Having never done any Project Life style pages before, I am embarking on a new venture to create two projects of this sort this year. Both projects will be simple, hand written and only supplement my traditional scrapbooking projects.
The first will be "A Week In Our Life". I believe that in years ahead it will be of interest to refer back to what our typical days and weeks looked like. My plans include starting with our schedule for the week:
Providing a current picture and brief biography of each family member.
Show and describe what things we, generally, wear and eat.
All of these cards were cut from my February Counterfeit Kit.
And this is the album that I'm using:
I bought it at The Scraproom Store.
I know there isn't anything particularly glamorous about this project but I believe the story will be appreciated years from now when we don't remember what out typical weeks looked like. It will be a different perspective than my traditional scrapbooking pages that usually feature more special events.
Please vote for which week I should do "A Week In Our Life" in my sidebar. I want it to feel as random as possible so we don't plan anything different. Thanks!
I love it, I 'tried' to do something similar last year but using a photo album and was getting along great until eventually the spine started to not play fair so I had to abandon it, never quite fathomed out how to recover it either - but there must be a way - might have to work that one out! Thanks for the inspiration
ReplyDeleteThank you Virginia!! Hope that you're able to pull together any of the work that you already put in to put together an album. I'd love to see what you come up with.
DeleteWow, it looks like you've thought of everything. And you are off to a good start with those kit cards. That will be a very full snapshot of your life as it currently is. I hope your week holds lots of surprises as well as the happy routine.
ReplyDeleteThank you Susanne!! I have a feeling that there will be something important that I miss. Thanks for the well wishes of the week. I just hope that I can keep myself motivated to take a lot of snapshots and don't forget to charge my camera every night. :)
DeleteI've never done this type of project, but looks like you have a great start on it!
ReplyDeleteThank you Deanna! I'm a little nervous about staying motivated to complete it. :)
