Project 12: 3

I'm a bit late with the Project 12 post this month and I apologize! My goal was to have the layout completed and ready for blogging in the first week of the following month. This time around that didn't happen. Oops.

I used the March Life Pages kits from Gossamer Blue to complete this spread. Tons of goodies in those kits and if you aren't a subscriber to the Gossamer Blue kits you really are missing out. They are filled with exclusives you absolutely cannot buy anywhere except in those kits.

I started by making the two full-size pages and then realized I was going to need an insert. Even without including the girly's birthday party in the Project 12 I still needed an insert! Life just gets busier and busier it seems. I used rub-ons and stickers from My Mind's Eye to embellish the title card. I still love the Shimelle date stamp from an older Gossamer Blue kit and continued stamping directly on the photos and then on the journaling card using Staz On ink.

Close-ups of each page to show a bit more detail and journaling. I'm continuing with a more simple approach to this album in order to just get it done! If I do too much I get caught up in the details and then burn out. Because I still scrapbook 12x12 pages I don't feel this album needs as much embellishing. This is just a snapshot of our lives.
