Wonderful Project Life

My sister Sarah told me about Project Life early this year and i didn't really understand what it was. Then mum brought it up again saying Sarah had started hers and again I didn't really respond still not knowing what it was. One day I popped over to have a look at Pam Garrison's blog (one of my favourites) and she had just completed this post . Well did that get me going! I love what she does and she gives all the info, with links, about what you need to get started!

Since reading her post I haven't looked back since! I urgently ordered albums, inserts and a core kit from a site in the UK and was bursting at the seems until it arrived. There are a lot of freebie printables (I have many saved on Pinterest) out there to use and also great sites that sell digital cards as well. I particularly like the Lilypad store . I'm still collecting things here and there so as goodies arrive I may change a few things on a couple of pages. 

I'm keeping it fairly simple, not very good at scrapbooking and journalling but I love the way you can store memories and keep records! Lulu is also involved occasionally writing, drawing and advising me.

I am now up to week 6, 2014 here are a few pages:

I've also started do our wedding album, the photos have shamefully been sitting in a box since 2003!
This is an epic job all my photos are on discs which we never look at so now I plan to go through and slowly put favourite photos in albums! Like I really have time for this!!!! Regardless it's well worth it and great fun. Hopefully as time goes I'll get better at it!!!!!

  3. I LOVE visiting your blog! I feel as though we are connected somehow because we love vintage, sewing and now I see we both just started Project Life this year! Great album and I'm looking forward to seeing more of your pages this year.
