And Week 3 is on the books, people. Welcome to my Project Life post for the week. Let's dive in, shall we?
OBSERVATIONS: I love this project. Can I just say that? It really does combine the best of what I love about scrapbooking (stories+photos+design) but breaks it down into little do-able chunks. Heck, it's even making me realize my own handwriting is pretty acceptable.
Aside from being more attuned to pulling out my camera (or my phone) and taking more pictures, I am also finding myself listening more, both for stories and for the things people are saying. Last week, I quoted Aidan from an overheard conversation. This week, I pulled a quote from an essay Cole had written about why he feels his school should do away with their uniform policy.
That I am proud that he referenced Pink Floyd should go without saying.
I also found myself out in a scrapbook store seeking out things I could use and add to my album. Imagine that! I bought stickers and staples. Some say I was completely out of control.
I'm still using the Day One app to jot down notes four times daily. This is making it really easy to sit down and type up my Week in Review card every Sunday afternoon.
Here's a look at the full pages:
I like the idea of quotes so much that I have a free card download for you today to start capturing some of the quotable phrases from your daily life!

This is a plain card on a white background. You could easily drag your finished quote onto any digital card file, such as my Days and Holidays 1 3 x 4 cards. Here is a quick tutorial showing you how to set the type and drag it onto a layered card file.
