  • Project Life 2018: Week 3

    I just finished taking the Day By Day class at Studio Calico, which was all about pocket page scrapbooking and picked up some useful tips. One of them was a reminder to journal because the words can tell the stories that the photos can’t. So for this week’s spread I found myself journaling a lot and […]

  • Project Life 2017: Week 37

    I’ve got several weeks from 2017 that are partially done (photos and a few journal cards selected) and just sitting on my desk. This weekend I spent a half hour finishing this one up. I had purchased the Stuff zine from LifeLovePaper last year and was inspired by the pretty colors and shopping theme to […]

  • Project Life 2018: Week 1

    I am excited to start a new Project Life album for 2018. Even though I have plenty of gaps in the previous year’s album, I’m not worried about it and I have no issue with starting with what’s current. I know I’ll get to them in time… I really love this time of year. The hope […]

  • 2018 Creative Goals

    2017 was a great year for me creatively. I was invited to work on my first creative team (Paislee Press), I made way more projects than I ever have in one year, and I saw my style evolve and grow into something I finally liked. I love the new year and goal-setting, and I’m excited […]

  • Project Life 2017: Week 36

    I usually like kits for the cohesiveness and ease of putting together spreads, but occasionally, I don’t like the color scheme in the kit or the color scheme doesn’t go well with my photos. The latter was the case for this week, so I ended up using a mix of cards from at least 3 […]

  • Project Life 2017: Week 34

      I’m playing catch-up with Project Life over here and have roughly 15 weeks left in 2017. I had started Weeks 34-38 back in November but for some reason never finished them. I took a few hours this past weekend to finish up a few of these and will be sharing them during the week. […]

  • Paislee Press: Autumn Vibes

    I started documenting with pocket pages regularly sometime last year, but have wanted to go back and document 2015, the year my daughter was born. I’ve been completing a few weeks here and there, but find I can complete spreads much faster using digital supplies. When I saw the Autumn Vibes release from Paislee Press, I […]

  • Project Life 2017: Week 23

    After a few weeks of not doing anything crafty, I was itching to sit back down at my desk and start again. I finished a pocket page spread that I had started before our vacation but didn’t get a chance to finish. The color scheme in this spread was inspired by an old sticker sheet […]

  • Project Life 2017: Week 25

    Today I’m sharing another week I completed last weekend during the baby’s nap time. I kept it pretty simple again to get it completed. Project Life to me at its core is really just photos + stories. I have to remind myself that, because sometimes I can get hung up on making things look perfect and pretty.Here’s a look […]

  • Project Life 2017: Week 24

    I’ve fallen behind a bit with Project Life while working on other things, but this weekend I managed to get a few spreads done by keeping them simple. I was inspired by Ali Edwards‘ recent use of sticking to a formula and used one she did a few weeks ago throughout this week’s spread. I […]
