Making Cards with Project Life

Posted on March 30, 2015March 30, 2015 by Josee

Good morning!

I hope you enjoyed a wonderful weekend!!

Instead of the regularly scheduled Crafty Friend's Monday posts, I thought I would take the opportunity in these last few days of Sale-A-Bration to show you this wonderful card set using the This Day Project Life Mini collection available for FREE through Sale-A-Bration! 

This Day PL

I think this is a wonderful way to create a whole set of cards- to use or give as a gift! All you need are the Notecards, adhesive and some punches! Of course, some of the cards could use some sentiments stamped, so any favorite stamp set will do! As with any project, you can make these as simple or complex as you like: add ribbon, buttons, coloured cardstock if you like! 

Here are a few of the cards close up:

pl card 1 pl card 3
pl card 2 pl card 4
pl card 5 pl card 6This card allows space to add your own sentiment stamped on!

 

Here is what you need to create this wonderful set of cards:

 

 

I hope this inspires you to look at your Project Life cards a little differently! Even if you don't use the whole pack of cards for Project Life or scrapbook pages, you can use what's left to make cards!!

Thanks for stopping by today! See you back here tomorrow for a final look at a Sale-A-Bration sample and the Weekly Deals!

Discover Project Life!

Posted on March 5, 2015March 4, 2015 by Josee

Good Morning! 

Today I wanted to show  you a little bit more about Project Life. As you may have noticed, you can get the This Day Project Life Mini Card Collection for FREE with your Sale-A-Bration purchase!! If you are a scrapbooker, or just wish you were, Project Life is a great way to speed up page creation to be able to just get it done! Even if you aren't a scrapbooker, the Project Life cards can add alot to your regular photo albums too- especially if you are already printing 4×6" photos.

StampingJo Project Life

If you haven't heard– you SHOULD be printing your photos!! The reality is many of us take so many digital images- especially with the convenience of our phone cameras- but we don't print them out! If we share them at all, it is usually digitally, like on Facebook or Instagram.

In the 'paper' version of Project Life, all you do is add your printed photos to the Project Life album page protectors and then just add the Project Life cards and journal cards to add your title, a decorative card and/or journal about your photos. So easy!! And more importantly, it's done!  Of course, if you want to make it more creative and want to spend some extra time on the pages, you can add stamping, ribbon, buttons, etc. just like a traditional scrapbook page.

Project Life is also available digitally, but that's a topic for another day! wink

ProductofWeek_SAB_week5-3In these examples, you will notice there are 4"x6" photos as well as 3"x4" photos. I like to print 2- 3"x4" photos together on one 4"x6" sheet! Whether you are printing at home or at a lab, you can create a 'collage' in 4"x6" size using various free apps or software. 

 

The best part of Project Life is that it can be a super easy project to take along to the cottage or a friend's house, or even to just sit in front of the tv!— all you need with you is an album, page protectors, photos, Project Life cards and a pen!!Stamping Jo Project Life Simple Done

Take it up a notch and bring along an Accessory Pack and make it super easy to add more detail and be more creative with the Project Life cards by adding the accessory stickers! If you choose, take it up another notch by bringing an ink pad or two and one of the matching Project Life Stamp Sets!! Then sit back and enjoy your album all done and ready to share with family and friends!  It really is that easy! The hardest part will be choosing the photos you want to print!! laugh

Of course, you can use the Project Life cards and Accessory Packs on traditional scrapbook pages and even use them to make cards!! Why not?!

This Day is perfect for capturing the airy essence of summer and includes fresh spring and summer designs, as well as great everyday artwork in Coastal Cabana, Daffodil Delight, Island Indigo, Rich Razzleberry, and Tangerine Tango. The collection includes 30 double-sided cards: 20 3" x 4" and 10 4" x 6". You can get it for FREE with your Sale-A-Bration purchase!! 

If you are looking for more Project Life cards, we've got some new collections available in the 2015 Occasions Catalogue! Check out Let's Get Away PL Card Collection, Let's Get Away PL Accessory Pack and Project Life Let's Get Away Stamps and of course, there are lots of Project Life collections in the original catalogue too!

3x Back to School Pages

Posted on September 30, 2011September 27, 2011 by Josee

It's the end of September and I finally got around to making my kids' Back to School pages. I'm really thrilled on how they turned out…I hope you are too! Let me know what you think!

The first is of my youngest who just started Kindergarten this year. I just can't believe they are all in school now. She's so proud of herself and is doing so well.

This one is of my son…of course…and he just started grade 4 in a brand new school. He's been doing really well and has already made some friends!

My oldest daughter just entered grade 6 and in her school that's the highest grade, so, it's neat to see how they are empowering her to be a leader. She is growing up so fast and now even has feet bigger than mine..can you imagine?! 🙂
