Project Life 2012: Weeks 33 and 34

WEEK 33:

I am really excited about this one. It is one of my most favorite weeks to date. Partly the color combination, partly the pictures and stories, MOSTLY the title card:

TITLE CARD:

Tyson wanted to draw me a picture card. I handed him the card and a marker, and he handed me back this swoon worthy picture with a story that he immediately shared…

RIGHT SIDE:

I wasn’t sure what to think of this new page layout from the PL variety kit, but am really loving it. I rely on my phone to take a lot of pictures, thank goodness for Instagram, this layout is very IG friendly:

WEEK 34:

From one of my favorite layouts to one that is bothering me. I stepped way out of my comfort zone but was determined to use my Smash book stash of goodies…

RIGHT SIDE W/INSERT:

BACK OF INSERT:

This picture kills me. The first day of kindergarten seemed lifetimes away five years ago, yet it snuck up on me. The image of Ty walking down the front walkway is one that will likely repeat itself many times over…first day of kindergarten. First day of junior high. First day of high school. First date. First prom. First…

While the color combination throws me, the guided journaling made this week especially fun. I included things I likely wouldn’t have otherwise…

WEEK 35:

I thought I would include a week in progress and explain a little bit of my process. I have gone through and labeled each week with a simple notecard. I try to stay as current as possible with pictures. I upload weekly and print to Costco about every other week. I then cut out and place photos in each pocket, journaling and embellishing when I get some spare time.

I don’t really have a “theme” per week. I often just fill in the pockets with pictures as they fit. For this week’s layout, I am using some of the new journal cards from Target’s We R Memory Keepers: Albums Made Easy line. Love the colors and ease:

Have I told you how much I LOOOOVE the new Ali Edward journal cards…I LOOOOOOOOOVE them:
