Project Life: July 7-13

It was an awesome week for many reasons: First it was my first week of vacation...yay! It was also my son Addison's 19th birthday and my daughter Natalya's 9th birthday. There was a lot of celebrating going on. Even though my son is in Hawaii for 3 weeks. We did quite a bit of activities with Natalya. OK: so that was on the personal side. Now is the creative side: I decided this week I would use Becky Higgins plain lined journal cards and Doodlebug "Take Note" washi tape. I just adhered the tape onto the card. I love the simplicity of it, and the continuity of the entire layout.

I used a Doodlebug 4 x 6 "Take Note" card for the title card which happen to have the same exact polka dot design as my washi tape! Love when things work out that way : ) I used a variety of letter stickers from the Simple Stories line. I also used Doodlebugs Cardstock Stickers for the days of the week. If any of you know me, you know that I must have the coordinating date sticker on every one of my journal cards! Lol.

                                                                                                                   

I also added an extra page, Design F and trimmed off the last set of 3. I do this just so you can see the different layers. I added a label from my favorite Chibani Flip and a ton of other pictures. Since I was on vacation this week, I did a bunch of activities with the girls that I wanted to include in my PL. We sewed a lot and had shopping trips to Ikea & Michaels! Though my son is away in Hawaii, I still put a collage of pics on Tuesday in honor of his bday. We will celebrate when he get back home.

It was a glorious week and I feel the bright sunny colors of Doodlebug reflect my mood for the week! Hope everyone has a wonderful week. It's going to be a hot one if you are in the US on the East Coast....yet another heat wave coming this week...so keep cool.
