Project Life 7 & 8

I love Project Life!!! I never ever thought I would. When the concept first 

came out I didn't really get it, I always thought I didn't have enough to 

document or talk about. This year I decided to give it a try with the small 

Handbook from Studio Calico and I really liked it. I quickly realized that 

I had too much to document, ha! So I changed it up to the 12x12 format, 

I'm doing one page a week but that could change as well. I am surprised 

at how much I love the PL concept, I imagine my girls reading the PL 

years from now and seeing their look of amazement as they recall what 

we did, said, went, etc... If someone tomorrow told me that I had to pick

 between layouts and a PL, guess what I would pick....

I created these spreads using the Hip Kit Jan PL kit. I keep a similar 

muted color palette and design. Week 8 was a bit rough for me, I didn't 

have a lot of pictures to use to I talked about my feelings as a mom and 

dealing with ups and downs of motherhood. It felt great to put these 

feelings on paper. I'm also trying to embrace my handwriting, using

my typewriter is ok, but I feel that it is more personal, from the heart,

when I hand write my journaling.
