Christmas Altered Paint Can


Here is the Christmas paint can I made for a recent swap I hosted on the Cricut mb. I love this paper! It's not traditional Christmas colours at all but I think it still looks really festive. The paper was from a DCWV Christmas stack. The snowflakes are foam stickers that I found at Walmart and I thought they were really cute!

Becky Higgins - Project Life


Things have been very busy around here lately so it has been a long time since I updated my blog. I've been feeling a bit under the weather with a cold and the kids both have chicken pox! Luckily, they both just have a mild case since they were both vaccinated. I've also been quite busy with my new travel business and there just doesn't seem to be enough hours in the day for everything!
Anyway, I am pretty excited because I just ordered Project Life by Becky Higgins! I have heard a bit before about her Project 365, where you take a picture each day of the year and scrapbook it, but this is the first time I am going to attempt this. It's actually easier than scrapbooking a whole page a day... basically you can still take a pic a day and journal about your pic, but you don't have to complete a whole scrapbook page. The page protectors are divided up with room for your pics, journaling cards, and title cards. It looks like a pretty neat system and I'm hoping this way I will be able to keep up with my photos a bit more. I am really behind with scrapbooking at the moment so this will hopefully be an easier way to actually get my photos into an album! Then, when I have the time, I can add 12x12 pages in the album as well.
