In the Craft Room: Project Life

Well Happy National Scrapbooking day!!
Thought I'd share some Project Life. stuff I haven't posted yet. Gotta catch up on it!

I added some inserts to my past weeks filled mostly with photos and some stories that had to be shared.

Week three with the insert of my January's 15 on the 15th. I'll probably be adding them each month right into my Project life.

And on the front side I added this insert - which I 100% took the idea from Cathy Zielske and made my own. You can buy the templates from her and her awesome graphic skills


And to my Week 4 of photos taken just in Waterton. You can see all those pictures here on my photo blog. Here's the page with them inserted on a 6x12 page protector.


Week 5:


Week 6:


I have 5 other weeks half done so I'll finish them this week and post them too :)

In the Craft room: Project Life

Sooo I thought I'd share what I am doing with my 365 pictures this year. Using Becky Higgins' great Project Life to make an album as we go.

The great thing is that now I have a great printer, my awesome new Silhouette AND project life. Am I spoiled or WHAT!!! So today I did this....


First I designed my journalling cards in Photoshop and printed them on my Canon PIXMA MG5220 printer. I used some digital scrapbooking paper from Erica Hernendez. I just used the rulers (although I have to say rulers in the Silhouette program would be REALLY helpful!!) and lined it up. Yes it took a few tries but I did then get these about each member of our family. (I wrote whatever my kids said so yes there are some silly answers!)


So here is my title page.

All Project life stuff plus some American Crafts cardstock that matched and another little journaling card I made about our family. The top picture will get replaced with a family picture as soon as I take one this year!

And here is my inside spread.

I got the 2012 card from here and I just changed the color of 2012 to what I wanted (aint photoshop GREAT!) and then all the cut stuff I used my Silhouette for. The Butterfly is a font I have.

From now I am doing week at a glance spreads. But I liked this to give a snapshot at where we are right NOW starting the year.
