You can watch the process video for this project right here!!

one day i'll get good at hand lettering, today is not that day though

            Project life is a simplified way to scrapbook. Your photos slide right into little pockets and then you can decorate or journal on cards that also slide right into the perfectly sized pockets. It takes away the stress that can sometimes accompany traditional scrapbooking. 


            Most of the supplies used in this video are from Studio Calico. Their monthly project life kit makes my life so much easier. I love having beautiful products sent right to my front door. It's a no-brainer for me because its so easy and lets me use new products every month. There are a lot of subscription boxes to choose from so explore and find one that compliments your style.

            The chipboard stickers are from Becky Higgins, they're on clearance and soooooooo cute.             

           I hope you follow my blog, subscribe to my YouTube, and follow me on instagram for more
project life.

Isn't it beautiful?! I love having a bright and beautiful lunch. A colorful lunch is so much more fun (and healthy) to eat. I still have a big bowl of this chicken salad in my fridge for the rest of the week. Meal prep success!! This recipe takes like 15min, and your set for the week! Awesome!

Another Mixed Media video for y'all :) This video has been on my computer forever just waiting to be narrated.

For this page I was inspired by Darwin's Journal. His discovery and his work on evolution changed our understanding of nature forever. Plus he had a pretty sweet gig. Traveling to tropical remote places and documenting nature. Lucky.

You can check out my process video below and see how I accidentally created a masterpiece (in my own eyes).


Now here are some close ups so you can see all the awesome details and texture on this page.


The title surrounded by some natural twine. I love how the letters are peeling up and how much texture the twine adds.

AHHHH!! that gorgeous shine. I don't know where that shine is from but isn't it gorgeous! This page turned out a bit more grungy than I expected but Oh well, Darwin probably dropped his journal in a puddle of mud once or twice.
