My Life Monday - week 5

Do you ever feel like time is just flying by? That's how I feel lately. Maybe it's because we've been so busy lately. I just can't believe we're more than half way through February already. This is one reason I'm glad I've been documenting our lives with Project Life. Even though I'm only on week 5 I like to look back and remember the things we've done and also remember the days we didn't do much of anything.

It took me a little longer than I expected, but I was able to get week 5 completed. I had to add a couple extra pages because I couldn't narrow down the pictures any further. These two pages were the first three days of our vacation. We had rain and sun each day.

My title card was made using the Art Philosophy cartridge and Pack Your Bags for the palm tree, cut at 3.75".

The turtle was cut from Create a Critter at 1.50".

On the right side page I used Quarter Note for the Happy Anniversary, cut at 1".

The next two pages take us through the end of our vacation. We went on a helicopter ride, to a Luau and snorkeling with a sea turtle.

The helicopter was cut from Boys will be Boys at 3". The clouds were cut from Create a Critter at various sizes.

The hula girl was cut from Life's a Beach at 3.8". The little crab was cut from the same cartridge at 1".

This cute little sea turtle was cut from Pack your Bags at 3".

The fancy umbrella drink was cut from Pack your Bags at 4".

Unless I lost count I think that makes 6 cartridges used for these pages. I love that so many of the cartridges work well together. See you next time. Cindy

My Life Monday - Week 4 Part 2

Happy Monday friends. I was able to get another week completed for Project Life, but was not able to catch up like I wanted. I have a really good excuse though :-) My older son and his wife hosted a 25th wedding anniversary party for my husband and I on Saturday. It was a beautiful party with all of our family and friends there. I will share some of those pictures in another post sometime this week.

For now Here is week 4.

Not too many photos this week, but lots of journaling again. The title card is pretty simple this week. I added some strips of paper and then the date on top. I used Close to my Heart's Art Philosophy cartridge for the letters. They were cut at 1.25" and .8"

The last day of this week was the day we flew to Maui for our 25th wedding anniversary. I wanted to add a Cricut cut to signify our plane ride. I chose Pack your Bags for the plane. It was cut at 1.25". The last 3x4 card on this page was made using Jubilee for the letters cut at 1.25" and a sun cut at 16" from Pack your Bags, which I cut in half to leave room for the words below it.

That's all for today. I'll be back soon with pictures from the party and another week from My Life. I will also be working on some Thank You cards and some layouts to share. See you next time. Cindy
