Album Photographs

So this morning I decided to photograph my progress in my PL album.  I started Project Life in May and decided to highlight the year and part of last year (2012) to "catch up" & then I will resume with weekly pages.  I am almost there...I am currently caught up to June 2013!  Here are some photos, enjoy :)

Proud Moment!

Today I had a proud moment.  Someone so graciously posted in a Facebook group that Becky Higgins Project Life was 50% off...enter shopping super high for me. Ha.   I looked at each item & even put three or four things in my cart, clicked checkout and entered the coupon code.  Sure was a great deal...but I resisted the pay now button.  I am so proud.  I currently have five packages coming to my door, I think I am good :)

Do you have a PL hoarding problem to?  Now back to that storage thing...

Notebook Paper Card

I was needing some more journaling space in my current PL page & made this cute little 3x4 card, looks just like a piece of notebook paper!  Just download & print away!  Can't wait to get mine embellished :)



**To save, click the image and either right click - save as or control click - save as  :)

I think...

I am a PL HOARDER.

I have all of my stuff on a little card table in boxes, sterlite containers and baggies...

Oh my...need to figure my storage situation now.  What do you do for storage of your craft/scrapbook supplies?  I need help, mine are currently on a square card table in baskets and sterilite containers...ha!!  I am so terrible.


Time to get scrappin', need to get myself caught up instead of searching Pinterest for storage solutions...

Planning...more planning

If you're like me, you are a "list maker".  I make lists for EVERY little thing.  Even when cleaning my house...sad, right?

I have been watching YouTube videos on how to organize and plan out my project life album, really interesting stuff.  I had no idea some people were as picky as me.  Comforting though :)  So anywho...upon watching tons of them, I have seen many different versions of PL Planner Printables.

Naturally I wanted one too, so I made one up this morning with my favorite color, of course.  It has a spot for the week #, the date, layout for cards (not exact sizes, but good enough to label each) and some note space.  I have printed out a few and am ready to plan out my next few pages & get to scrappin'.

Please leave me some comment love if you download, thanks for stopping by!!


**UPdate:  When printing you'll need to change your settings to {scale to fit or 90%} unless you can print without a border.

Home Made Holiday Gifts

I have to say that I am a Pinterest addict.  I am there everyday pinning and pinning...ugh.

We are on a tight budget being a military family (most people are on one these days though...) so we improvised Christmas gifts & decided to make them!  Salt dough is amazing, now the grands have something to last forever from Mattix! :)


Fall 2012

This is a page I did for our fall trip to the Paradise Pumpkin Patch last year.  Mattix had a blast seeing all the animals and riding the hayrack ride!  If we're still here, we'll go again this fall.
