It's week eleven and I love this project.
click the photos above to enlarge for a somewhat clearer image.
Week of : March 11 – March 17.
What happened this week? Lots of doctor's appointments. I met with the prenatal coordinator, then my midwife, and then I had two attempts at the three hour glucose test. I didn't take a ton of photos but had some interesting ones from around the house. Paul went on a weekend trip to meet up with his best friend who's currently in Afghanistan.
Anything special in the spread? A simple insert with six photos from Paul's trip.
Techniques this week : Paul sent his photos with captions so I printed the captions on Paper Source circle labels (using Microsoft Word and the PS templates). It was an easy way to give the photos some context and unify the photos.
Overall thoughts : My favorite photo this week is of our local grocery store. It's something that wouldn't have made the book in a busy week, but this week, when there were not many photos to include it got in and I am glad.
Ratio of iPhone photos to "real camera" photos : 11 to 5.
Ratio of photos taken by Elise to photos taken by Paul : 10 to 6.
Supplies used : Seafoam core kit, Studio Calico Project Life kit (rad badge), Ormolu file dividers, Amy Tangerine "Big Adventure" sticker, de-flecto letter rub-ons, Basic Gray for Studio Calico letter stickers, Paper Source circle labels.
Tools used : Design A pocket pages, Design I pocket page, Fiskars corner rounder, Zig Millenium pen, Rotatrim paper trimmer, Office Depot date stamp, staz-on ink. All photos were printed at home on my HP Photosmart 2575 printer on Office Depot semi-gloss photo paper.
Project Life is a memory-keeping system created by Becky Higgins. I use photos, text and stuff to document our life weekly. You can see all the posts from 2012 here and 2013 here. Do you have a question about how I am tackling this project (including ANYTHING about how I edit and print photos)? Check here.
enJOY it
