Spring Break Mini Book

So I finally got around to finishing up my minibook from our Spring Break vacation. I used a summer book paper pack that I purchase from Elise Blaha Cripe.  I just love her style, and the papers she chose for her books is to die for.

Disclaimer:  I stink as a "product" photographer and some of these images are sorely out of focus.  Also, I "think" I  am putting the spreads in order here as they appear in the book, but I may have ended up with a few out of order.

Project Life Week 37

Last week was super fun.  Because I've been a little unhappy with the quality of my pages due to the use of so many iPhone pictures, I tried to focus this week on using mostly pictures taken with my Nikon. Of course, they're not 100% Nikon images, but the majority of them are, and I think that it makes my pages look a good bit better.  Because we spent Sunday at Lake Winnie, I chose to use a lot of pictures from that outing which were mostly taken with my "big camera."

Small Insert:  The bottom image is in a flip pocket, so that I had room for all of my pictures.

Project Life Week 36

I got done with last week on time, but unfortunately didn't have time to take pictures and post them.
Yet another rather slow week, so I didn't have a lot of great pictures to incorporate, but I made it work best I could.

30 Lists Begins!

30 Lists has begun!  Because it started on a weekend, and a holiday weekend at that, I've had time to really embellish and work on the lists for my book.  I anticipate that weekly list will be simplified by a good bit.

List 1:


List 2:

List 3:
(This list made me think a lot.  And as a result of that thinking, I began to realize that maybe I need to change the way people think about me, at least a little bit. For one, I'm not the most positive person you'll ever meet.  In fact, I'm much more negative and pessimistic than I want to be.  The little brown bag contains some reflections that I had while working on this list.)

Project Life Week 35

I managed to finish my Week 35 a lot quicker than I anticipated.  This was not an action-packed week for us really, so I struggled to find enough stuff to incorporate into the week.

And I used my 5x7 page protectors for the first time this week to add these two pictures of the boys that I love.
