Project Life 2017 :: December

Hello!

Here's my last Project Life spread for 2017.  Now it's time to plan for 2018.  I wouldn't mind getting some new brushes to work with.  I need to set aside some time to think about what I want to change.  Or maybe I'll keep some things the same.  The sky is the limit!

Project Life 2017 :: November

Hello!

I'm still alive...

Just haven't been on the computer much.

About a month ago our computer updated and our main hard drive crashed.  Thankfully, most of everything was already backed up on our external hard drive.  I do have to redo a couple of scrapbook pages that I hadn't saved to our external hard drive.  Oh well.

Here's November:

Jeralyn's 6th birthday

Hello!

I've been working on this spread for weeks (not kidding).  Of course, I wasn't working on it the whole time.  I started it, but then I got stuck.  I made a minor change and decided I was done.

Jeralyn probably thought her 6th birthday was the most pathetic birthday so far (no party), but she was a pretty happy girl anyway.  I just love that easy-going way about her.

Project Life 2017 :: October

Hello!

Well, now I'm caught up with Project Life.  October has 5 pages!  I decided that was okay since I have that regular scrapbook page about the pumpkin patch that I can have next to the 5th page in the album (once the pages are printed).

Speaking of having pages printed.  I had some pages printed through Persnickety Prints a couple of weeks ago and I realized that I haven't scrapped Jeralyn's 6th birthday.  So I guess that's next!

October:

Pumpkin Patch

Hello!

My favorite season is fall.  And it's also something I love to scrapbook about.  Maybe it's all of the fall colors (especially orange). It's been awhile since I've created a regular scrapbook page.  I was working on Project Life's October spread and I stopped what I was doing to create this page.  I just couldn't resist!

Joshua's 3rd birthday

Hello!

Another layout!  I think this means I'm caught up on everyone's birthdays.  I'm having fun creating!

Joel's 1st birthday

Hello!

I was in the mood to scrapbook this afternoon, but since I am caught up on Project Life, I decided I would scrapbook Joel's 1st birthday.  It's funny though, because I actually saved this layout as Joel's 2nd birthday!  He's only ONE!  I was cracking up!  I even put a number "2" on the page instead of a "1".  And then I noticed what I had done.  Ha!

Joel's birthday was very simple.  We had our friends Jeremy and Kate over to celebrate.  Normally, I like to go all out, but since we just moved and we didn't know hardly anyone yet to have an all-out party, we stuck to simple--but still fun and very special.  Joel was also sick, which is a first for a first birthday in our household.  But boy, did he like his chocolate cake!

It's really fun to be scrapbooking again!  I would love to create more everyday pages to combine with the Project Life pages in our albums.  Since completing Joel's Baby Journal, I feel like I can do anything.  Such a good feeling!
