Project Life 2013 Catch Up Pages

The Mom Creative
I decided to use this new monthly approach to try and get caught up on photographing my layouts. As you can see I am still posting from 2013. The album is complete I am just working thru getting everything photographed, that's my least favorite part, just can't seem to get the pictures to turn out in a way that I like, but I keep trying.

Week 47: Both pages are a design A, I had a small CFA calendar that I just punched holes in and added in between
 Week 48: In case you haven't noticed I am a little OCD, I have to start and end each week with the design A page protectors, the only thing that changes from week to week are the inserts. But I love it that way! The only insert this week was an 8.5x11 page protector for the magazine cover and article about Paul Walker
 Week 49: one small 5x7 insert, for an article and review about Carrie Underwood remake of the Sound of Music. I forgot to take pictures of the insert other than the main spread photo.
Week 50: : no additional inserts



Project Life 2014: Week 8

Sunday: awesome Sunday school lesson that met me right where I am in my Christian walk
 Monday: pulling out all my Project Life kits to work on a mini project (I love how versatile this product is!)
 Wednesday: Getting creative with the 1 inch of snow in the backyard
 Thursday: Flyers day at Chick-fil-a
 Friday: Finally got all the rest of my 2013 pictures ordered so I can start scrapbooking again, love playing with paper and sketches
 Saturday: Earned a $50 walmart ecard, guess who spent the afternoon shopping?

Layouts for my Life List Book

Thought I'd share some more layouts with you. These are all layouts that I am adding to my life list album. I went through a big circle phase and was adding some type of circle to each one. As you can see they are all very different, but they are there. I love the way these pages turned out.

Touch an iceburg. . .okay so maybe it wasn't in the middle of the Arctic Ocean or anything, but it was an iceburg (indoors at the Titanic Museum). And it is my liffe list so it counts because I said so!!
Try scuba diving. . . had a lesson while I was in the Dominican, loved it!
Rock Climbing. . .went for 3 months straight with my good friends the Millers. We did awesome!
Make my own pasta. . .nothing complicated, just simple basic pasta, so yummy!
