Project Life | Week 12 - Laura Rahel Designs

Hello Everyone!

Another lay-out for my Project Life album. I found out I am perfectly capable of keeping my album up to date, but updating my blog is a whole other story! But I try to do it as much as possible! I just have so many things to do. So, my apologies!

Anyway, here is my layout for week 12!

I used one 12x12 photo on the left. It is such a beautiful picture. It is literally 1 minute away from our little apartment and it's so nice to walk around 'the harbor' (it used to be the harbor, but now that's moved.)

On the right hand side I used the 2 pictures I made that week. For some reason I didn't take any pictures! Can you believe it? It was Easter and I didn't take 1 picture of it! I feel so stupid! Anyways, the Laura Rahel cards make up for it quite a bit!

Hope you enjoy my lay-out!

Lots of love,

Project Life | Week 11

Hello everyone!

I can't believe how long it took me to write a new blogpost! Seriously! It's probably because I haven't been able to do Project Life for a few weeks, because our laptop crashed. Which means, I couldn't print my photos.. That was not cool!

Anyhow, here is my spread for the second week of March (even though we are nearly at the end of April).

I used mostly Laura Rahel designs, so be sure to click the link to Laura's etsy shop!

I used a Midnight edition card for the title card and a daydreamer card to write the story. 

I hope you enjoy it, because honestly, I don't.. I think this spread is one of the worst I did, but at least it's documented, which is basically the point right..

Lots of love,

Project Life | Week 10

It's been a while since I posted a Project Life spread, so I'll have two new spread coming this week. First off is this spread, I made in week 10. 

I found out we mostly have only 1 really interesting (and photo heavy) page a week, and one page with lots of everything. As is the case this week. 

On the left hand side you see a few things we did this week. We decided to sell our house, so we went to visit a potential new home (which didn't make it in the end) and we made our balcony look a little better by adding pretty plants. 

On the right hand side, you see the interesting day, which was a day out with the two of us. We went to have lunch, which was seriously good, and then went for a walk in the forest. it was a great day!

I also started a subscription with the Project Life kit of scrapdelight It's fun to try new things! So as you can see in the pictures, I tried to use a little more embellishments and I like it so far. I am still learning, but it looks pretty good to me!

Well, enough said. Enjoy the pictures!

Lots of love,

Project Life | Week 8

This week has been a fun week, but I didn't take too many pictures. What I did take pictures of was our little problem with the car. We were on our way to my sister in law's birthday when the car suddenly stopped. We waited for some time before the 'Wegenwacht' (which is the car service) came. So I had some time to take pictures while we waited!

And what better designs to use than the designs of Laura which had the 'trouble' card and the road card available! I only used her designs.

I am only showing the right hand side, because the left hand side is a little too personal too share. I hope you understand!

Enjoy!

Lots of love,

Project Life | Week 7

Hello you guys! It's week 7 up on the blog already! Time flies.

So this week, we bought a new rug and chair and the Mister had a bachelor party of our brother in law (to be..) The pages do not coordinate at all, but I had to add all the photos. So they look great apart from each other, but next to each other looks not so great. 

I decided to only add the pictures of the right hand side where your don't really see the faces of all the others, because I don't want to put pictures up of others when I don't know if they mind. And I don't know all of them, so I don't post them. So just 2 pictures on that spread, sorry!

I also added a Design E page protector to document the last day with our beautiful dog. It is actually the dog of my parents, but I was always the one who loved him most. They took him to a dog shelter, and even though I love him to bits, I live in a tiny apartment so I couldn't take him. Hence, the last day of Bruno (how creative were we when picking a name!)

I used:

- Midnight Edition Core kit

- Laura Rahel Designs (the hello life one!)

- The Gold Foil kit of Heidi Swapp

- The chalkboard mini kit

Enjoy!

Lots of love,

Project Life | Week 6

Hello again! 

So here's my spread for the 6th week! Time flies you guys! I can't believe we are halfway through February already! 

Anyways, the spread. I don't like how the photos do not work together at all, but I wanted to document all of the moments anyway. I just really feel like I need to capture our lives at this stage of time and I want to include everything. So even when the picture of a colorful bible does not cohere with the other (prettier) pictures of the spread, that's ok. (Yes Steph, it really is!)

For this spread I decided to use red as a 'theme color', I decided to go for red because of the pictures in the Sushi restaurant. They have lots of red in it, so I had no choice basically. 

I used:

- The midnight edition (again.. I just love that kit!)

- The road trip theme cards (for the red ones)

- A blanc card with a red heart attached to it

I also turned around two of my photos because they are too personal. 

Well, enjoy my spread!

ps. I am currently working on a mini album, which is turning out to be really awesome! So be sure to check back here later this week to see the 'result'.

Lots of love,

Project Life | week 5

Writing a blogpost in the train..? Why not?! Some of you might already know this, but I am extremely busy with my thesis at the moment. I am trying to finish it within 2 months and getting my degree within 3.. 

My thesis is part of the reason why I started Project Life this year. I am at the end of my student life and getting my degree this year, which is kinda important;) Something I want to document, along with the ideas of buying a different home, and starting a 'real life'. 

Anyway, that's the introduction to week 5! It has nothing to do with the spreads I made this week, but I wanted to say it anyway! Haha. 

So here is week 5. I wanted to go for plain and simple this year with mostly black and white, but (4 weeks in 2015) I decided to add some color after all.. I just love colors too much.. I still keep it simple but with pops of color this time.. 

And I did an attempt to create my own PL cards. I loved the one with the dots but I couldn't find a matching card. So I used embellishments all over the place and created the card with the golden heart. 

For this spread I used mainly my Midnight kit, a card I made out of 12x12 paper (the polka dot one) a card from the Daydreamer mini kit and a card from a kit I can't remember the name of (that's the one with 'love these moments'.)

I also decided to do a 'day in the life' on every last day of the month, so that id added in here as well.. 

Enjoy! 

Lots of love,
