Let’s Go Fly a Kite

Life in my world currently is so hectic!!

It has been a blessing that this months challenge at Scrapbookit has been to use ‘Project Life’ style of scrapbooking.

A quick, easy way to document special moments and memories, especially for those of us who find photo placement tricky.

Have you checked out the rest of the months projects from our very talented design team?

If not, make sure you head back through the posts and check them out....they are awesome!

In my last post I mentioned how easy it is to use Echo Park’s Photo Freedom Kits. They have everything you need ready to go...5 designer pocket pages; 6 double sided papers and an element sticker sheet.

For this post I have used one of the pocket pages, it is actually a normal 12x12 layout pocket (see, I headed back to comfort!!) to create half of my double page. The other half is a 4 pocket page.

I have used the ‘Happy Go Lucky’ papers from the kit which suit my photos really well. The photos I have used are again from our Easter holiday in Moruya and surprisingly were taken with my iPhone!

Here are the two pages together...

The pages separately...

 And some close ups...

In both of these layouts I have used the following materials all accessible from Scrapbookit - either online or by popping in to see Jo.

Echo Park "Photo Freedom" kit; Coredinations Core Tags - Brights; WOW mask; Tim Holtz Distress Ink; Darkroom Door Wordstrips; Twine, Kaisercard.

Well, I apologise for the short post this week...as I said...things are rather hectic this month.

Don’t forget to get your take on this month’s challenge in by the end of the month. When you are done email it to joanne@scrapbookit.com.au.

I hope you have a wonderfully, creative week.

Project Life with Simple Stories

Hi everyone, Ruby here!
Life has been throwing weird and wonderful challenges in my path these days, but I still find myself really wanting to capture and document these moments. Project Life is a wonderful opportunity to do this without having to sit down at your scrap desk for hours at a time (unless you have that time!) to do so.
Here are two of my Project Life pages. As you can see, I have gone for the very simple approach, due to my lack of time.

All of Simple Stories' collections are absolutely perfect for Project Life, and you can find a great range of the different lines in the shop to suit your scrapbooking needs!
Just because some of the sleeves are a particular size, it doesn't mean that you can't alter them to suit your photos. This photo I had printed 5x7, so I simply cut it down the middle to fit it in.

I really like how it turned out!

Keep tuning into the blog for more Project Life wonderfullness by the Design Team- their work is great!
Have a blessed week, R x
