Project Life Week 36

I'm a dedicated 81/2 x 11 scrapper when it comes to PL. And to ease the process I've become a hybrid scrapper. All the layouts are designed on the computer, the main pages are printed with the journal blocks and the photos printed separately then pasted onto the layout. I could print the entire page out but the old time scrapper in me prefers actual photos on the page. Sometimes I add embellishments, more often than not my focus is on just getting the layouts completed and into our albums.

For this layout I used digital files from the Honey Edition. 

Project Life Catch Up

As usual, our summer months have been crazy busy which has left little time for actual scrapping. I've spent the past week and a half attempting to catch up on our PL spreads. I've made pretty good progress. The website OhLife has been a real help. Every night I receive a prompt to record the events and stories of the day. I'll admit I'm not always the best at staying on top of the daily prompts when life gets crazy but always record at least once a week. So the fact that I've at least 12 weeks worth of documenting to do really doesn't give me much stress. As Martha would say...that's a good thing. 

Week 32 & 33

We had a lot going on during these 2 weeks but I didn't have many photos. I'm pretty flexible when it comes to my PL documenting. Pictures don't always have to be perfect, in fact I find myself using my phone camera more often than not these days, and if I can combine a couple of weeks so much the better.  

Week 31

Caught the quarterly sale at Designer Digitals and picked up a number of Cathy Zielske templates. Love her clean and simple style and with a little know-how, the ability to customize items to fit my layouts. 

Valentine Treat Bags

A few quick treat bags made with glassine bags and some valentine doodads I've collected over the years. The brads were picked up at Walmart recently and on sale no less.
