cultivate a good life by Becky Higgins

As promised I’m going to share my Project Life layouts with you. I’m not as far behind on Project Life as the title of this post makes out. I started Project Life on our anniversary in March after some friends convinced me I could still do it so while it’s my week 1, it’s your week 11 if  I did the math correctly. I apologize in advance for the crappy pictures. I’m still figuring out which angles work for the Project Life layouts. Any tips?

Now, let’s get right to the pictures shall we?

I used the Project Life Cobalt Kit – mainly because it was the only one left in stock – but I’m really pleased. For the Title Page, I just followed Becky Higgin’s suggestions on the back of the cards.
Week 1 Page 1 – Mostly about our anniversary. I included one of our courthouse wedding pics and a pic of us today.
Week 1 Page 2 – This time I used Picnik to create two picture collages that I just cut in half to fit the 3×4 journal card spaces. I included some of the meals we had, the name of the restaurant we visited on an impromptu date night and a snapshot of the temperature last week as well as my new obsession – Twitter!
I included a favorite quote by Gretchen Rubin that I think does a great job of summing up *why* we do Project Life. I used my Kiwi Lane design templates to make the wavy white part and a free font (also a new obsession) that I found on the internet. I just printed it off, cut it out and stuck it down. 
After recieving my core kit and page protectors I knew I’d want some of the  different sized page protectors so I ordered a pack of the 6×12 and Design G. Here I used the 6 x 12 to store the menu from our anniversary dinner. They personalized it with our last name even! (I blacked that part out – sorry.)

Well, what do you think? Go easy on me, I’m still learning! What’s your best Project Life tip?
