Today I am sharing the FIRST week in my fall album- the week of August 18-24 (you can see my fall cover page here).
This was that first week of school for my kids— always the week I begin our fall Project Life album.
This was also the week that the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge was ALL over social media! I documented it by sharing a photo of my kids doing the ice bucket challenge, a screen shot of my cousin (whom we nominated) doing the ice bucket challenge, and the graphics from the donation site. This was such a huge social media phenomenon this particular week– I just had to include it!
As mentioned, this was the first week of school– so I included a class list, and a few thoughts on each child as they began their school year. I used alot of Sycamore Lane in this spread. The cork feel in this collection, and the Back To School Cork Shapes are perfect for back to school!
To document the Ice Bucket Challenge, I used one 3×4 spot to slide in alpha letters to read “ALS”… I love how it highlights the goal of activity, and how it stands alone in the pocket page. I also used the My Favorites Stamp to create my own journaling card background using the circle stamp!
We’d love to see your Project Life album! Make sure you upload what you are working on to our gallery and tag the Elle’s Studio products that you used. We feature our members projects every Sunday, so make sure you check back to see if you project is being spotlighted in our “Project Spotlight” blog series.
