I finished my first week of Project Life and it was so much fun! I feel like I have a whole new medium to play with. I don't usually work with a grid that much, plus having all of these little pieces to fit together feels like a game! I actually lost track of time on Sunday night and stayed up all night! All of a sudden the sun was coming up and I wasn't even tired! HA.
Anyhoo, here's how my layout turned out...

This week I used the Cobalt kit, plus items from my stash. Deb Duty had asked if I was going to use both Clementine and Cobalt in the same book, and the answer is yes! I loved them both so much I had to buy them both! So I will be mixing and matching. Thanks for the question Deb!
I was especially excited to use some of my new Ormolu flair badges. I used a Fact or Fiction Days of the Week on the left side, and a numbers on the right side. Miscellaneous ephemera included Caribou coffee sleeve, sticker from my new shelving unit (on the bottom of the bright rainbow-colored journaling tag), and two candy wrappers - one from Christmas Candy and one came with my new Noel Mignon kit.
This is my first blogpost about Project Life, so I'm still trying to figure out the best things to include. If you have any questions, please let me know and I will do my best to answer them!
If you have started Project Life - how is it going? Are you having fun???
Thanks for visiting and I will see you again very soon!

Love your pages. I'm trying to start this week and come up with ideas. Not a lot going on. It's my first time to do PL so I'm sure it will get easier as I go along.
Hi Michelle,
WOW you filled it up with lots of goodies. Such a great first week in your PL!!
Love all the COLOR you have.
I will be posting my PL updates on Tuesdays like in the past years. My PL on Jan 1st so next week it will be posted.
Just curious after putting so much into PL this week will you have enough stuff for your art journal pages?
How are you deciding which pictures/paper stuff should go in each book?
I can't believe you stayed up all night after NYE, that's two late nights in a row, you are superwoman!!
Congrats on your first week!

Your PL is so bright and fun! I can't wait to get the first week in mine- haven't started yet though!
I had no idea your song journal pages were so small! interesting to see the actual size!!
I just started learning about this project life thing and found some of the cool products on amazon. Are you planning to add things every day of the whole year?
These are so fabulous, Michelle. :) I adore your very special and recognizable style....! Wow.
