PL2013_Week14

Week 14... here's a peek at our week:

Design A is my go-to each week. Although, thanks to all of the inspiration on the internet, I'm starting to admire other designs more and more. (I've got a collection of other designs in a binder, but don't break them out very often.)

One of these days, I *might* consider stepping out of my comfort zone.

Thanks to the internet, I had SOMEWHERE seen a small monthly calendar used in the 3x4 spot on a Project Life page and really, really liked that look. Hello, InDesign... I'd like to create and add a calendar to each week's spread. (I added it to my blank template file that I open and SAVE AS each week.) I like that I can easily add an upcoming week to my current printing load at Walgreens, if I am in need of an extra 3x4. Sometimes, I am adding some description below them; other times, NOT. I like the flexibility... no rules.

I had gotten away from a weekly photo of our calendar because I had wanted to have more handwriting. Discovered that I have LOTS of empty spaces left in my PL album to catch up on my weekly WEEK IN REVIEW and that I had kept up with it better when it was a weekly photo. Again, NO RULES!

Used Design H to add pics from our WINDOW project/PAINTING session.


This week, also included 8.5x11 certificates with handprints.


Got a bookmark from the library a while ago (with stickers on it) that had the PBS kids logo on it; found a PERFECT place for it on this week's 3x4 card - talking about Sydney's constant WANT of some imaginary invention that he saw on tv.

Journaling:Thanks to PBS... Sydney wants a CAT IN THE HAT Thing-a-majigger, a SUPER WHY why-flyer and COUNTLESS "inventions" from SID THE SCIENCE KID'S many "Super-Duper-Ooper-Schmooper BIG IDEAS!"
