So Week 31 of Project Life has lots of journaling - much more than I usually do. I actually changed up my process this week. I've always started by printing photos, then filling in the empty spots with journaling, quotes, and filler cards. This week I started with the journaling - I want to make sure all of my stories are told - and then I added the pics and embellishments. I love how it turned out!
Full spread:
Left side: current favorite song, walking, a relaxing night in, silly selfie, and a housewarming party.
I made a cute filler card with little phrase stickers.
I used the journaling spot on a title card and added a small pic to the side:
I journaled about a relaxing night at home.
Right side: bowling with the family, current television, wireless headset at work, fajitas at Casa Mexicana, Mom's new iPhone, plants.
This week I was motivated to play around with placing 4x6s in spots where there isn't actually a 4x6 slot. I want to give my pages a different look than what the pockets dictate. Sometimes I forget that I can make cards go across more than one pocket.
I've also been playing around with printing my pictures smaller than 3x4 and putting them on 3x4 cards to get a little more color on the page.
Need some more inspiration? Check out all the great pages at The Mom Creative's Project Life Tuesday.
