Digital Project 365

I have been taking my picture a day faithfully but had not decided how I was going to do my album for project 365. I know that I needed to make it easy and doable so I can keep up and get it done. I started thinking about doing it all digi and came across this great blog....Yeah! This is my solution. I am going to get these templates..designed just for project 365 and do a digi album in 12x12. I figure once a week I can make time to do that weeks pics and journaling. I was going to put together my own template but this is much easier!! I'm hoping to work on the last 2 weeks in the next few days and then I will post them!!

The Daily digi....

So I was browsing around this morning and found this neat new site....looks like a great one that I will be keeping an eye on.....and check out the digi files.. for just $5 you can sample a bunch of designers work and if you buy before Jan. 22 you will be eligible to win loads of extra prizes!!!
I have not been doing many digi pages lately with my hard drive crashing and having to re organize all my kits in acdsee.....note to self....I really need to do that!!! Maybe today since it is only -14 degrees out and a good day to sit by the woodstove and stay warm!!
I alos heard about this great site that has amazing daily offers of one item....check them out!
peachycheap.com......
Well I'm off to get a cup of tea...I think my pic for project 365 today will be the thermometer that says -14 on it!!! Stay Warm!!!

Project 365 and LOM

Well I might be asking for trouble but I decided to dive in to PROJECT 365.....a picture a day. I thought it would be easy because I take loads of pics every day.....but now I have to take a pic to represent that day and journal about it......I can do this!!! It will be so cool to have an album of our whole year...so I am making it a priority!!




Another priority this year is organization!!! I am tired of feeling behind....of not getting to scrap from my heart because I need to scrap this event or that first....well, no more! I am taking the Library of Memories class with Stacy Julian over at Big Picture Scrapbooks. It starts in February and I can't wait to get going!! Woo Hoo!! Organized and never behind....I can't wait!!
I was just over at Faith Sisters and if you are looking for some awesome challenges you must jump over there and check them out!!! There are so many I don't know what ones I want to do. I would do them all but just don't have the time.... So check them out!! Faith Sisters

A really fun weekend!!

Well, I have not had time to post this week....but last weekend I was able to get down to my good friends house for a crop!!! I had such fun...it's been ages since I went to a crop (so much easier to crop at home since all my stuff is here!!) But Ella has just as much wonderful "stuff" as I do and she loves to share so....off I went and here are the layouts I got done.







It was so good to chat and crop and just catch up......I stayed over night and Ella even made me breakfast the next morning.....Yum!! I was spoiled!!

Altered CD case and other projects finished up

I made this frame for Brians desk at work..... a little present I just finished up! This was fun to do and sooo easy! I used my Scarlet Lime November kit....I really am enjoying their kits!! I like the way it turned out!!
This is the card I made for him for Christmas...he usually does not read my blog so I think it is safe to post these!!



And these cute note holders I made for the girls....I saw this somewhere on the web and I can't remember where. I cut chipboard to size and painted one side and put paper on the other. I used mod podge to seal it. I then decorated a clip with ribbon and clipped the post it note to the chipboard. Fast, Fun, and soo cute!

Day 23

Here is my layout.....today was writing about your stockings.. I grew up with santa filling our stockings the stockings were always a very big deal...lot's of neat stuff filled our stockings. I do the same for my kids now. The stockings were all hand knitted by Brians Aunt Barbra. We lay them under the tree and that is the first thing the kids can open and dig into while we get our sleepy eyes open.

Day 22

My to do list is the topic of todays prompt......I really don't have much left to do a few quick errands that I want to finish up today.....I think we are supposed to get some icy mix the next couple off days. So I am off to target...and Aldis.....and the post office! Have a warm day!!! It's -4 here!! BRRRR!!!
For this post I took my actual page from my day planner and used it as the journaling for the layout....it was longer than the page so I just folded it under......fast and easy!!
