The the pitter patter of tiny feet in the Howard home…

Well.  Not quite.  It's not the pitter patter of little feet but I do have a new baby.  It's the pitter patter of tiny index cards as I shuffle through them trying to complete my latest Project Life page.  I'm such a convert.  I haven't been this excited since I discovered Mr Whippy will put sherbert on a Flake cone. 

That is serious excitment. 

Sharing my first week with you.  Single pages first and then what they look like together.  A week in the Howard home.  Kazinga.  Just. like. that.  Lovin it.

PL page 1

(Title card downloaded from Pinterest, days of the week digital overlays from www.thelilypad.com just days cards, cute kids have been mine for years 🙂

PL page 2

See – very cool.  Love. love. love it.

And a week all at once…

PL 12 May 1 sm

Not bad for a beginner?  Yes?

    Very cool Mrs H! I have managed to get support from KiwiScraps/Craft House in Wellington for Crop for a Cause 2012 – they are going to send me a sample kit and album to promote Project Life, and they will give me 25% of Project Life sales/orders on the day as a donation towards NZBCF. Fan-bl**dy-tastic!!!

    Hey Nic, how did you get the journalling on the cards? Cos thats a lotta info on there. I didn’t read it but was in awe cos it makes my handwriting look way to big. Did you use a printer, if so did you create text boxes and pop a few cards onto an 14 sheet. lol clearly you can see I am in awe lol

    Great start! I have just started PL this year too, and I too am keen to know how you have printed your text on the journalling cards. I don’t like my handwriting much so I have just been typing up my entries in 3 x 4 text boxes created in word and cut out. They can look a little plain, being on plain white card, but I have been adding headings in different fonts/sizes and colours. So, I have found I only use the PL cards when I occasionally write something by hand. Would love to know if there is a simple way to print on the cards though.

    Love your pages – I’d like more info on the days of the week border overlays. I searched high and low at The Lilypad but could not find them. Also, is it possible to post a link to the Pinterest “week of” graphic that you’re using? Thank you. I wish continued creativity.
