Project Life {Week 12}

{Week 12}
Let the photos tell the story. That's what I decided to do this week.
With the exception of one journal card, I let the photos tell this week's stories.
I did add text directly on some of the photos before printing.  It's one of my favorite ways of adding words.  Mostly because adding text to the photos doesn't distract from the story the image tells.
I used another DIY label for the title card.  I used the same alphabet stamp from Kelly Purkey as in other weeks...because I like it. So clean. Note how the patterned paper on the title card mimics my daughter's bedding...I love it when that happens.  The two journaling cards were also a perfect match.  They are from a very old Citrus Twist kit.
See the letter M?  I added that because it helps me remember which kid is in the photo!  My two youngest boys look VERY similar and recently they came to me arguing about who was in a picture they found in my photo box. And guess what? I didn't know either.  
Thanks for stopping by today.
Hugs,

Project Life {Week 10}

{Week 10}

Long time no post...I know. I have been working on my pages slowly, and am caught up through Easter.  I have even photographed the spreads.  I just haven't had much motivation to share on social media.
Alright, enough of that. Let's take a look at Week 10.

This week includes a honor society induction, a doggie hair cut, art and a Mickey Mouse birthday party.
Here's a closer look at Week 10.

I was thrilled to find the 'one in a million card' in my stash because it complimented Minnie's dress.  I cut down the Honor Society Program to fit in the 3x4 pocket and stamped my son's name right above the date. 

There never seems to be enough 4x6 cards in the  monthly Project Life kits.   So I have created my own.  I used a DIY label and stamps to create this week's title card.  

The cards in this weeks spread are from the Gossamer Blue October 2013 Life  Pages  Kit.  I swear that kit is endless. I have created so may pages with it.

Thanks for stopping by.
