Project Life

This week’s Project Life covers the week of February 25-March 3.

This week happened to be my daughter’s fifth birthday, so a huge part of my Project Life spread focused on her!

Her actual birthday was on a Tuesday, and her party was the following Saturday, so really, that was the majority of my focus for this week!  The left side of the spread highlighted her birthday, some party planning, surprising my son at school, and a nice note from his teacher.

This week included an insert– I trimmed one of Becky Higgins Design A Project Life pocket pages down the center.  I often love to do this for a quick an easy insert.   Since this week focused quite a bit of my daughter’s birthday, I thought I would highlight some of her favorite things.  What better to showcase than Barbie?

I loved Barbie as a little girl and my daughter is just now getting into Barbie.  She got the Camper for her birthday.  When I saw this catalogue in our mailbox a few weeks ago, I held onto it because I loved the oversized Barbie image.  I love how accurately Barbie portrays current culture (and has for so many years!), so I thought this would be wonderful to include in Project Life.

The back side of the insert shows my daughter with her Barbie gift and the backside of the magazine cover.

The right page focuses on Jordan’s birthday party.  Many of our family members were traveling overseas this week.  We thought it was neat that my mom, brother, and sister were at the Jordan River on my daughter Jordan’s birthday, so I included one of their photos.   I enjoyed mixing it up and added bits and pieces of what was going on in other family members lives this week.

I used quite a bit of the Serendipity collection that will be arriving in our shop soon!  This collection is perfect with bright springtime colors!
