Hi friends! I just got back from a scrappy retreat with my girlfriends, and we had so much fun! Four days of scrapping to our hearts content - yeayyy!!! I worked on Project Life the whole time and guess what? I'm all caught up!!!!
I've got a spread to share with you today from April 11 - 21, 2013...
Page protectors used are a
Snap Pocket Page on the left, and a
WeR Memory Keepers 4x4" pocket design on the right...
What's happening here? Well, the biggest thing is that we were still having winter storms in April! In fact there was a big storm that hit on the way to bring Johnny in for some diabetes testing, and it took 2 1/2 hours to get to the vet (usually a little over a half-hour)! All three of us (Me, Michael and Johnny) were a little stressed out by the time we got there - ha.
Here's a closeup of the left side...
The big image with the colored pencils is from
Studio Calico. It's supposed to go in their "handbook" mini album, but I just trimmed it a little bit and it fit in the 6x8" pocket perfectly! The only ephemera used on this page is my name tag from the crop I attended.
Here's a closeup of the right side...
Ephemera used on this page is a wrapper from a tiny clif bar (a new size for us). It was fun using square pockets for a change of pace.
Speaking of square pockets -
did you see that Project Life has come out with a new Core kit that features square cards? I like the teeny 2 x 2 pockets! Check it out here.
My 29 faces project has fallen by the wayside for now, but I do plan to finish it. Probably not til later in the fall when things quiet down a bit.
How is your September going?
Thanks so much for visiting! I appreciate you so much! I will see you again soon!

WOW, that is a lot of PL catch up you did. I like these square pockets, what a cute size. Was going to ask you about the new kit from Becky too, the 2x2 squares are too cute, love the whole colorful kit!
The pencil image is so cool and I'm not ready to see snow like that anytime soon. Glad the 3 of you made it safely, what bad timing for you.
Looks great Michelle! Way to go on being caught up, feels good doesn't it.
Can't wait to see your faces later on! Happy Thursday to you!
Looks fabulous!! LOVING the colored pencils!!!!

Four days of creativiness with friends... ohmy, I envy you! LOVE your colourful page - I do hope we won't have that much snow this winter in Europe...
Lovely color choices and writing in your beautiful design.
Do you find you can combine art journaling with project life? Like where you make small collages that fit into the pockets?
