Yippee it’s week three! So I am cruising along into 2013 and slowly getting into the swing of this years Project Life Album. As the school holidays are coming to an end life is heading  back into its usual routine. This week includes an insert. No special occasion rather just for a bit of fun. Let’s get into it shall we?

Left Side. Sticking with the oranges and blues from the Becky Higgins Seafoam kit this week.

I note that the printing on my “RECORDED” journal card didn’t quite line up with the lines but you know what? I’m ok with that. I’m never after perfection and sometimes you just have to concentrate on getting it done. I’m learning to let go of trying to get things looking just so and concentrating on just getting the pictures and stories out. It’s rather liberating I must add. “So stop focusing on it then!” you’re thinking…… I hear ya… let’s move on.

This is the right hand side of my layout. Just bits and bobs of our daily lives really. My favourite part of this page is the top right photo. Not because it’s a great photo but because of the story behind it. “Go clean your room” I said to Calvin because as you can see it needs it. He went into his room alright but cleaning was the last thing on his mind instead he plonked himself amongst it all, pulled out a book and started reading. As a mother this is a dilemma for me. Do I tell him off for not doing as he is told and tidying up or commend him for choosing a wonderful activitylike reading? …. Kids….

Here is the insert. It’s the Becky Higgins solid 6×12 design. All one solid space. I have used it in the past for tall photos but this time I made this little layout of the outtakes of Lnicoln from our cover page photo shoot. Now I know that sounds all professional “photo shoot” but, really it was just us in a park with some numbers and a camera. As Lincoln was setting up for his shot he started messing around with the “3″ and I just kept clicking. So glad I did. It’s just fun. Apart from the “Smile & Laugh” and the round mat underneath this is all digital then printed. I don’t have this as a template but if there is demand I can easily create it. Let me know.

This is the other side of the insert. Yup, just me & a whole lot of writing.

Finally below is the full layout (minus insert).

Hope you enjoyed my week 3. This is my favourite of the year so far. (haha!)

Thanks For Dropping In
