Hello everyone! I hope you're day is going well! Just a quick note: everyone has somebody in their life that's important to you; that you love and who is always there for you. Whether it's a friend, husband (or wife), family member, co-worker, child...there's someone. Take a few minutes out of your day to let them know how much they mean to you. A call, text, e-mail, face-to-face; it doesn't have to be a grand gesture, but it's important. Let them know you appreciate and love them.
That's that, now on to Project Life 2/27-3/4:
Here's the whole spread for this week, and I love all the color! I did the date on my printer by running one of the date cards through. The clear divider is left over from last year's PL (I started in May, so I have Jan.-April left to use this year) There's also an insert for this week.
Here's the left-hand side: standard pictures and some journaling cards that describe how the weather is (finally) changing to Spring. Since Jacob was at home this week recovering from pneumonia, my mom sent us 4 meals that just had to be heated and served. SO nice not having to think about what to make! I included one of the post-it notes she used with the heating instructions, because I like having her handwriting included.
The right-hand side is more photos; one of my precious baby Jacob who smiles in his sleep! We visited a grocery store on Saturday, just me and the boys, and Liam helped out by carrying some of the groceries in his cart. Too precious! I added an Instagram photo (sized to 2.5" square) to one of the journaling cards. I can't say it enough: I Love Instagram! There's also a photo of Liam with the new pillow and sham that I sewed and a tag that I cut and stapled right on to the picture (this is a great option when you run out of journaling space on the cards). Also a picture of me and my husband at a bowling alley on Saturday with my boss, her husband, an intern and a family friend. We were bowling to raise money for Big Brothers/Big Sisters. Thank goodness the contributions and pledges are not conditional on a high (or even moderately-high) bowling score!
The back and front of my insert. These are 7.5"x7.5" Instagram photos of some of the flowers in our yard (Flowering Quinze and Carolina Jasmine) I thought these were so pretty and colorful!
As with most of my inserts, I used a standard 8.5"x11" page protector and stitched the edge to fit the insert. Then I trimmed the excess...I must say that my straight-line stitching is getting much better!
Thanks so much for visiting, and leave me a comment with any questions!
