8 Months Later...


I finally finished my Week in the Life Album this weekend. The pictures and journaling have been done since last October when I finished the week of documenting. The actual album has been sitting in my to do pile ever since. It took me a few hours yesterday to put it all together. I used digital templates from Ali Edwards purchased from Designer Digitals, an old Studio Calico kit and baseball card sleeves. Here's the finished project. Sorry for the not so great photos. I'm on a time schedule this morning and wanted to get this done and posted before I head out for the day.













I like the way the album turned out. If I do this project again, I want to take a ton more pictures. I didn't have nearly as many pictures as I would have liked for this album and several of my shots were not so great. I would also keep a lot more ephemera from the week. I think it would be fun to have food labels, junk mail and other bits of daily life mixed in with the photos. I did a little bit of this, but I hadn't saved very many things.

I am happy to have this little project finished and have looked at it several times since completing it yesterday afternoon. Now if I could only finish my wedding album....

Happy Monday!

What a great book! I can see it took lots of time, so worth it though.
