Project Life - November 6 - 10: Special Event Page...

Hey friends!  I've got a Project Life Update for you today.  This took me three evenings to put together, so I'm calling it days 10, 11 and 12 of Art Every Day Month!

It's for November 6 - 10, 2013.  Here's the full spread...


Detail of left side...
November 6th was a very special day for us.  We went to see one of our all-time favorites - Amos Lee in concert!  I decided to dedicate the whole left side of the spread to that evening.  The top right photo was taken with my iphone from our seats.  They didn't allow cameras in the auditorium, so I borrowed  the closeup (in the middle) from the web.  The bottom right photo is my favorite view of the Minneapolis skyline; and it can only be seen when driving by in the car.  Since Michael was the one driving that night, I was super excited to be able to grab a pic with my phone when we went by!  P.S. I used the Gossamer Blue November kit for this page.

This side captures the other little tidbits of the week.

I'm thinking about how I want to approach Project Life in 2014.  It's always fun to make a few changes so it feels fresh and new again for the new year.  Here's what I'm thinking so far...

1.  Go back to documenting the weeks (week 1, week 2, etc.), rather than just free-flowing the pages in each month, while still allowing the freedom of adding inserts or extra pages for each week if I want to.
2.  Focusing mostly on design a and d page protectors.  I will use other designs for extra pages or inserts.

What about you?  Are you doing Project Life in 2014?  If so, are you making any changes?  I'd love to hear about it!


I will be back tomorrow cuz it will be time for the November One Little Word challenge!  Thanks so much for visiting, and I will see you then!

Hi Michelle, just saw your comment as I was coming here to see yours, YAY!! Thanks for the visit and glad you liked my photos. I will probably frame that first one, seriously makes me happy!!

Awesome awesome PL pages, love seeing yours come together. Good job on them!
I for sure will be doing PL next year, can't imagine life without it anymore. I've been thinking too but not sure yet. Almost want to do a 365 picture a day thing instead of just weekly. But I know it will be stressful though. I also have a vision for it but can't share yet.

I just saw your post below too, sorry I missed that one. I LOOOVE it so much, you always make the coolest journals!! Can't wait to see you fill it up with amazing and beautiful art!!!

Will be back tomorrow to see your OLW, I bet it will be great! HUGS!
