2017 Project Life Creative Team


I'm excited to announce that I will be part of the Becky Higgins Project Life Creative Team for 2017. I will be sharing layouts using the digital and app formats (usually in combination). Since some of you will be visiting my blog for the first time I thought I would share the 5 layouts I submitted as my submission for the Creative Team:

 



 
Thanks for looking and please feel free to leave comments or questions. For these layouts I used the Project Life App and then added embellishments in the Over app. I save all of my digital supplies in Dropbox so I have access to them no matter what device I use.

'Twas the Night Before Christmas...

I love that I can have many Christmas season layouts finished before Christmas Day. We had so much fun with the bearded men in the family this year, so I had to document the Santa lookalikes. 

I decided to try some new candy varieties this year. Since toffee is my absolute favorite candy I wanted to give it a try.  It was so easy to make and absolutely delicious!

We are so fortunate to live near the picturesque town of Canton. The Christmas light display is always so special and the perfect way to get in the Christmas spirit.

Showcasing our Christmas tree.

Merry Christmas!

November Blessings

November was a busy month but thanks to the Project Life App I was still able to get some layouts completed. Usually during the Fall season I am seeking out colorful foliage. This year I was inexplicably drawn to the textures of the season. The more time I spent in nature, the more mesmerized I became with the beauty of the season that I had previously overlooked. I posted the photographs to Instagram as the Autumn Texture Series. The following layout highlights some of my favorite photos.
While I was searching for the best texture photos, I came across a nature trail on the Natchez Trace Parkway that I had driven by but never before stopped to explore. As I meandered along the trail admiring the beauty of Fall, I was pleasantly surprised by the Autumn sunshine and shadow,
Thanksgiving was spent in Illinois at my Mom's house. We enjoyed lots of food and time with family. 
While I was in Illinois I was able to check on the progress of the Habitat for Humanity house being built. This was a dream of my fathers and I wish he had lived long enough to see it!

So finally I was able to do a monthly recap for November. It was great sharing the month of blessings.
