Hi!  I decided in August that I wanted to approach memory keeping a little bit different.  The 'standard' project life layout seems a bit overwhelming for me.  Like most moms, I am very busy with work, soccer, laundry, etc. and I just don't have time to scrapbook weeks at a time. 
 
So, here is what I've decided to do and the goals I want to accomplish.
 
1.)  Create a album for each child plus one for Graham & myself (4 total)
2.) Create monthly layouts versus weekly layouts
3.) Album dates run August (beginning of the school year) through July
4.) Have fun and enjoy the process!
 
Here is Houston's August layout.  I used the Boys Rule - Project Life Value Kit and I absolutely LOVE this kit!  It is so BOY!  I think Becky did a great job designing this kit!

My layout pages will be front and back so that I will end up with twelve project life layouts.  Along with these, I will include one 12 x 12 layout page for each month.  I love 12 x 12 layouts.  They are probably my favorite because of all the white space which really shows off the photo.
 
If you notice, most (if not all) of my photos will be in black and white.  Of course, in the future I could always print color but I prefer black and white so the photo doesn't blend in with the paper and embellishments.
 
 
 
 
 
Hope you enjoy and have a lovely day!
