Project Life & Fishies

Sadly I'm way behind on my scrapbooking. Like a year behind. :(
*cue Stage Left* Enter Project Life by Stampin' Up! I was able to create this page in nothing flat thanks to the ease of use and great card collections that we offer! The two cards and all of the embellishments on this page came from the Let's Get Away collection.


In the past I have struggled with this particular layout because of the smaller pockets, and not having many pictures I could cut down that small. I saw a great idea on Pinterest that I can't believe I didn't think of. Simply cut one of your 4" x 6" pictures in half and insert them side by side in those smaller pockets! Super easy and brought some more life to my page. I will admit I spent the most time looking for the perfect picture to cut down the middle. Most of them would have meant chopping a shark or other fish in half!

December Daily

Hard to believe that December is right around the corner! I have a little stress relief however thanks to "finishing" today's project already.

This is my December Daily album.


I created it using the Cherry Cobbler 6" x 8" Project Life album and the Hello, December Project Life Card Collection. The Cherry Cobbler album is sold out, but never fear; the same album is available in Early Espresso!

I've got all of my cards put in to the pockets so now all I have to do is journal and add pictures, and I can keep track of my entire month of December 2014!





The great thing about this project is that I can move the cards around. I have a card on December 6th that says, "let it snow." If it doesn't snow that day, I can move it to a page for a date that it did snow!

Grab your Project Life goodies today and get your own December Daily started! I promise it will only take an hour of prep time, tops!

Memory Making

My poor pictures have been neglected lately, so I took advantage of today's Project Life post at Stylin' Stampin' INKspiration to pull them out and re-live my birthday.


The photos are from the Royals game that we attended. The middle card is from the Playground Project Life Card Kit, and the other two cards are from Happiness Is. They were all so perfect.

My favorite thing about Project Life is how quick it is to complete your Memory Keeping. This page took me less than five minutes to complete, and most of that was spent sorting the pictures and looking for the right cards.

My second favorite thing about Project Life is that it caters to my indecisiveness. This was originally going to be part of a two page layout. Once I completed it, I realized that I wanted it to go right behind this page. Since nothing is glued down, I can flip all of my pictures around, so they will face the direction I want in my album!

Take Me Out To Project Life

I've said it before, but can I say it again? I LOVE Project Life by Stampin' Up!! The pages come together so quickly, and I don't have to worry about cropping every single picture and gluing them all down!

I was lucky enough to get Royals tickets so that I could spend my 35th birthday at The K. A four hour rain delay might not have been so lucky, but that's a tale for another day.

I originally hadn't ordered the 6" x 8" PLxSU pages because I only had the 12" x 12" album. Then I realized that you could put the smaller pages in the bigger album, so they went on my next order! The smaller size was perfect to start my Royals Day pages because I could use the small pockets for my tickets, along with a picture of the scoreboard from our seats.


I used two of the Project Life cards from the Playground Card Pack to layer behind the tickets.

Check out SSINK today for more Project Life goodies, and stay tuned as I'll share my birthday story with you when I get the rest of the pictures in my album!

Love For Love Story

It has been YEARS since I have printed pictures; until last weekend. I printed 330 pictures! I still love My Digital Studio, but Project Life has gotten me really excited about Memory Keeping. My newest Project Life by Stampin' Up! Card Collection Kit is Love Story.

A small selection of the cards you get

One of my favorite thing about these Project Life cards is that I can also use them to make cards, which is what my true passion is.


For this card, I took of the the 4" x 6" cards from Love Story and trimmed it down to 4" x 5-1/4". I stamped the Happy Birthday and one of the flower images from Bloom With Hope hostess exclusive stamp set. I colored the flowers with Rich Razzleberry and Old Olive Blendabilities. I also lined the banner at the top with the Rich Razzleberry Blendabilities. Then I mounted it on a Wisteria Wonder base and I was done! So easy.

July Card Sketch

The July card sketch at Stylin' Stampin' INKspiration was inspired by Project Life.


Naturally, I grabbed my Project Life by Stampin' Up! card kits and started browsing for the perfect ones. I was actually looking for one that I could stamp on, or embellish with some stamps and punches. However, when I came across the two cards I used, they were perfect; and I was set.


I was going to dye some ribbon with Tempting Turquoise, but I almost fell asleep last night working on this card; so I left it on the table and headed to bed. When I got up this morning and looked at it, I decided that it didn't need the ribbon afterall. It did need a little embellishment at the top of the You + Me card though. I colored one of the wood hearts with the Medium Cherry Cobbler Blendabilities and flanked it with two Cherry Cobbler buttons from the Regals assortment.

Please play along with us, by linking up your July sketch inspired project at Stylin' Stampin' INKspiration!

My Project Life

You've seen a few cards that I've made thus far with my new Stampin' Up! Project Life Assortment Packs. Today I've got some real deal, Project Life scrapbook pages to share with you! Two+ years and 199 posts and this is the first time that I've ever shared non-digital scrapbook pages that actually have pictures on them. I'd say this qualifies as a significant occasion!


Yes, I did have to stand on a folding chair to get this picture of the two page spread together. Would you like a closer view?


On the first page, I really wanted to focus on the pictures so I just used one journaling card and no other embellishments. I was happy when I came across this card in the Everyday Adventure Project Life Card Pack, as it had rained on us during the walk that most of these pictures were captured on. The detail on the card reminded me of raindrops.


I really liked the layout for this page as it gave me more room to journal more about each picture. The wooden arrow came in the Everyday Adventure pack, and made a fun addition to the page to mark the trail. Did you catch the blocks where I used punches on this page?

My overall opinion of Project Life is a positive one. I like how quickly pages can come together. I also like that with some of the detail on the printed cards, you don't need to spend a great deal of time adding lots of embellishments to the page.
