October Project Life with Paper Person

I was thrilled when I heard Kelly Purkey was opening a new shop called Paper Person! I’ve missed her designs in my spreads and I’m really excited to see what the new shop has in store. Kelly generously sent me some of the new products and I’m happy to be creating with her clean and on-trend designs again.

Today I’m sharing a project life spread I made using the October Kit, At Home, and the traveler’s notebook kit, Fall Forever. Sadly both of these kits sold out fast, but the digitals are still available!

I’m documenting in 9×12 this year and I love this size! I’m also documenting 2 weeks at a time which has made it easier to stay caught up. For this week, we celebrated the start of Fall with a trip to an apple farm to go apple picking. I added some photos from that trip, and decorated them using those beautiful leaf die cuts from the TN kit.

I also had to include this ridiculous photo of my cat, who makes us laugh most of the time with her funny poses. The stamped phrases are from the At Home stamp and “so tired” is from the Take-Out stamp.

For the right hand side, I used some photos from our various outings. Even though we’re at home a lot more this year, we still try to make time to enjoy the outdoors. I need the fresh air, and we’re lucky to live near some places with beautiful views.

I love that acorn card and used the Amelia alpha stamp with the Outdoors stamp to customize the card.

Lastly, I used the Take-Out stamp to document some doughnuts we picked up from a nearby shop after one of our hikes. I saved the packaging from the box I had been hoarding to use as the backing. I then stamped the “To-Go Time” from the stamp set, punched it out, and adhered it, with some letter stickers onto the card for some color.

Let me know if you have any questions! I’d love to see what you’re making with the new Paper Person shop products too!

  9. The voice of ‘White Lotus’ star Walton Goggins is the lullaby we didn’t know we needed
    jumper exchange
    While his “White Lotus” character Rick has been the source of some stress this season, Walton Goggins is here to soothe us into a state of dreamy sleep to make up for it.

    The actor has partnered with relaxation and meditation app Calm for one of their famed Sleep Stories, lending his smoky voice to a fable titled “The Yard Sale.”

    Goggins announced the Sleep Story on his verified Instagram on Tuesday, writing, “A friend once said to me the first question you ask someone shouldn’t be, ‘How are you?’ but rather, ‘How did you sleep last night?’ I agree.”

    The post included an excerpt from the story, in which Goggins is heard languidly instructing listeners to relax their bodies and get into bed. “You could even climb into a hammock,” he added. “I wouldn’t do that because I’ve never gracefully got in or out of one.”

    In the caption, the actor also wrote that he “wanted to create a Sleep Story that feels dreamlike, helping people slow their minds down by wandering through a yard sale (which happens to be one of my favorite things to do), uncovering hidden treasures.”

    “It’s the Walton Goggins version of counting sheep. I hope you enjoy,” he added.

    Other celebrities who have read bedtime stories in the hopes of putting audiences to sleep include Dolly Parton and the late Jimmy Stewart, whose voice was featured in a Calm Christmas Sleep Story in 2023 thanks to generative AI technology.

    Goggins currently stars on “The White Lotus,” where his character is often the most stressed out and tortured of the ensemble, at one point setting a slew of snakes free.

  27. A tiny rainforest country is growing into a petrostate. A US oil company could reap the biggest rewards
    kyberswap
    Guyana’s destiny changed in 2015. US fossil fuel giant Exxon discovered nearly 11 billion barrels of oil in the deep water off the coast of this tiny, rainforested country.

    It was one of the most spectacular oil discoveries of recent decades. By 2019, Exxon and its partners, US oil company Hess and China-headquartered CNOOC, had started producing the fossil fuel.? They now pump around 650,000 barrels of oil a day, with plans to more than double this to 1.3 million by 2027.

    Guyana now has the world’s highest expected oil production growth through 2035.

    This country — sandwiched between Brazil, Venezuela and Suriname — has been hailed as a climate champion for the lush, well-preserved forests that carpet nearly 90% of its land. It is on the path to becoming a petrostate at the same time as the impacts of the fossil fuel-driven climate crisis escalate.

    While the government says environmental protection and an oil industry can go hand-in-hand, and low-income countries must be allowed to exploit their own resources, critics say it’s a dangerous path in a warming world, and the benefits may ultimately skew toward Exxon — not Guyana.
    Since Exxon’s transformative discovery, Guyana’s government has tightly embraced oil as a route to prosperity. In December 2019, then-President David Granger said in a speech, “petroleum resources will be utilized to provide the good life for all … Every Guyanese will benefit.”

    It’s a narrative that has continued under current President Mohamed Irfaan Ali, who says new oil wealth will allow Guyana to develop better infrastructure, healthcare and climate adaptation.

  46. “You have a government that is reckless about what is going to happen to Guyana,” said Melinda Janki, an international lawyer in Guyana who is handling several lawsuits against Exxon. It’s pursuing “a supposed course of development that is actually backward and destructive,” she told CNN.

    And while plenty of Guyanese people welcome the new oil industry, some say Guyana’s startling economic statistics do not reflect a real-world prosperity for ordinary people, many of whom are struggling with the higher prices accompanying the oil boom. Inflation rose 6.6% in 2023, with prices of some foods shooting up much more rapidly.

    “Since the oil extraction began in Guyana, we have noticed that our cost of living has gone sky high,” said Wintress White, of Red Thread, a non-profit that focuses on improving living conditions for Guyanese women. “The money is not trickling down to the masses,” she told CNN.

    CNN contacted President Ali, the Ministry of Natural Resources and the Ministry of Finance for comment but received no response.
    Guyana, a former Dutch then British colony which gained independence in 1966, is one of only a handful of countries that is a “carbon sink,” meaning it stores more planet-heating pollution than it produces. This is due to its vast rainforest; trees remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere as they grow.

    The country has protected its biodiversity where others have destroyed theirs, President Ali said in a BBC interview last year. In 2009, the country signed an agreement with Norway, which promised Guyana more than $250 million to preserve its 18.5 million hectares, or nearly 46 million acres, of forests.

    Ali insists the country can balance climate leadership and fossil fuel exploitation. The new oil wealth will allow Guayana to develop, including building climate adaptations such as sea walls, he has said. He has also pointed to the continued failures of wealthy countries, already grown rich on their own fossil fuels, to help poorer countries with climate finance.

    But there are concerns Guyana could fall victim to the “resource curse,” in which vast, new wealth ?can actually make life worse for those who live there.
