Last week’s Project Life was a lot of fun to put together. I finally bit the bullet and purchased the Variety Pack of new pages from Becky Higgins. LOVE all of the different options!
Week 12 was the first week I used Design F, so I knew going into Week 13 that I wanted to include a lot of little pieces of life to fit all of the pockets. Always a good idea to plan ahead of time, so I’m not scrambling for stuff at the end of the week!
A look at the whole week:
Left side. I love how this design allows me to include so many little stories. This week, I have a couple of M’s drawings, a grocery list, my latest pregnancy craving, and a few pictures trimmed to 3×4″.
I also love to include little notes to my boys, so I have one to M explaining the back story of his drawing and a secret one for Baby #4. I always loved those secret flap books growing up, so I imagine it will be fun when my kids are older to discover all of the secret letters I include in the Project Life books.
Right side. A postcard sent to us from Disney, a little love note to D, and the rest of the page is all about M’s first soccer game. Have I mentioned I’m a brand new soccer mom?
Insert for the week. I used Design D and just cut off the two vertical 4×6’s at the end. I wanted to include some of the fun projects we did for school (finally back to a little more structure!) and the back is full of sidewalk chalk pictures. I’m loving printing the horizontal 3×4″ size!

Love your pages! I too like to put a bit of my kids artwork each week in my pages – I think it will be fun for them to see one day! Last week I wrote my boys a little note about their school conferences. I need to do that more often! Great pages and thanks for sharing! MichelleB

oh my word, love that rainbow page and love how you include notes to your kiddos in your pages. I'll have to do that too sometime. This is why I love looking at other people's pages – new ideas! 🙂
