Project Life weeks 12 &13

Hello!! I'm back today with weeks 12 & 13.
This week started out small, but ended with big 6x6 pictures. it  was very simple to put together and I'm all about that. I had several pictures from our camping trip, but since I'm doing a mini album (hopefully I'll get it finished some day) I didn't want to print the same pictures for here too. So I decided to go with an AM and PM shot. I really like these pictures and I like how they look side by side.
This week was pretty busy with two of my nephews prom and taking a few pictures of them and coming home from camping and trying to get the house and everything together for the Easter party we had that house. Busy busy week.
That picture of David fishing is one of my ALL time favorite pictures EVER! and the best part is that it was taken with my iphone!! These few are pictures from the party. I decided to go with simple collages to get a lot of the pictures in the spread without doing any inserts. And that two more weeks in the books.

Big Mint Alpha love

I received my April Studio Calico kit last week and last night I got a chance to sit down and play with it. The big mint alphas I think maybe my favorite part of this kit. I created two layouts in a about an hour and a half which for me is pretty dang quick. I'm super slow when it actually comes down to what I want a layout to look like. I go in with a vision of what I want to do/want it to look like, but as soon as I start its like poof.... its gone.
This was the first layout I made and I just love this paper so much, but couldn't decide if I should leave the flowers black and white or paint them. As you can see I went ahead and decided on using some watercolors on a few of the flowers and I love how it turned out.
I took all four of my nieces to go see Cinderella  couple of weekends ago and I knew that I had to put this picture of us on layout. We all loved the movie and afterwards we went for ice cream. They all were so good and we had a blast. I really should do this more often. I love all of the flower elements in this kit and that flower stamp is just great. Hope your Monday was a good one.

Camping


This past weekend we went camping, it was the first time we've been in our camper in over a year. After we finally moved into our house after living out of it for six months I didn't think I would ever want to set foot in it again, but wouldn't you know it I actually missed being in it. I'm sure it didn't bother me because we didn't have half of our house crammed into and we were only in it for a few days. Plus coming home and it only taking an hour to empty and clean out helped too. 34 feet is a whole lot easier to clean than 2000 sq ft. ;)  Before we left I decided to make a little mini album to put my pictures when I got home. I rummaged through all of my paper and found some that I like and would go in a camping album. I pulled a few other supplies too.
Last night I finally sat down to download the pictures and printout the ones I wanted to use. I didn't really think I had taken enough to do the album, but I've decided to just roll with it anyway. Hoping to get this album finished in the next couple of days. When I do I'll share.

Project Life week ten

 Hello all! I'm back today with week 10 of my Project Life. This was a very simple and easy week as far as design goes and as always I'm ok with it.
A few things from the week, on Sunday we finally got our porch swing hung and I love it. On Monday night when I got home from work the electric was out, but thankfully I had put dinner in the crockpot before I left for work so it was ready and we ate at the bar using the flashlight for light. Good times.
Ended the week with lots and lots of happy mail and I AM ALWAYS EXCITED about that. You can never have to much happy mail. On Saturday the kitchen was clean and I saw no reason what so ever to mess it up by making breakfast so donuts it was!!!! Win win if you ask me.
