January 2017 Pocket Projects

Pages 7 and 8...

 

Nice to see a bunch of layouts for January already. I've put these off to concentrate on MOC but now I want to get up to date. (I try not to say 'caught up' since it has so much heaviness attached to it for me.)

 

Week three is only getting one page. Not the best week for me.

 

An 'extra' page for week 4...

 

Pages 9 and 10...

 

And my first event page of the year...



First of all... I have to restate my love for the new template maker action set by Mommyish. I LOVED being able to use big photos and pick just the right sizes to fit my page. Second... I'm pleased with how well this worked with my plan for this year. It fits right into the flow of photos that I have for my week and I didn't have to worry about making it a double paged spread in order to keep the page count even!

Maribel / Mrivas, I'm really enjoying looking at your pages with the little dots between the photos that make the layout look like it's in page protectors. Would you mind telling me if you're doing that yourself with brushwork, or if that's a purchased set of templates? Thanks!

 

@Aerobigirl Maribel uses a product she purchased, but the lady retired... I know this because I too have wished I could have those exact pockets for my PL projects!! However, TLP does have some in the store. I use Valorie Wibbens' pockets, which are the same concept. Here's a store link to the ones that Val has: https://the-lilypad.com/store/search.php?mode=search&page=1

Hi, I just saw this @Aerobigirl These are templates and protectors from a retired designer (Gennifer Bursett). Theg are not available anymore but I keep using them every year because I like the page protector look.

 

Thank you @RebeccaH I actually used those in 2013 and always wished there were more sets in 12x12.

 

This is the most caught up I've ever been in PL... Hoping to keep it up!!

Week 4:

 

Oh my goodness, I have GOT to stop finding fun things to do in here. My family will NEVER see me at this point lol. I'm going to try this, and will do January's first to catch up.
