HELLO WEEK 19! The week my cast came off and the week I turned 33. EEEK!!!
I inserted a birthday card my mom gave because it was so beautiful and thoughtful. She always gives the sweetest cards.
Here's a look at the left side. Foot photos, birthday cards and a Toms sticker from a gift Mr. X gave me for my birthday. Very appropriate since I am now wearing BOTH shoes.
On the right side is more birthday related photos and a funny quote from Mr. X. I was painting my toes and he asked if I was getting a footicure. Ummmm - do you mean pedicure??
And my favorite photo from last week. I asked my little sister if I could take a picture of her holding the ceramic angel she made me for my birthday. She set it down on the table and posed just like the angel. LOVE.

Welcome to week 18! I can't tell you how much I enjoy this project. If you are on the fence about creating your own album, all I can say is DO IT! Start now. Start in June. Start whenever you want. I know you will love it as much as I do.
Here is a look at the left side of week 18. My favorite part is the photo of a text message my dad sent me. You can do this on your iPhone by holding down the top power button and the round menu button at the same time.
The right side is from our weekend road trip to visit some friends and their new baby. I have several more photos that I wanted to add but I think I'm going to do a traditional layout and insert it here.

First of all....I STILL LOVE THIS PROJECT.
Second of all....I really did get an accidental message on my phone last week that my prom dress was ready {sigh}. It was pretty cute.
This week was full of pictures.
I added an insert to hold 4x4 Instagram photos because I had so many I liked this week and wanted to include them all. The page protector was originally 12x12 by I cut off one row so it would be 12x8.
The other side is dedicated to my little brother and sister's 7th birthday {another sigh}.

This week I'm combining 2 weeks into one post since I scrapbooked these weeks within the same spread. Here is a look at the full layout. There is an additional 6x12 insert separating week 15 and 16 that holds 4x6photos from week 16.
Here is a look at the left side - week 15. This week started off with Easter and then back to work for me. The card in the lower left is from my brother and his girlfriend that came with an awesome care package.
Here is a look at the 6x12 insert separating the weeks. I had a bunch of photos from week 16 that I wanted to include so this worked perfectly.
And here is the right side - week 16. This week started with Greek Easter, then a car accident. AWESOME. Thankfully it was not my fault, nobody was hurt and my car is repairable.

Welcome to the week of the broken foot!
Here is a look at the left side. I also added an 8.5x11 page protector this week to hold the cards my brother and sister made for me. I just love the pictures they drew of me with crutches.
Luckily I was able to get the x-ray off the CD the hospital gave me. I cropped it down in Photoshop Elements and printed it on an 8.5x11 piece of photo paper.
Here's a look at the right side. Random photos from the week, mostly from Instagram on my iPhone.
And the "Just The Way It Goes" stamp was from this month's Studio AE stamp set. How perfect!

Catching up on Project Life posts this week. I ran out of page protectors and then I broke my foot so this project took a back seat for awhile. The above SMTWRFS card was made with my new Cameo and I will have a post next week with some thoughts on the clever machine.
Here's a look at the full two pages...
The bottom right pocket is another piece made with the Cameo.
And the lottery tickets were Mr. X's idea.

Welcome to week 12 of Project Life! If this is your first time here, you can read my other posts on Project Life here.
Last week my brother was in town for a visit and to sell his Sky Scratcher, so the left side was dedicated to that. The journal card in the middle is a simple list of things I want to remember from his time here.
The right side is a collection of photos from the week. The card with the butterfly has a new stamp from the Studio AE series found here. I'm loving these stamps!

Week 10. I made it 10 weeks!!!!
Last weekend I cleaned out my scrapbooking stash and came across some older products that I've been hoarding for quite some time. Reason # 278 why Project Life is awesome - it's a great way to use up little random pieces in your stash.
Here's a look at the left. Instagram photo from Sunday morning breakfast, notes from the week, Instagrams, and the folded card with the KJ initials holds a little story insdide.
On the right side...more Instagrams, restaurant menu, notes about my usual Saturday morning routine, and stuff from our trip to Ikea.
I'm still crazy about this project. It's making me scrapbook every single week and I LOVE that. It's making me use my scrapbooking stash. It's making me try new things. It's making me get my photos off my computer. It's definitely all good.

I love how this week turned out. Welcome to week 9!
Here is a look at the left side. Not a lot of photos this week and I like it. Writing is good. The top right pocket is a card from a friend that I cut down to fit. The two middle center pockets are just thoughts from the week. Bottom left is an Instagram photo. And for leap day I took a photo of my computer screen.
The right side is mostly from the weekend. A quote from my little sister, a business card from a restaurant we went to Saturday night with some friends and some photos of me and Chris.
This was my favorite photo from the week. We spent Friday evening at my dad's eating and playing games. Here my dad was explaining one of his answers in the game while my little brother listened closely.

Hello week 8! Still in love with this project.
Here is a look at the left side. Lots of Instagram photos this week. Mostly because it is just easier than lugging around an SLR camera everywhere.
Here is a look at the right. The 2 photos at the top were also taken with my iPhone. The Fender packaging is from Mr. X. Love that he gives me stuff to add.
I had a small pile of confetti leftover from the card I made and I didn't know what to do with it. So I put it in a pocket and sewed it up.

45 more weeks to go!
I know I can do this. One week at a time.
The left side of this week was all about Valentine's Day. We did celebrate for 2 days so there was enough to fill up the page. The So Much Love Stamp and Document Life stamp are from Studio AE - February.
The right side is a bunch of other stuff from the week. Including a postcard from my brother, shopping list, and a photo of the treats I made for a Breaking Dawn party Friday night. Yes, those are photos of Edward and Jacob. Love it!

Welcome to week 6 of Project Life!
Last night we went with some friends to see a Roller Derby up in Milwaukee. Unfortunately, the Shevil Knevils got their butts kicked by the Crazy Eights but it was still exciting and super fun.
Here is a look at the left side. Mostly random photos from the week, starting with a photo of the television with the final score of the Super Bowl. Like I said, random.
And a look at the right. Everything on this side is from Saturday. It was a great day so it deserved it's own page.

I still think this project is AWESOME.
Here is a look at the left side. Instagram photos, an email from my mom that was super cute, a wine label and a little story, and a couple 4x6 photos.
And here is a look at the right. Photos from our Saturday afternoon date, PowerBall ticket, photos of flowers around our house, and a photo of me and my boy Leroy.
I can't believe I completed an entire month and I'm still super excited about this project. I look forward to Sunday morning when I print out my photos and sit down with my album and a cup of coffee.
