Project Life - Week 5

Ok, so here it is ... one of my Project Life pages; I'm a couple of weeks behind already, but I'm really not worried about it, as normally I'm only doing one page a week.  Mind you, at the moment I'm finding doing a page is taking longer than any layout I've ever worked on!

Although I didn't buy any of the core kits, I don't really think it's too much of a problem, and I'm certainly using stash in a way I never did before.  I'm not worried about cutting it up and really playing.  So I have to say, so far ... I LOVE IT.

Yesterday, we had a whole day free, so I set myself up in my craft room, and worked on Week 5.  This was by far the busiest of weeks so far, what with our spa break and my Aunty leaving us.  So it went into 2 pages, but I still had more photos I wanted to use - plus the check-in card from our break. So I did a mini page in the middle by cutting one of the full page protectors in half.

So here it is;

Page 1
Insert side 1
Insert side 2
Page 2


Its certainly a fun way to include photos that maybe wouldn't make it onto a 12 x 12 layout ... ok, now to work on week 6 :)

  11. Oh well done Sandra, it's looking fabulous. I think the small extra pages add interest to the album as well. I'm behind too, but who cares? It's the fun of doing it.

  19. Looks like a fab week! I've scrapbooked my holidays over a couple of years using this style of scrapbooking, and the freedom of cutting things up and getting nearly all of your photos in is great! Then I give myself permission to do a layout on something special and whack it in the middle - who cares about being behind? Having fun is what counts - as long as you've remembered what you've done, and I've usually forgotten by the next day ... :)
