Project Life

This month’s Project Life covers the week of December 3- December 9.

This week is full Christmas mode!  I was inspired by Melissa Man’s awesome mini book to create my date pocket with our Be Merry Number Cut-out’s and layer it with vellum.

I tried to focus on muted Christmas Colors– adding lots of gold and vellum.  I love the overall feel.

There are so many stories to tell during the month of December. In my December Daily, I focus on highlighting a single event –usually it is Christmas related.  In Project Life I incorporate both Christmas activities AND the every day moments.   If I do touch something in Project Life that was mentioned in my December Daily, I typically tell a different aspect of the story, or offer more detail.

This week I included more big photos.  I noticed an over-all theme of birds-eye perspective and lights in my photos.  I included our Christmas Card.  I journaled directly on photos (a great time saver).   A little less embellishments this week and more focus on story and photos.

Are you new to Project Life or considering jumping in at the start of 2013?  I hope you will!  We have a lot of exciting things planned for Project Life in 2013 at Elle’s Studio.  This system of documentation has been such a gift.  It is so neat to be able to flip through the album and see each week of the year, and the year as a whole.

Life is such a precious gift.  It’s a joy to document and share it with others.
