So how's your project going? I'm really liking capturing all the little moments of our day so far..though I'm journaling after the fact :) I'm keeping it really simple and using Janet's 2 Many Photos Templates (https://www.sweetshoppedesigns.com/sweetshoppe/manufacturers.php?manufacturerid=31) and La's Time Ticking Away Kit (https://www.sweetshoppedesigns.com/sweetshoppe/product.php?productid=20182&cat=0&page=1) for the whole thing. Various fonts used by Darcy Baldwin (https://www.sweetshoppedesigns.com/sweetshoppe/manufacturers.php?manufacturerid=7) and the title fonts on each page are Clementine Sketch. :)

Oh wow Traci...your pages look awesome! I'm taking lots of pictures (well at least for me...nowhere near what Ali Edwards has posted that she's taken however) but haven't really scrapped anything yet. I've put together a three ring binder with sheet protectors and baseball card holders but beyond that I don't even have a plan of action. I've started a page but haven't put any pictures in yet...let alone journaling. Hoping I get a chance to work on it tonight.

Psh, didn't even think about it... :( I totally spaced. I've been sick all week and never even made an attempt.
I think I have photos from both Monday and Tuesday (maybe) so I'll probably check my phone and/or camera and pry them off there and start scrapping...
Maybe tomorrow I'll remember to keep the camera with me more?
(Luckily my camera and my phone both have the ability to look up timestamps!)

I'm starting ours tomorrow, because of stuff we had going on earlier in the week that made it impossible to do it this week.

Okay, Traci, you are putting my pages to shame!! What is the font that you are using for the times? Love that!!
I've been keeping up with the photos and slowly putting them into layouts... using Ali Edward's WITL templates, but haven't "decorated" yet... using LA's kit, too.

But that would be too easy ;) I found it and got 10 swagbucks in that search LOL so kinda glad I did the search instead of waiting for someone to link me up :)
Oh and Traci I meant to say those are so cute!! I love how everything meshes so well together but is still really unique for each layoutFantastical Traci!!

Now I'm not sure I want to use that kit, my pages would pale in comparisson! I like how you did the time stamp!
Our days seem so boring since we both work and the kids are in school all day but I've taken a lot of pictures and have been keeping receipts and ticket stubs from a baseball game we went to earlier in the week. I'm going to do a true hybrid album.

I am taking all of my photos and then going to scrap later. I am so unorganized. I will be lucky if I just get pics taken. :p
Traci Reed
04-22-2010, 01:44 AM
Updated with my Wednesday layout! Come on girls! I wanna see yours too! :D
OMG Traci, your pages are amazing, so vivid and interesting!
I'm just taking the photos (although not in every situation) and jotting down what we did every day (but with no exact times) and I scrap them later (hopefully at the weekend). But I chose the kit - Kristin's Dear Diary (https://www.sweetshoppedesigns.com/sweetshoppe/product.php?productid=19920&cat=0&page=1).:)
I love the title on your pages "week in the life" in that Clementine font, Traci! Can I steal the idea, pretty please? :)

I want to start scrapping - but I need more Portfolio points first ;-)
Yesterday I had my husband take the camera with him, so we got a day from his point of view. When I looked at the pictures last night he'd taken pictures of all his co-workers. I asked how he explained that, he said he told them it was for a project for the kids school. I can't believe no one questioned that.

Sorry I totally read your question as "title" not "times". Maybe I should change my contacts.

Aww thanks! of course you can! As for the times, I'm just using the time from the camera that the picture was taken :)

Aww I'm glad!!! It doesn't matter what week you do it, it's a FUN project and I'm learning that I drink too much starbucks, spend too much time in the car and would rather eat out every night than make a shopping list :P LOL!

You know, I didn't think I agreed with that.. but I do now! I always though that it was less stressful to focus on documentation and then scrap the big event/project later.. but I'm not convinced of that anymore. I don't think WITL would have been possible for me if I wasn't just diving in and getting it done all at once.

I work full time and my husband and stepson were away for 1/2 of the week. I decided to not let obstacles or being boring get in the way of just doing it.

I totally dropped the ball on Sunday, I'm going to have to recreate some moments :-)
Jennifer I LOVE your cover!!
Melissa we work as well, spend 11 hours away from home and the kids are in school all day, but it is where we are in our lives right now. I still think the kids will love looking back on it one day. Thats what I see when I look at Traci's layouts with such great journaling - someday her kids are going to adore those pages!
