Project Life 2016: Week 51-52

Wow, my last spread for 2016 is completed! It's always such a big accomplishment when you think about it. Granted, I'm over two months behind for 2017, but I get to start on that soon. Yay!

I've always liked blue in regards to Christmas. I think it reminds me of childhood or vintage Christmas colors. It's so interesting how God created our brains and how certain colors trigger certain feelings or emotions.

Project Life 2016: Week 49-50

This spread turned into a snazzy two week combo. As much as I feel like a failure for not taking enough pictures in one week for two pages, I have been happy to combine two weeks into one spread because I've been able to knock out my last spreads of the year faster.

BUT I made up for it with two spreads for a two day period when my family was here for Christmas. There were just too many good pictures I wanted to include!

CHRISTMAS!

Project Life 2016: Week 48

This week contains two spread because it includes Titus's birthday spread. As I was working on it, I was once again so thankful for Project Life. Before, I would have taken a long time to get to the birthday pictures because I wanted the spreads to be perfect. I still want them to look nice, but I keep in line with PL to get them done. And they get done right along with the weekly spread the birthday falls on. I don't move ahead until both spreads are done.

The birthday spread!  I had fun using camouflage for his spread because that's something he's in to and it sets his pages off from the rest. He liked it too.

Project Life 2016: Week 47

A "little" Sunday afternoon/evening scrapbooking suits me just fine! ;) Happy Thanksgiving...in February...

Project Life 2016: Week 46

I wasn't sleeping well so I decided to get up earlier and scrapbook! This may be a first for me but I'm just loving it. And I got a whole spread done. Double bonus!

Project Life 2016: Week 45

I got to use stars ( a favorite shape of mine) in this very appropriate spread. Ha! And I noticed that the forty-fifth week was when we elected our forty-fifth POTUS! I'm happy that I snapped a picture of my voters ballot and poll list including that I was voter number 684. And I even included who I voted for. ;) It's all part of documenting.

Project Life 2016: Week 44

Some layouts end up having most of the pictures taken over two days time - this is one of them. 

I've been trying to think of how I will change things up for 2017 so I've been looking around at some ideas. I'm sure I'll use the same templates since they've worked well all these years. :) But I need to pick a font, weekly stamps, and I feel like I really need some new paper supplies. I haven't bought any in quite some time. That's always fun to do.

Project Life 2016: Week 43

I don't always have time to sit down and complete a spread, so I work on what I can and save the rest for the next time. That's what this one came from - as simple as it is. Just a few more weeks to complete of 2016!

Project Life 2016: Week 42

I'm so loving all the fall color in this spread. Fall is a season that goes by way too quickly in my book. It's so beautiful. As I mentioned in this spread, it feels like the world is starting to quiet itself. I love that.

Project Life 2016: Week 41

Happy 2017! Man, we're knocking out the 2000's like nobody's business! We look forward to a great year!

I have a few more weeks left to scrap of 2016 and plan for 2017 in the meantime. I had some computer issues that held me back from scrapbooking, but I'm back at it now. :)

Project Life 2016: Week 40

This spread is all photos so that I could keep it in one spread even though our fall party was this week. I love all the green grass and trees and bright blue sky.

There are 12 weeks left to scrap for 2016 with only 7 days left until 2017. I'd love to have 2016 completed by the time 2017 comes, but we will see!

Project Life 2016: Week 38-39

This two-page spread has a few of my favorite things: dark, moody clouds, green, and stars. Some people have favorite shapes, and for me, those are stars.

Project Life 2016: Week 36-37

Due to lack of photos for these two weeks, I was able to combine. I believe I'll have a few spreads like this as I scrapbook the rest of this year.  It all works out and I still have memories documented, so that makes me happy!

Project Life 2016: Week 35

This week was mostly spent in Springfield, Missouri where we got to meet Connor, the newest member of the family.
