I am participating in The Mom Creative Project Life Tuesday as a way to keep up with my 2012 Project Life family album and finish my 2011 Project Life family album, as well as, make some progress on my sons' baby albums, which I am mostly doing "Project Life style". Since I am doing a monthly approach to 2012, I am waiting at the end of the month to pull my layouts together, so I don't have any 2012 pages yet. However, I have included some 2011 Project Life pages that I have finished this past week. I finished a few weeks, including our 2011 summer vacation week. We had a lot of pictures from vacation so I included extra page protectors and pictures for that week. Here are the pages:
Week of June 26th & July 1st-8th (Page 1)
July 1st-8th (Page 2 & 3)
July 1st-8th (Page 4 & 5)
July 1st-8th (Page 6 & 7)
Week of September 18th
(I included a 6 x 12 page protector in the middle of this spread. The front has 3 pictures of Eli I cropped and the back includes my birthday card from Brian and Eli. I created a "pocket" for the card just using card stock and adhesive tabs.)
Supplies used: Project Life Turquoise kit and cardstock, Becky Higgins Photo Pocket Pages, We R Memory Keepers Page Protectors, American Craft Page Protectors & Stickers, Other Cardstock - Unknown
In addition to the Project Life Family album, I am also doing albums for my sons. The first album is their baby album of their first year. I am MOSTLY doing this album Project Life style and using Becky Higgin's page protectors - especially the monthly pages. The papers, die cuts, etc, are mostly from Becky's baby kit that was sold through Creating Keepsakes. Here is the first month for my son, Eli:
Month 1 - Page 1 & 2
Month 1 - Page 3 & 4
Month 1 - Page 5 & 6
I am really loving doing Eli's baby album in the "Project Life style". The first month came together so quickly! This is why I love this system! You can learn more about Project Life HERE.

Lovely pages! Love how you are using PL for your son's album. My SIL is pregnant & I'm going to give her a kit so she can use it when she has her baby.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing!!
I too am using the 'PL approach' to catch up on two years of photos I got behind on when I as sick for a year...and it is fabulous! and satisfying :)

Have loved seeing your Eli's pages (I also have an Eli!). I am trying to start on my #4's baby album (while he's still a baby), and just trying to work out how to tackle it, so loving your inspiration. I see you've done a lot of pages for each month. And I also see you're using it as the 'first month' of his life, not '1 month old'... I'm still trying to work out if I do that, but I think I like it.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous boy and gorgeous pages! Can't wait to see more! (is there more?)
Nat - Yes, I have done month 4 as well and part of month 5 - I just need to get around to sharing it! For baby #2 (Max), I am going to use Becky Higgin's Project Life Baby Boy kit to try and simplify the process. Thanks for your comment!
