What's new

WITL 2016 Day FINISHED 67 pages!

I am thinking about it. I'd like to do a magazine look. Or there are a couple of Liz's Artsy Journals I could adapt. A newspaper would be cool as well or Newsweek or Time magazine covers would be easy to create. Praying for new Shutterfly coupons -- maybe this Memorial Day weekend?
I just get nosy sometimes you know. And I knew it was okay with you. So thought I'd make you laugh
Hmm now that I suggest those magazines...maybe I'll go look at a cover or two.
 
Friday with journaling done!

LOVE love LOVE the pages!!!!!!!!!!! you go girl!!!!!!! AMAZING!!!!!!!!!
so is it to scrap just one week? or are you taking this as a start point to scrap every week in the family's life?
I had a look at it a while ago, when someone mentioned but then got distracted....

Click to expand...

see, I am like this....
in 2011 and 2012, I scrapped and printed a mixture of project 365 with 52 weeks...only every week of mine had at least 8 pages LOL
and I wish I could take more photos , but actually the story of now is well told through journaling for us... but I am loving going back in time and scrapping some holes or even better: yopu are inspiring me to take on where I stopped scrapping Sarita's years, which I did and print until 8 years old....

gorgeous pages, LOVE how much journaling you have , just awesome!!!!
 
@MrsPeel oh Cynthia, I have done this silly week in the life for about 4 years (last year I didn't because it was over Halloween and just too much going on). It is an Ali Edwards thing, I don't really follow her, as I don't care for her designs...but the idea is to just take photos thru the week. Normal day to day things and document them. Most people do one page one day. I have too many kids, and things happening to get that in one page! lol (this is why I can not do project life)
So, I am going to visit my parents, and I thought, what a great way to share my life with them, and let them see us "as normal as we get". So I will get two books, one for us and one for them. It made me a bit compulsive to get our lives in completely, and I took over 300 photos a day, and each day, sat and hand wrote the journaling so I would get the feeling of the day across on the pages. I started making the pages on Tuesday, and so I could see the holes of our lives, that I didn't take pics of, and corrected that the next day. So it is a very full book, of a just regular week in our very busy lives! lol
there are so many different ways to do it, and today, I saw sharons @sbpoet project life page in the gallery, and wow, she crops her photos in the most magnificent way! just jaw dropping, and @klee73010 did her WITL last year with a ton of journaling, and it spoke to my heart, so I really wanted to go heavy on the journaling. A story of our week..
yikes!
I ramble, but I would love to see your week!
 
@AnneofAlamo I so so much love your fierce passion for life.... you know you are one huge influence in my life, a person I look up to and that we are alike in some things I consider vital.... so I enjoy every page of yours, and the more journaling, the better!!!! I have come to know some people here through their pages and with you, over the years I have seen and felt so much ... you are a huge inspiration!!!!
I may do this.
I already mentioned to Carrie I am having day surgery on Friday, so I will let it happen when I feel ok to take on....
I love the idea of making the book for your parents too!!!!
I think mine will also appreciate something like that, my mum is always begging for photos!
thanks so much for the inspiration...and for giving us all a bit of that fierce passion!!!!!!!!:heartlub:heartlub:beat:heartlub:heartlub
 
This is going to be such a precious gift for your folks. And you. I'm much slower and trying to incorporate the last few challenges I have to do for May.
 

Done!
I'm exhausted, and scrapped out!
It is uploading right now to Shutterfly! whew
Going away for the weekend, and then
back with a vengeance for BYOC JUNE! Wow wow wow
 
omigoodness ann! This is truly awesome! And a Whopping 67 pages! I feel like I would struggle to get 14 total, a double a day!

I LOVE the cover pages, all the photos! You exude happy, which in turn makes me smile and feel happier. It looks like you used the same font throughout all your pages. Was it an album or just a mix of your own designs or templates?
 
I used the same font our Heather's the Branch for the journaling! I used templates for every page!! Most were from LynnG (and they are all on sale right now 40% off) I flipped them twisted and shouted with them! hahah. A few are also from our Amazing Liz, and then some are from YIN! (she is the master to the multiple photo double pager)
Everything the papers and any elements (I didn't use many) are all from the Lily Pad.
I kept the font at 18 or higher as I print at 10x10 and wanted a 24 pt spacing for easier reading. Journaling was my main point of this week, and although I had a ton of photos I really really love the amount of story that was told!
