Elle’s Studio: Project Life 2018 Title Page

January 10, 2018 by · 1 Comment

Happy New Year Crafty Pals! Is that a Project Life Title Page I see? Why, yes, yes it it.

This year I am so thrilled to be joining the design team for Elle’s Studio. I have long admired Elle’s products; not only are they modern and fresh, they always gets my creative juices flowing. Above is a 9×12 title page for my family 2018 album that I created using the January kit which is currently on sale here. Major love for that “this is us card” which is apart of the main monthly kit, and hugs and kisses puffy stickers which I used to embellish the page.

My title page features cute pictures I took of my kids jumping on our bed. When the weather is -20 C here in Toronto, you tend to hibernate and go a little stir crazy.

On this page I have included small details, like our ages, our family motto and where we are living at the beginning of 2018. Love the mint green, black and white colour scheme.

Thanks for looking and check out Elle’s Studio here for more information /inspiration on the January Kit!

Happy Wednesday!

How is summer over? I mean, didn’t this just happen yesterday?

This week, I played around with two sizes of enlargements. Typically, I blow up the “best” photo to create a statement, but I couldn’t decide which picture I liked better. I love the picture of the sun setting as well as the one of Charlie, in action, getting out of the water. So two enlargements it is! Hooray for indecisiveness! On the left, I used Design A age protector and on the right, Design C. All cards are from the Dreamy Core kit, by Heidi Swapp.

Fun fact: the journalling doesn’t match all the photos. For some reason, I find it easier to design a page when all the photos “match”. Maybe I’m crazy, but that’s how my mind works. In addition to documenting our relaxed evening outs to beach, I also documented / wrote about our trip to the doctor and to Stratford to see the play, King Lear. Another week in the books!

Happy Tuesday!

No toddlers were hurt in the making of this Project Life spread! Promise!

You may remember a few weeks ago, I did some baking with my girlie in our new kitchen. We were in the midst of unpacking and I unfortunately didn’t take many photos from this week. No problem! I did take *ahem* a few of our first kitchen adventure. Eh Viola – a baking Project Life spread was born! I know this spread doesn’t represent the entire story of our life and I am ok with that. I am really good a remember the stress and not always so great a remember the small little fun details. Looking at these photos makes my heart skip a beat. I loved baking with my mom and I hope to continue that tradition with Rowan. And as the journaling card says, I didn’t make them from scratch – but instead from a box!

I haven’t used many of the yellow cards from the midnight kit. Yep, I have a whole stack of them just sitting in the kit. When I printed these photos, ones with a neutral white background and limited colour scheme, I knew immediately, that I could use 8 of them across the double page spread. It a very basic template but I like how stylish it is.

Have you used Project Life to document your recipes?
