Using the Project Life Heritage Edition to Easily Decorate the Thanksgiving Table

I Love the neutral color scheme of the Project Life Heritage Edition, and thought burlap, black and white would create a pleasing modern rustic look.

Here is a wide-angle view of the whole table. I found the bundled wheat on Pinterest and gave it a try, and five hours later... tada! Thanksgiving centerpiece, thank you Pinterest!

I love how easy this was to print on, and how this color scheme from the Heritage Kit is so easy to work with. Seriously!! This goes with everything people:)

I am so excited about using the 3x4 journaling cards, from the Heritage kit, for guests to write what they are thankful for this year. Place card, decor and thanksgiving week journaling all in one... Yes, please!! Thank you for visiting my little blog today!

Project Life 2013: Week 40

For Week 40, I decided to make the focus all about my daughter! This is her birthday week, and I wanted to highlight her personality, likes and dislikes, and celebrate the unique creation she is! I took photos of some of her favs right now and journaled about some of her interests, goals, food, quirks and style at age 15. I will really enjoy creating one of these pages for each year now and can't wait to see how she learns and matures each year! Love you daughter!!
       As I always say, You are only "insert age here" once! And my daughter always says, "Mom, you are only every age once!" True 'dat girl!! But each age, and or season, is one I want to celebrate to show how much they are loved.
      The Just Add Color Project Life kit, and the Jade Core kits were great for mixing this week, and I really like how the colors coordinated.

Project Life 2013: Weeks 38 & 39

Week 39: Loved using the new "Just Add Color" Edition of Project Life available on HSN this fall! It worked great for my square Instagram pics, and the new 2"x 2" size is adorbs!! Added computer journaling, and letter stickers, and the family die cut is from Simon Says Stamp and Memory Box.

Week 38: Seriously, how cute is the Amy Tangerine/ American Crafts Cut &Paste Mini Project Life Kit??  LOVE it! I also used the Studio Calico August Project Life Kit cards as they are  Amy Tangerine Cut and Paste, and the stickers are from Amy Tangerine/American Crafts "Yes, Please" line.

Thanks for visiting my little corner of the blogosphere!

Weeks 35, and 36 Project Life 2013

Mixed the June and August Studio Calico Project Life Kits (Roundabout, and Marks and Co.) and one Seafoam Core Kit card. Only a few embellishments used: letter stickers, cork arrow, sequins, and washi tape. The week card is a picture of our new doormat, with "WK 35" letter stickers directly on the photo.  A very quick spread!

Week 36 is made with the Marks and Co. Project Life Kit (August) and the new lined 3x4 blank journal cards, and 4x6 blank white textured cards by Becky Higgins LLC. I used a Ranger Detail Waterbrush to add the watercolor to the lined journal card on the right, and the frame around the top photo.

Thank you for looking!!

Project Life Week 34, 2013

Hi Project Lifers! I used the Glitz Design washi tape to continue the lines of the label spot on the Seafoam Kit card. This gave me room to add the larger Week 34 American Crafts Thickers.

Using the Becky Higgins LLC. Seafoam Core Kit, and the Studio Calico Monthly Project Life Kit and loving them both! Horizontal photos are taken with my Nikon D90, and vertical 3x4 photos are from my Iphone. I print all my photos at home on my Canon MX320 using Ilford Pearl Paper.

The woodgrain butterflies are punched from Studio Calico More Woodgrain add-on (Patterned paper), and the sequin butterflies on the last 3x4 card on the right are from the Studio Calico August Card Kit.
Washi tape: Glitz Design
letter stickers: Studio Calico June Project Life Kit
wood veneer: Studio Calico
spray: Heidi Swapp Color Shine

DIY Cork Board Tutorial

This simple cork board tutorial has only three materials. Super simple guys whoop, whoop!!

 #1--Take the glass and backing out of your frame.
#2--Use the backing to draw a line on your foam core and cork.
#3--Cut out both pieces and I used my ATG gun to adhere the cork sheet to the foam core(to prevent slipping)
#4--Place in frame and fold down the prongs on back(frames with the metal prongs to hold in the picture work best in my experience )
