Project Life

 

Welcome to another week of Project Life at Elle's Studio!  This week's Project Life covers the week of February 18-24.

This was the type of week where I had few photos Monday- Friday, and a TON from Saturday and Sunday.  We took a weekend getaway to Chicago, so I obviously had many photos from the weekend.

What I love about Project Life is that PHOTOS is not the only way to document your week.

The left side of the spread documented my Monday-Friday.  My trusty iPhone came in handy for the few photos I included.   I even used one of my brother's Instagram photos of him, my sister, and my mom as they embarked on a major trip overseas.    Elle's Studio's "This week at a Glance" 4x6 card (found in the Day to Day Large and Medium Journaling Tags pack) is a perfect "filler" for a week with fewer photos.

Even though I had few photos from the week, I managed to include an insert in my album.  It mainly documents our trip to Chicago.   I saved museum maps, American Girl packaging, and tickets to include within the spread.  

The front side of the insert features our trip to the Shedd Aquarium, and the back side of the insert features our trip to the American Girl store-- both were very memorable!

There were more stories I wanted to document from our weekend getaway, but that's when I decide a layout is best (rather than packing my Project Life with one event).   I have begun including my layouts within my Project Life album, since this is our main family album now.   I will likely create an 8.5 x 11 layout at some point and included it within this week.
