Project Life | Week One
I kept this week really simple! My goal for 2014 is to only spend 1 hour each week on project life. This week I ordered pictures Sunday afternoon, picked them up Monday morning, and finished the layout Monday afternoon. This worked out really well and I’m going to try to keep it up, so I don’t get behind this year. Continue reading
Project Life 2014
I am excited and re-energized to be documenting 2014 with Project Life. I still have not completed our 2013 album, but I’m OK with that and just want to stay as current as possible in 2014.
This year I will be using the Jade edition core kit. Continue reading
Project Life: Weeks 17- 18
April 22- May 05 This was a pretty normal couple weeks for us. I went with a pink color scheme for this layout and I love how it turned out. I really tried to keep things simple. I like a nice balance between creative embellishments and still letting the photos be the focus. This is getting easier to each week. I think its because I’ve had 6 months to practice.
A few highlights from weeks 17 & 18: We made baked goat cheese // May Goals // celebrating just because // virtual walk competition at work // bike ride // homemade granola // DIY calendar // Right side of the layout. Left side of layout

April 6- April 10 I Love this insert so much. It might be because looking at these picture makes me happy, but I also love how this came together. The bright coral/ orange paper mixed with the blue is perfect for vacation photos. I kept the embellishments simple to let the photos stand out.
