I made some 3x4 cards!

For my monthly scrapbook night, we are starting a Project Life group. Right now we are planning on exchanging 3 x 4 cards so, I made a few today. 

I decided I should get out all those "good" fortunes I save from my fortune cookies and use the fortunes for "sayings". I only keep the good ones! 

Project Life January

Here are some inserts I made and a page from my Project Life January

After I put January together, I realized I wasn't in any of the pictures. I was MIA. Probably because I was sick all of January. I'm sure I was quite a sight!

  

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.

My Project Life

I got a lot done with my Project Life. I’m all caught up with printing the pictures! I realized I hardly took any pictures for the month of February. I think the 4x6 monthly header cards the kit comes with, I will change. 

Back to work today! Spring break was so relaxing. It would have been even better if my daughter had the same days off as me but it was nice to be able to drop and pick her up from school.

I feel very fortunate to have a student teacher right now. I managed to injure my foot within the last 8 days and it would be really tough to walk my class from place to place without my student teacher.

This morning I thought maybe it was better but after walking from my car to my classroom, I realized it's not any better. In fact, it was throbbing by 8:30am. I can't say I even have a great story to go along with this injury. If you can come up with a good story for what would have caused this, pass it along to me.
