I'm finally caught up in my project life album. For a while there I was playing catch up. Today I'm sharing week 5 & 6.
Week 5:
It seemed that we just couldn't escape winter in January. It snowed and snowed and snowed. We had a little visit from Kristopher who came home all the way from Whistler, B.C. I gave M a haircut and I got one myself and M started to work on his RPM album for the big February challenge. Oh, and we got an ipad! That was def a highlight of our week.
I've been sticking to a simple formula of a little tape and some label stickers to identify photos. It seems to be working for me.
Trying to include more written conversations this week. Just a few tidbits of comments that we made to one another during the week-the real life chatter in our house.
Week 6:
I participated in 'Day in the Life' this week with Ali Edwards and her entourage! I used a baseball protector to house all the photos and just added a few little label stickers to identify what everything was.
Highlights of our week this week were having a little date night together at our favorite fancy pizza place, redoing some old furniture and having friends in before a show on Saturday night.
I loved this little poster I found on Pinterest this week. I noticed that Elise Blaha was using little quotes in some of her project life pages so I decided to include this little poster in mine this week. It was really easy- I just took a screenshot and opened it in Photoshop to re-size it. I saved it as a jpeg and just printed it on a 4 by 6 with my photos.
There's the first side of the baseball card protector with my project life pictures...
...and the second side. I just added little labels here and there.
I had lots of instagram pictures from a little trip to a local salvage shop so I used them to make a little film strip spanning two of the 4 by 6 slots at the top of the page. I also used two 3 by 4 photos together in a collage in the bottom left corner to include two aspects of our Friday night adventures eating cheese for dinner & helping our friends move a few couches. Aren't we party animals!? Not so much.
I'll have more project life to share later this week. I have a few pieces left of week 7 and week 8 & 9 are being combined for convenience sake! Everyone says that you have to make this project work for you right?!
