Project Life 2013

After successfully completing my 2012 Project Life, I decided to try another one. This Project Life I want to journal more because I have a feeling in 10 years I won't remember specifically what was going on during the time I took the pictures. I also decided to do my own designs and "theme" instead of using the stock cards that are given. I guess that's what I really didn't like about the 2012 Project Life. It didn't seem personal enough to me since I didn't make any of the cards.


I'm not sure my husband was taking me seriously when I was asking him questions for his "favorites". He was surprised when he saw it in print - Ha!

Birthday page and ancient Chinese medicine

Here's a page I made for my Project Life book in celebration of my daughter's birthday! Since she was small I've been writing her a letter for each birthday. You may ask why I've covered up her picture and left her name out. This blog is my craft blog and while I would love to share all my photos, my family deserves that choice of being anonymous. So she actually does have a name! The letter this year was an adaption from Suzy Toronto's, Wisdom for my daughter.



I used all Amy Tangerine digital papers and elements. I try to write my daughter a birthday letter every year. I've been sick for almost all of January (28 days and counting). I came down with the pneumonia, which is now better but still suffering from pleurisy. I can barely get out of bed in the morning. It's mostly just painful. I decided to take an herbal route since traditional medicine isn't doing me any favors right now.


I don't know if it will help but it's worth a try at this point.
