Project Life

  Hello there!  So, Christmas week of Project Life was a little hard for me.  I’ll tell you why.  There are so many things we do leading up to Christmas and I want to make sure to “showcase” the “feeling” of fun.  And because I didn’t do a December Daily this year, I really narrowed it down and tried my best.  So, this spread took me a bit longer than usual, but I do like the end result.  Take a look.

The photo with Santa was made using a 6x12 pocket.  I wasn’t sure I would use them, but they are perfect for journaling and adding some fun pieces.

Here is the back.  Now, I forgot to take a close up shot, but I actually added a “flap” and I have journaling under the “flap”  I used Ali E’s 6x12 template for the journaling.

I made sure to include Santa’s letter to Alyson so I simply adhered the letter to the 3x4 pocket.  I added the paperclip to weigh it down.

These are close-ups of the photos and the hidden photos underneath.

Whew!  Putting this week together was tough, but totally worth it.  It has never been a favorite for me to scrap Christmas, only because I am always overwhelmed with “what” to scrap.  So, this was a GREAT way to put it together.  I am so glad it is done!

Oh, and you may have noticed, but I brought out my Silhouette and had some fun!  After I reinstalled the software and dusted the machine off (literally), I found that I had a $98 credit still!  Woohoo!  I forgot how easy it is to work that machine.  I may eventually have to invest in the Cameo.

That’s it for me.  Have a blessed day!
