Project Life 2014 update

So far this year I have kept up with Project Life (yippppppie!!!) but I haven't posted any of my pages anywhere. The reason for this is that I found when I set myself a route of posts photos (on Instagram) of my pages, that I felt too pressured and actually ended up not creating and falling behind! Crazy I know!!
We'll this afternoon I took some pictures of all of my pages to date and am posting them here.
I was really unsure about my format this year. Learning from 2013 I knew that I found a double spread of the Becky Higgins Design A page protectors too much some weeks. I've been in a dark place for quite some time now and when I am I find that I don't really take a lot of photos, I don't notice a lot about life to document, but I didn't want to let this get in my way. Once I gave myself permission to be flexible, to do a double page one week, a single page the next (maybe even a 6x8 page when there really wasn't a lot to document) I felt so free! I've kept up to date ever since and I love the random-ness of my album! So her are the pages...enjoy...

Week One
This was a double pager as so many wonderful things happened!





Week Two
I added a small insert as I had too much for one page but wanted to let myself NOT feel pressured to do a full double page spread. Result!


Week Three
Using the other side of the insert wasn't a problem this week.


Week Four
A tricky one to create, to much for a single, too much for a small insert. This spread made me realise I could do with some more alternative insert sizes to keep things ve a free.






Week Five
This was a HUGE week for us! After all of our problems, all of the sorrow, we handfasted again. Such joy! As we went to Glastonbury to do this there were LOTS of photos and I used the square photos in one of my last square inserts. This week I also decided to use a different style for my weekly markers. Rather than a blank insert I decided to use a photo with text over it. I love the result!






Week Six
I was really poorly this week and fell a little behind, I didn't worry and the pressure I felt last year with a rigid album format was gone.


Week Seven
Still really poorly but this week included Valentines night away and Kei's birthday so I knew there would be a lot in here. Love the mix of sizes!








Week Eight
Feeling blue so not a lot of photos this week. That's ok though as I'm still documenting life!


Week Nine
Still low but starting to feel a bit more positive. Still loving Project Life, even in my dark moments.


Thanks for looking!
