Project Life 2015: Week 37

Most people say how fast they can get pages finished. Most times it takes me my afternoon tea time to complete a spread (1-2 hours). I edit photos, get distracted online, choose brushes, add text. I worked on this page for like three days. One day I edited the photos and placed them, the next I completed the left page, and today I finished the right page. While it wouldn't seem like it should take that long, it did. But I enjoy the process! Some days I have more time and other days (like today), I have other things to work on so my time is shorter.

Project Life 2015: Week 36

I've really been craving my creative outlet. I'm happy to have this hobby.

I'm a creature of habit and I normally like using pictures in the traditional size - rectangles. But this second page is nine squares. I thought I would give it a try. I'm not too sure if I like it, but I'll keep it for now.

Project Life 2015: Week 35

A couple weeks ago or so, I was reading about taking pictures of everyday "ordinary" things. I thought that I do that often but then got to thinking of things I'm not capturing.

Looking back at 2010 photos made me realize how the tree line on the east side of our property is so full now. Back in 2010, you could see the field on the other side and could see deer that were there. Now you can't see through it at all. 

That got me thinking. What should I be capturing now? What special things about where we live do I need to document now that might change over the next few years? When the days aren't hot and humid, I plan to take my camera out more and take photos around where we live. It is such a pretty area and I want to remember it all.
