Project Life {Weeks 1 & 2}

 

So, I'm behind in the game.  This is the first time I've decided to utilize Project Life to document our everyday.  You see, I've been a "project lifer" for a couple of years now just using it to document the special events occurring in our family.  I decided to put myself to the test this year though.  No better time than when you've got a new baby, right?  I started in April and I should be on Week 18, just running about 4 weeks behind. Today, I'm posting pics from the beginning and will work my way up to the current.  Here we go...

{Week 1 Left Side}  I tend to keep everything very simple.  Simple gets the job done.  I also tend to mix all my kits up and base each layout on the colors from the photos.  It's a bit more time consuming but I enjoy that aspect of it. 

{Week 1-Right Side} Once again, keeping it simple and letting the pictures tell the story.  I was printing most of my pictures with a white border, now I'm finding I don't like it as much and you'll find in my more current pages, I've decided to go back to using no border.  

{Week 2-Left Side} Loving the letter stickers from Simple Stories & using just a touch of washi tape.

{Week 2-Right Side} Many of my pics I run through editing programs such as PicMonkey or Picasa if I'm running low on time which is usually the case with three kids.  If I find time, I will have some fun editing in PSE but those moments are few and far between right now.  

Sorry for the short peek at those layouts but I'm off to spend time with two crazy kiddos who will be off to school next week.  Summer came and went so fast, sad to say goodbye to these carefree days...
