Project Life 2012 Week 7

On February 11th we had a little birthday party for Maxwell.  I decided to create a simple one page collage of pictures from the party which I adhered to scrapbook paper and I just added a simple banner sticker across the top. 

On the other side of the birthday layout, I added my Week 7 layout.  I thought it was fun to change things up and use a whole different format for this week.  I again used a 8.5 x 11 page format to create a collage.  I added all my pictures in MS Word and then added my digital elements.

Here's some close-ups:

I used Sassafras paper for the background and their chipboard numbers and letter stickers.

I'm also trying to add a lot of holiday events and current events into my Project Life.

I've been adding a picture of whichever book I'm currently reading.  I want to do this once a month.  The bottom two pictures are Polariod Instax.

I saw this cute little bear magnet at The Christmas Tree Shop and thought it would be cute for Valentine's week.  I just took the magnet off and glued it on top of the page protector.

You guys have probably heard about this but I wanted to share anyways.  Our Staples finally got in the Martha Stewart office supply line, I was so excited to see the display.  I got some page protectors, post-it notes and metal rim tags.  You can check out the whole collection here.  And I also picked up some 8.5 x 11 page protectors that hold 3 4x6 pictures {one horizontal and two vertical} at Walmart and some smaller size protectors that hold 2 4x6 pictures.  So for Week 8 I'm going to mix up both of them. 

Have a great day!!! xxx Marlene
