Project Life 2014 - Week 21 Polly! Scraps Kits

Well, hello there lovelies… I feel like it's been ages since my last post and looking back, it actually was. Where is the time going? Is it speeding up, or is that just me?
I wanted to share with you all my excitement at being a guest designer this month for the fabulous Polly! Scrap Kits. I honestly could not be more thrilled to bits. Their kits are just delightful and I always have so much playing with them each month.
Here is my Week 21 that I shared on the Polly! blog using the gorgeous Tropical Twilight kit. You can see my full post here, how I put it together and see lots more photos of my layout.

Nighty night my memory keeping friends and happy scrappin'!

Project Life 2014 - Week 10

Geez, it seems so long ago that I finished this layout but I'm only just getting around to posting it now...  Okay, I get it...  I've been slack! LOL  So let's get to it shall we?

For this week I used the February Studio Calico Sugar Rush Project Life kit.  What a lovely kit yet again that made the layout very simple to put together.

Of course I had fun playing with my Close To My Heart Flip Flaps again.  I could honestly use them in every layout and funnily enough, I think that I HAVE on every page this year.

I really love the photos of the boys playing football at the park.  I wanted to include them all so used PicFrame to put three photos into each 4x6".  I saved them to my Photostream on my phone, opened them up in iScrapbook on my iMac and added some Ali Edwards digital words to the bottom of each pic before printing them.

So there you have it, my Week 10 finally blogged and in my album.  I'm almost finished my Week 8 and working on Weeks 9 and 20 simultaneously...  Sometimes I enjoy doing a few at a time as it keeps things interesting and  I find I knock more out, the more I have on the go.

But for now it's back to watching Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen with my Mr 8 (he's slightly obsessed with them and has been since he was 2).  While I watch it with him tonight for the billionth time, I'm taking a peek and having a little play with the amazingly gorgeous Polly!Scraps Pocket Life kit that I just received; it really is soooooo cute!!!  Can't wait to create with it.

Happy Saturday night

Project Life 2014 - Week 3

I am all snuggled in my bed with a nice cuppa. I have my Dusk aromatherapy candle burning next to me with the beautiful scent of lavender and rose calming me and helping me relax while I work on my blog. It's been a busy few weeks and sometimes an early Sunday night in bed chilling is exactly what helps me recharge my batteries for another week.
I have been quite surprised with how much Project Life I have actually managed to do considering my days have been so full. I have been working on it a little each day, 10 minutes here, half hour or so there, whenever I get a spare moment at night and the kids are in bed. It's my 'down time' and I so look forward to it; makes my heart happy.
So here's my week 3 layout that I completed last week.

I used my Copper Mountain Studio Calico Project Life kit which matched perfectly with this week's photos. You can check out the link for it here...

I threw in a few other bits and bobs from my stash along with some digital elements to jazz up the photos.

I used my trusty Close To My Heart Flip Flaps on the right hand side page. One in the 4x6 size and the smaller one was a 2x2 to cover a small note and some journaling that was a little personal about a rough day I had. I purchase mine from the lovely Petra Corcoran and you can find the link to her Close To My Heart page here.

Now this candle is starting to make me sleepy so best I keep this short and sweet and say goodnight. I hope you all have a fab week and get some of your own 'me' time.

Nighty night peeps :)
