Hello!
How is your week so far? In this part of the world it rains... And Wiola loves it! I don´t.... But anyhow, this is the day where I show you my progress in Project Life. Here is week 42:
For this week I picked a Sn@p pocket and the Theresa Collins "Life Emporium" 6x6 pad. This design has 6 4x4 ans 4 3x4, perfect for instagram photos.
The title card I made in the Rhonna Design App, the colors works perfect with both photos and "Life Emporium". I just wrote week- number- date to date. And a pretty flower. I love this way of combining digital and physical scrapbooking. And with this app you can make a card in-front of the TV or waiting for prince Charming...
I used some of the stickers from the collection and and cut white strips to journal on sens the wood paper is a bit hard to see.
Witch is what I should have done on my muffins card, but hey, it works and I love that pattern!

Hey Pretty Girl!
This layout I wanted to try something different, combining to really different lines; Prima "Epiphany" and Crate paper "Note & Things". I wanted to use the ephemera pack, I think it´s fun but haven´t used it as much as I wanted. So on this layout I used a big part of it. (well not really, that pack is stuffed!)
I picked pink, mint and orange this way the layout still look cohesive even though I use allot of different bits and pieces. On the right side I took a 4x6 ATC from the "Epiphany" and the title is the lovely gold letter from Thickers.
I brushed the edges with a mix of "vintage photo" and "pumice stone" (I used the same dobber with different ink, what can I say... I like to live dangerous )
Some black lace and gold dotted washi tape is just what the doctor ordered. Not to peak of some health ink splatter...

So in conclusion, don´t hesitate to mix different lines and brands, for when you do that the layout will be so much more interesting!
Have a great weekend, now it´s time for a walk with my pretty girl

It´s week 42 only 10 weeks left! Today I have week 41´s process video ready for you and of course some rambling.
When working with the "Design A" incorporate Instagram photos can be tricky. But try to see it as photo plus a journaling space. Here to get a clear spot, I used black ink and then a white gel-roller pen.
I wanted to add a photo of this cheesecake I made and the recipe but that would have taking up too much space. And I wanted a cute filler card, solution:
The pockets from Sn@p are so easy to use and perfect for adding for example a recipe and a photo of a cheesecake...
First here is the video:
For this week I used Prima´s "Cartographer" line, it was such a long time sens I worked with "vintage" paper so I thought it was time. I love this balloon paper and the calender from Sara Woordrow . Now, I couldn´t find the printable but you should totally check her out, she is amazing!!!
I have noted that Wiola is taking over my life, but how can that be a bad thing?
I hope you all have a great week and see you all of Thursday for a layout process video, I have a felling that Wiola will be a part of it...

Hej!
It´s finally Friday! I have the second layout made from this weeks kit. I fall head over heal in love with the two papers from Basic Grey "Wisteria" and for this layout I had to make them the focal point.
I love the cool colors of the white, blue, purple and black. The black I think is a very important part to bring contrast to the page, so that it not just flat. The black quote card is from "Good Times" value pack and the frame is something I made and I had to add a heart brad.
The title is made with tiny wood letters from Studio Calico together with a wood heart. This page is build in a grid and to bring balance I wanted something soft and what better then a ity-bity doily?
I wanted quiet allot of journaling but didn´t want to add anything more. So I journaled on the photo, that has allot of white space.
As a finishing touch a added ink drops and teal sequins. The teal adds some warmth and also some glossy accents dots just for the fun of it.
I hope you like this and the video
have a amazing weekend and I hope to see you on Tuesday

Hello!
Today I have a layout made with the same kit as I used for project life yesterday. I wanted it to be very light and allot of "white space". I started with a white cardstock that I had painted with left over gold paint (I hate wasting paint)
I love how the colors work together with the sequins, it just pops. The title I did with black and then cut it out with tiny and sharp scissors.
With the sequins I paired white tiny pearls give the layout that light touch of magic.
The one thing I would change is the journaling, I think I would rather have it next to the photo. That would make it a bit more "together"

Hello!
It´s Tuesday and I´m about to show you my week 40! For this week I made a kit for project life and two layouts. I started with two papers from Basic Grey "wisteria" after that I took some cards from the "Good Times" value pack from Becky Higgins. So this was my base and then I picked different bits and pieces.
For this week I decided to make a full spread for two reasons; I had so many photos that I wanted to incorporate and I wanted to use as much as I could from the kit...
This page design is from Simple Stories- Sn@p and I love that you get vertical and horizontal photos and the long 12x2. That strip of course you can embellish and use the space more then I did but I just wanted that amazing paper! So on this page it´s very bare, a title card and a few nature photos. The 4x6 filler card I just painted with black ink "The sky is awake" witch is a quote from from Frozen.
On the right side I have more I have more journaling. The October card is lilac water-color and black ink. My favorite photo is the one on the far right of Fridolf. I love the light and he fact that he looks normal... I hardly ever get a photo of him, let alone one where he looks good. I also decided to to take a screen-shot of my phone. I see this everyday but in five years I most certainly will have forgot what apps I used everyday.
I did went with a simple title card, witch I don´t normally pick. I tend to go with the cards where I can journal but sens I did a double spread I picked this cute one. Half a doily and the ticket is from the "Notes & Things" from Crate paper. So simple and the gold helps to bring the left and right sides together,
On this design you have two 3x4 card and I picked two from Instagram, one is of our Cinnamon-buns and one is from Wilna Fursenburg. The 4 of October is the Cinnamon-buns day in Sweden and of course that has to be celebrated and the other is just "hey, I´m in the art & design class"
The "October" is painted on watercolor paper and the cut out old school- pint & cut...
I also worked on have the heart brads on the page and I really like them.
I love this 3x4 from the "Notes & Things" that looks like a tiny book cover. And what better then a dymo label?

Hello Thursday!Todays layout is made with the same papers as I used for Project Life w 39 . I have said before that I wanted to challenge myself in Project life and not only use the same "DIY-Shop" but to try different things. So far I have used the Maggie Holmes "Flea Market" and Teresa Collins "Life Emporium" 6x6 pad.
So for this week I decided to take this beautiful paper pack from We R- "Indian Summer".
I started with a photo from the week that didn´t make it in to the album. I made it black & white so that I could use any color I wanted without thinking of it going against the papers. I also wanted to use more tiny embellishments, like the reins and wood veneers.
I hope that you liked this layout and video, have a great weekend and see you on Tuesday!
Love Julia
