Project Life Week 1 8 …Signs of Spring

I am a little further behind than I am comfortable with at the moment.  I have lots of lovely photos but the sentiments are a little flat. I have several options at this point. I can either start Scrapping from where I am at and catch up the missing weeks as I go, do several weeks at a time for the next few weeks or just skip the dead weeks. Lets face it if I were up to date no weeks would be ‘dead weeks’ because you always find something exciting to share!

No Ct work to do this week so I fell back on my Clementine Kit that I purchased way back. I love the bright clean look of the journal cards in this kit but in typical PL style it is lacking in all the little unique elements that I have become accustomed to in other kits. How is everyone else keeping up?

Make A Wish

I think this might possibly be one of my favorite LO’s. I had to CT for both the Template by Template Dreams and the kit by A Little Giggle Designs but after being ill for over 10 days nothing was coming to me. I had trolled through my many photos and after playing with a few ideas I deleted them and went to bed.  When I was away from my computer a moment of inspiration came to me as I remembered this group of photos. The colors and theme fit perfectly.

Template by Template Dreams called Add A Boarder available here

This is a fairly old picture as you can see from the Ringo style glasses. In England the local authorities protect certain parcels of land that they rent in portions to people from the local community so they can plant and grow. These ‘allotments’ are well sought after. We were fortunate to have a plot when we lived in city flats and had no garden.  That place was a haven in the big city.

Creating Digital Project Life Pages; Planning and Organizing Tips

This is a super quick post to advertise my latest project. I was invited by Chelle the creator of DigiScrapLove to guest post for her blog. I have been posting LO’s in the gallery and she asked if I could share a few tips about Digital Project Life pages. I have broken the article down into several posts and so we will run a mini series. My first post entitled, ‘planning and organizing tips’ went live today. Would love to see you visit and leave some love.

Project Life Week 17

I am settled into my routines with PL which is a huge blessing.  Not only can I finish most of it in one sitting but it helps even on the odd occasion that I just don’t feel like putting a LO together. I am a month behind which doesn’t worry me tremendously but I wouldn’t want to get behind much more. So this weekend, after being sick for over two weeks, I had to push myself to ‘get on with it’. I am glad I did as it all went smoothly and I loved working with this kit. I have three designers that I am CT’ing for at the moment and they know I love to scoop up on those matching journal cards. They pull everything together and make the pages look so cohesive.

Project Life Week 16

I didn’t create this for a Creative Team project so I wasn’t very good at remembering what products I used.  Most designers are very good at labeling each file with their name and the kit name so I was able to pull the LO back up in PSE and look at the files.

The products for this LO are called ‘Memorable’ by Christine Smith.

Proverbs 31 Art Journal Page

sv-ajbprov31

Awesome kit available at Scrapvine.

This page was created for a challenge at DigiScrapLove. The challenge was centered around a quote about doing all that we possibly are capable of. I immediately thought of this scripture. It is an amazing list of qualities and one that could make even the greatest of saints shy away.   Unless, of course, we think of lifetime achievements and what is possible in the strength of the Lord.
