Project Life 2013 - Week 4

I am back for day three of sharing my project life spreads.  You can find Monday's post HERE and Tuesday's post HERE. I am sharing Week 4 today. This week, I mainly used Lily Bee Design Persnickety 6x6 pad and letter stickers and Echo Park Photo Freedom Volume 1 One Day Paper and Element Stickers. I have found that I really like to pick out a different 6x6 paper pad each week to use and then some other sticker sheets and embellishments to go with it. I really like how this mixes up the look of my project life as I think part of the reason I did not keep up last year is because I was bored with using the same supplies the whole time. It definitely takes me longer now, but I enjoy it more and really look forward to it. The 6x6 paper pads also work well because of the smaller scale of the papers, and since I do not use that many 4x6 photos, they are great bases for the 4x6 pockets. Als,o the cost is great for all the different patterns you get!

Well, here are my pages for Week 4 - I also had another insert this week:

Project Life 2013 - Week 3

Today, I am sharing my Project Life spread for Week 3.  We visited my brother's family on the weekend to see their new baby and for all of us to spend some time together. Because of that, I had quite a few pictures this week so I completed two spreads.  I used the Dear Lizzy 5th and Frolic 6 x 6 Pad, sticker sheet and die cuts  for most of this week, as well as some of the Dear Lizzy Neapolitan line.  I really love how her lines mix well together. Dear Lizzy's newest line - Lucky Charm - has been one of my favorites lately but I haven't used it for PL yet...hopefully soon! Here are my pages:

Project Life 2013- Week 2

Today, I am sharing my Week 2 of this year's Project Life. I have actually completed through Week 8 and going to *attempt* to share a bunch of my pages this week. All the photos of the spreads are taken..so we will see if I can actually get a blog post written to go with them...

For Week 2, I again used the PL Kit from Studio Calico for January. The other "main item" I used was Pebbles Seen & Noted 6x6 Paper Pad. A lot of the papers from that line were in the Studio Calico main and card kits for January, so it complimented the items in the PL Kit as well. If you have questions about any of the other items I used, feel free to ask in the comments below or email me. I had an insert again this week...and to think, my goal for 2013 was to complete one side of the page protector a week... :) Here is my spread for this week:
