Project Life 2012: March part 1

As always, linking up to the wonderful The Mom Creative for Project Life Tuesday - be sure to visit her blog for all sorts of wonderful as well as links to a whole host of PLers and their pages. You can also find lots of inspiration at One Happy Mama! If you've just come from either of those blogs, thanks for making the jump over to my little corner.

I had trouble writing this blog post title as I couldn't believe it is March already! But it is - I have the PL pages to prove it!

Following my February focus on things we love, I've gone back to a non-themed entry - just bits and pieces of everyday. You know, the random moments that make it all worthwhile. I do, however, have a bit of a green colour theme going on here. At first it was accidental, but then I liked how it looked and just went with it. Here's the overview:



So, alongside the title card, you can find a 4x6 journal card describing these two snaps that Chloe added to facebook. This journal card is one of a Splendid Fiins camera themed set. Super cute. There will be more in other posts, I'm sure:


At the bottom right is a photo I took in excitement at the arrival of new stash. Adorably, it came wrapped like a present in beautiful black and while floral tissue paper, with a little gift tag. Of course, you know I was going to keep that tag, and journal the moment!


Next on from that in the middle row is a quote I saw and loved, as well as a little card describing my 'not quite me' day. We all have them, so as a part of my life, it's now part of my Project Life.


Lastly, is a card about Saturday night when my best friend came to visit. As well as the usual chat and giggles, we decided to go old skool and dig out the PS2 and get our groove on with some Singstar karaoke. We had a blast, and at the end of the night, we were wondering why we don't do this more often. So far, I haven't had any complaints about the noise from the neighbours! Luckily, both Chloe and my best friend can sing really well. Me, not so much these days - I was in a band at uni but that's a very long time ago - but I do give it all I've got!

Putting this page together has been as much fun as each of the moments and memories I'm documenting. And I just know that looking back on it in a few years time will bring both the memories and the smiles back again. Yay for Project Life!

Another big Yay for everyone who stops by this little blog of mine, reads and even leaves lovely comments. Your encouragement means a lot to me and I really do thank you each of you.

Till next time...

    1. Thanks, Kelli! With a teen daughter the photo opportunities aren't as easily come by but her facebook feed is a rich resource for photos I didn't take but will quite happily usurp and use!

    I know exactly what you mean about parcels in the post - I like to think of them as presents too ;)

    Love the card with the cameras on it - will have to have a look around for them.

    Thanks for sharing Jules, your album must look great with all of these wonderful weeks.

  7. I love your unplanned green theme! There really is nothing better than snail mail. :D I also really like that you added a bad day, as well as a happy fun one with friends. Loving your work every single week!

    Blogger hates me - I keep trying to sign in with either openID or wordpress, but the only way it will let a comment go through is if I'm logged into google. And I hate google. Sigh.

    1. Thanks, Sarah. I'm really enjoying the process of documenting all aspects of our lives, even the less shiny parts! Your pages are looking fab too - I really like your digi style.

      Blogger hates lots of us, I think - it keeps breaking my blog and telling me my OS is incompatible. Grrr.

  8. Love your page, the theme is working. It is great how you record such an honest slice of life, like new stash goodies and 'off' days.
    Thanks for sharing.
