!

I have never made New Years Resolutions before, but I think I am going to this year, and some of the ones I have been thinking about are the same ones you have talked about maybe I will compile them and post them later!!!

TFS!

Great ideas Danni. I love the one about using what you already have. I could probably make cards for the entire 2009 without buying another thing!!! Actually I could probably just use my scraps!! LOL.

I go back and forth on setting goals. I always end up making them but forget about them after a couple of months. So my first goal is make something that I can continously look at so I don't forget about them. I really like your goal of doing 4 xmas cards a month (going to CASE that one) and to try and use 3 "older" stamp sets a month (going to CASE this one as well). I'll probably post my goals in the next few days!
