project life rewind : week 28 | 2012
This month, I chose to document week 28 of 2012. Having a baby last year threw me off track of staying “caught up,” so I have grand plans for this year. I’m hoping to stay current for 2013 and do one week for my 2012 album as well. We’ll see what happens! You know, because I'm only working on packing up all of our belongings and moving this year.
It’s crazy how much older my children look than they did just six months ago. I wish I could make time slow down just a bit!
[Left Page] Muffin Tin Monday. Dance class. Sleeping baby. Our oldest furbaby. Skyping with daddy who was out of town on a business trip. First baby smiles.
Freckled Fawn’s washi was an amazing addition to this week’s layout as you can do so much with it! In just these three smaller cards, I used it three different ways. On the photo of my oldest daughter at dance class, I used it as a background for my Micro Monogram alphabet stickers. (For the record, you need no other alphabet stickers for this project but those. LOVE them.) For the card highlighting a quote from our younger daughter, I created a border of washi which helps lend a pop of color to a simple white card. The third card features the washi as a way to adhere my photo to the patterned paper. Super easy.
[Right Page] Toddler attitude. Breakfast smoothies. Dressed for church. A quote and text. First tomatoes. Saying goodbye to friends. Talking to daddy on the phone.
Likely my favorite part of this week’s layout is this card. I loved the combination of the gold airmail Freckled Fawn tape paired with the Lucille Title sticker. A perfect pair.
The Lucille Be Silly clear stamps are a great choice for weekly layouts. So many options to dress up your photos and journaling.
And so there's another week in the 2012 album. Loving this journey.
Nice job! Enjoy your day!
