Project Life 2012


What I'm using:

* American Crafts Black Modern D-Ring Album 8.5 X 11
* We R Memory Keepers - Page Protectors - 8.5 x 11 & 6 x 6
* Digital Downloads from Design House Digital:
   Tu Es Jolie Vintage Mail Labels 
   Kitschy Dymo Labels
   Kraft - Party - Digital Elements
* Digital Download from Two Peas in a Bucket:
   DigiKit - Jan. Pea Soup Elements


This is my title page with pictures of me and my boys.  I used Hambly transparencies and the cute polariod frame that says hello from the Jan. Pea Soup Elements kit.  I cut down a baseball trading card protector to six squares for this page.

I used another Hambly transparency for my monthly divider.  The January card is from Sassafras and I added a cute glittery snowflake from my December Daily stash.

Week 1 - I used a lot of the digital elements I mentioned above for the weekly date on the top and the airmail journaling card.  The bottom middle card was made with an old subway map that I had laying around.  The picture with the sunrise is mounted on cork paper and I stuck a little pin in it.

I added some of Maxwell's artwork that he brought home that week.

Week 2 - I decided to make some of my picture a little smaller so I could fit two in one slot.  The bottom middle quote card is from Pinterest, I found so many great quotes to save for later weeks.  My journaling is short and sweet, one card for the whole week.  I may add a little journaling on each card as I go along in further weeks.

I'm sorry my pictures aren't that great.  It's a learning curve photographing these transparencies.  I've been setting up each week's photos on MS Word and I fill in my journaling card each day.  At the end of the week I just print - one sheet for the whole week.

So far I'm having a blast with PL.  For me it's so much easier then trying to keep up with traditional scrapbooking and I love the smaller size too.
