Project Life Catch Up...

It's been an eventful couple of weeks, but I'm happy to say I am caught up with Project Life again!  Yeayyy!  I've got two weeks to share with you...

June 4-10, 2012...
Lots going on this week, including my first colonoscopy (lucky me - ha), Noel Mignon's summer crop, and a girls crop day...

 The pink title card is from the Simple Stories Fabulous line, and most of the rest of the embellies are Amy Tangerine.


 Right side closeup...
The 6x6" slots worked great for this side of the page.  The top left pocket is all about my colonoscopy checkup.  I reached the magic age of 50, so I had to have one done.  My doctor called it a "Rite of Passage."  I thought that was a good way to look at it.  Anyhoo, the bottom left has ephemera from my monthly girls crop; and the right top and bottom is dedicated to the Noel Mignon crop!

 Moving right along...


 June 11 - 17, 2012...
This week included a family reunion, a trip out of town for a funeral, and father's day visits from the kids...

 For the bottom two sections, I created a photo collage in Photoshop Elements, which worked great for getting a bunch of photos into a small space.

My fave bit of ephemera here is the pink post-it note that says "Shelley take me with you."  I got up the morning of my trip out of town, to find it attached to a banana on the counter.  I'd never actually been greeted by a banana before. :0)

I was working on the card-a-day challenge, and you can see some results of that on the right-hand side of the page.  I'm not taking the challenge too strictly, but I am trying to do more individual daily cards for my Project Life.  I think they are a nice added touch.
 That's it for now.  Thanks so much for visiting my friends!  See you again soon!

What great and fun pages you have this week!! Love love the one of hubby with the kids, that is sooo sweet. Love the collage of the reuninon, awesome way to get all those pictures in there. Sorry for the loss of someone dear to you, sending prayers and hugs. How cool that you got more deer photos, love how sweet they are. My dad gets them in his backyard every morning and sends me pictures of them. HOORAY FOR YOUR FUN JOURNAL CARDS, YOU DID GREAT WITH THEM. Love that you include all your classes/art/layouts in here, they come out so great. I've never had a message from a banana either, so funny!!
