Project Life Thursday

We're back this week with our Project Life Thursday.  Our family reunion last week, has put us all a bit behind with just about everything.  We hope to be back on schedule now. 

This week, we have a page from Liesl's book.  Thanks Liesl for sharing.



This is her June photo a day list.  Can't believe she's still on track for a photo a day!  I tried that one year....I made it to March.

These sticker letters from Simple Stories, SN@P Collection, are perfect for Project Life.  Great picture Liesl!

Great idea!  Include a screen shot from your phone in your book.

MFT Stamps released some wonderful, Fall stamps and dies for August. I can't wait to try the Plaid Builder stamp set.  I've seen some great background made with it!!  Also, back again this year, is the leaf stamp and coordinating die.  It was so popular last year!  Be sure to visit our MFT Pinterest Board for some great MFT inspiration.

Project Life Thursday

Sorry we missed our Project Life Thursday post last week.  Here's a peek at one of the pages from my Project Life book.


 
 The journaling cards I used this week are from the Midnight Project Life kit.  I added a wooden element from Studio Calico's Snippits collection, and the little ticket is from Basic Grey's Knee Highs and Bow Ties collection.  It was included in the pack of die cut and transparencies pieces.

 I used some red ink and the the Document It - Right This Way stamp set from MFT Stamps to stamp the arrows on the journaling card.  The FUN circle is also from the Knee Highs and Bow Ties die cut and transparencies pieces from Basic Grey.  I believe the heart die cut is from Crate Paper's Pier collection.


For my title piece I used one of the banners from Heidi Swapp.  I added the red transparency piece from the Basic Grey Knee Highs and Bow Ties die cut set and the letters are from Simple Stories SN@P collection.  I love this letter set!  You get an entire sheet in several colors of the letter tiles and a larger letter set in each of the colors.  It's a must for Project Life.

Have fun creating!
