Am I still keeping up with my Project Life albums? You bet, but that's not what I'm sharing today. For the past year my BFF Brandy and I have been working on her version of Project Life that she uses at Christmas gifts for relatives at the end of the year. In 2012 we did it in a day and let's just say that was anything BUT a pleasant day. After I made it clear that I would NOT subject myself to that craziness again we tried a different approach. Every month we made a point to sit down and work on a few pages. Brandy's PL covers major events - birthdays, holidays, and vacations that occur through the year etc. She uses SNAP albums and page protectors and generally that makes it go quicker and easier. That said, we did not one, not two, but THREE of these albums this year (all the same). So it was again a lot of work. The end results were really awesome though. I event took the time to cover the front and backs of the albums - paper is from DCWV's Vintage Collection and WRMK's Chalk something or other line. Here they are!
Another labor of love with great results. Brandy was thrilled and I heard her Mamaw even cried when she received her book. What more could you ever ask for?
Thanks for stopping by!

What wonderful treasures!!!!
ReplyDeleteSo glad you posted these. I made 2 albums just like these for Christmas gifts. I forgot to take photos of them though. I was surprised how quickly they can be put together.
ReplyDeleteI love you so much for tolerating me and my project life books! Really it is the time we get to spend together with the occasional glass of wine that is as fun as putting the books together.
ReplyDeleteYou are an amazing friend to do this with your friend Brandy! They looked awesome! I love all the little tiny details you put into the pages and especially the covers.
