Project Life : Week 3


Welcome to my Project Life album: Week 3.


Still going strong. Still keeping my album out on the desk in our craft room, and adding little bits and pieces throughout the week. Still printing my photos here at home on my new Epson Artisan printer. Still combining Instagram pics with pictures from my "big" camera. Still jotting down notes on my phone about places we went, people we saw and things we did.......and then using that as a reference when adding journaling cards to my album. Still loving this process, and feeling so grateful for this life that we are creating.

Here's a look at Week 3:

 
This week, I included Instagram pics, a free download from Ali, an invitation to a baby shower I co-hosted and a little print out to showcase my favorite show along with some bits and pieces from my stash.



We had a full weekend with a baby shower and a birthday party for our cousin, so I included an insert for this week to hold a few more pictures.


I cut one of Becky's page protectors down so that I could include 6 4x6 photos of the birthday party. I also attached a little Smash tab at the top of the page protector ("celebrate").


 The back of the insert.


For the right side of the spread, I included more pictures from our weekend, a hotel key from my stay in Dallas, and a funny little conversation I had with Sienna.


I downloaded this cute little "Magic" freebie from the Tiny Twig.

I feel like I have gotten back into a creative groove with this project. It's a fun, totally do-able way to capture our memories in a really meaningful way....the good, the bad and the completely amazing parts of our everyday journey!

Lovely pages and does indeed look like a full weekend of fun. I like how you used Smash products in your book. I don't have a Smash book but I love all the bits and pieces they have for it. I may have to go grab some for PL.

the extra 4x6 insert with the celebrate tab is amazing! I think I am going to use that idea this week when my car goes from 99999 to 100000 miles :)
