Project Life Catch Up - Weeks 14-17 2015


Hey guys! Yes, I am still alive, just really busy and dealing with a lot here at home. The end of the school year is always busy for us teachers, but I had the added stress of a flooded basement (and scrap space). I have my new setup now in my dining room, and I have been busy! Check it out:

There is just enough room for us to eat around the edges, lol. So grateful that I have a supportive family! Sara and all of the Creative Team at Take 10 has also been super supportive of me, taking on my Monday post before I had this scrap space set up. Thanks all! Now, on to what I have been working on since my last post!

Week 14 was a busy one, especially with Easter. I always have a lot of pictures to scrap after Easter weekend. I love with Project Life how I can get so many pictures into one layout, especially using the collage app, PicFrame. For this week, I primarily used my Studio Calico kit from April, Lisse Street, but as always, I use a hodgepodge of bits and pieces from here and there! Here is the left side:


And the inserts - I had to use two of them!

 Now, on to week 15! For this week, I used my Stampin' Up! Happiness Is kit that I won during a Becky Higgins hide and seek event. I finally ordered the matching embellishments, and could not wait to use it! Here is the left side, plus an insert:



I had to use two inserts again this week, because we took a little side trip to Des Moines for a wedding, so of course that means extra pictures! Here are the middle inserts:


And the right hand page, with the other side of the insert:


Phew! I love the colors of this kit, they really went well with my pictures this week! 

On to week 16! For this week, I used up some more of my Studio Calico April kit, plus some cards from the Project 52 core kit. Here is the left side:


And only one insert this week, lol:



I really love that Design G insert, it is so versatile! And here is the right side:



If you have hung in with me this far, we are almost done! Now for week 17. For this week, I was creating for the Take 10 kits Creative Team. I really love the May kit, the colors are so bright and cheerful! I also used my April and May Studio Calico kits and their paper pads. Everything went together so nicely! The embellishments in the Take 10 May Glam bag are awesome, and I could not stop putting them on my pages, lol. Here is the left side:


Just one small insert this week:




And the right side:



I hope you were able to make it through all of that, hopefully now I can post on a more regular schedule since school is out. We are still dealing with a lot of stuff with our basement, mostly just purging stuff we don't need anymore, and making design decisions, etc., but I am so excited for my new scrap space. It will probably not be all done until the end of summer, so until then, you can find me scrapping on my dining room table! Don't forget to head over to Take 10 kits, you can take 10% off your purchase using the code take10. Thanks for looking!
