Project 365 Album: April 26 – May 2

Jun 20, 2009 by

Ah, that’s better. More space! Here’s a two-page spread for the week of April 26 through May 2. Since the pictures aren’t terribly much to speak of, I wanted the design to stand out more. For this album I’ve been using the Earthy Power Palette, but the background paper comes from a supplement called Earthy Serenity. It’s mostly the same, but a touch different. I did some planning for the rest of the Picfolio Max I’m using to fill with these pages. I can perfectly fit six months (with more two-week, two-page spreads). I think that will be ideal because then for the next six months, I can use a different Power Palette, which will be nice.

Project 365 Album: April 19-25

Jun 20, 2009 by

Here’s a two-page spread that covers two weeks worth of Project 365 pictures. I like the blocks. But I’m getting a little sick of scrunching in 14 photos on two pages. I think I’ll try a two-page spread for one week next.

Here’s the second page to a page I made in May. It’s for the week of April 5th. I like how clean it came out. As always, I get my products from Creative Memories.

Jun 02 2009: Borders

Jun 2, 2009 by

Tonight I went to a Creative Memories Border Bonanza event and bought a ton of new borders for scrapbook pages. Borders are great, because they are completely adorable and make pages so easy to create. But, the only problem with borders is that I have way too many of them. I collect them and never use them. So I pulled out a handful of the borders from my stash so you could see just how much I don’t need new borders.

I feel like tossing them into the air like leaves raked up off the grass.

May 27 2009: Recipes

May 27, 2009 by

I have a hard time focusing on one thing. That means, I can’t just watch television, I have to be doing something at the same time. I get this from my mother. Obviously, though, the television program and the activity have to balance each other. If I’m watching a baseball game, I can easily work on a website project, write blogs, or knit from complicated patterns since I don’t need to concentrate as much. But let’s say I’m watching Law & Order SVU. I need to focus on the show a lot more. So I pair it with an activity that doesn’t require nearly as much concentration. And so lately, when I’ve been watching more serious programs or movies, I’ve been collecting all of my recipes and typing them up for one big recipe book. It’s mindless really and I feel like I’m accomplishing something.

I cant wait to have one recipe book to go to.

May 22 2009 + Project 365 Album: Mar 29-Apr 4

May 22, 2009 by

I totally neglected to take a photo today, which is silly because I actually worked on my Project 365 album. I only made one page, and I have so many more to go. As I work on other projects in my life, especially writing my book, I’ve put scrapbooking aside for awhile. Hopefully I can do more in the future, but maybe not until my book is done.
