Went back to the basics… Cards, photos and a journalling pen.. oh and maybe a few staples

Project Life is a concept designed by Becky Higgins. It is a range that works anyway you want it to. You don't have to embellish your layouts or use any extra products like I do. You can easily record an album full of memories with just a Core Kit, bulk pack of page protectors and a 12x12 Album. I purchase all my core products from Craft House - Exclusive stockist for Australia and New Zealand.

Project Life JANUARY 2014

FINALLY!!! Sharing with you the first few weeks of our 2014 album…
(yes yes i know I'm still yet to share the remainder of our unfinished 2013 albums)

A couple of changes to how Im recording life, both in the album and here online.

Starting with how I am documenting life and memories within the album - Some weeks we don't have many photos, some we have too many. Im choosing to document as much as I can. Some weeks are documented within 1 side of a layout, some with a double page layout. Im trying my best to get the most out of a certain subscription that I have been receiving collecting/hoarding each month. It always has the perfect amount of cards and embellishments to complete more than just the one weeks layout. And everything co-ordinates perfectly without needing to add anything else in.

As for documenting online, Ive decided, that rather than trying to post each week with only 1 layout to share, I would combine all layouts for the month within 1 post.

So Today I share with you weeks 1 - 4
If you have any questions regarding any thing I have shared, please leave a comment below.

The first pages you see once opening the album. This years cover page is completely different to what I have done in previous years… I also wanted to have our weekly photos start from the very first page.

Ive used a Hambly Screen Print from Polka Dot Creative. These are now sold out, I stocked up on quite a few many months ago. The 2014 card is from Studio Calico's weekly cards pack 

Week ONE - January 1 - 5

Perfect amount of photos for a 1 page layout..

Week TWO - January 6 - 12

A lot more stories and photos to document, including an OMG moment!!

There is an insert for this week, although you can't really tell, but its hiding some personal memories.

Week FOUR - January 20 - 26

Again not too many photos for this week, but how cool is that Washi Tape along the middle row!

Life is always better with a smile

Hello to all you crafty ladies (and gents) out there

I hope you all had a wonderful Easter long weekend, I managed to squeeze in some crafty time in amongst working and family time.

Sharing a layout with you that has been an idea in my head for a few weeks. Something similar was shared within the Project Life Australia group and I knew I wanted to scrap lift part of it.

This is by far one of my favourites! I can't stop looking at it lol

Ive used cards and papers from the Kiwi Project Life Collection that can be found at Spotlight.

The Life is better card was the starting point for the layout, I knew this had to be one of the main cards used!

Originally I had planned on just using the cards and Kraft paper for the back ground, then I remembered the paper pack that I had to match the kit so I swooped on that and found the perfect piece.  
Ive layered the Hearts paper on top of the Kraft paper with a piece of vellum to dull down the colours.

I distressed the edges of the cards with some blunt scissors and stuck everything down with my favourite roller glue tape and a few tiny staples. Added a couple of enamel dots, veneer pieces and some letter stickers, then sewed around the edges and called it done!

This layout took me no longer than 30 minutes max! I love when it all comes together so easy.

Linking this up to the Life Paper Scrapbook April Mood board Challenge as it works perfect with the colours chosen for this month. Its been awhile since I shared anything within the LPS community, Im definitely missing being part of that fun team!!

Happy Scrapping!
