Project Life: September 29 thru October 19

It has really been a busy fall season so far. I might just start blogging every other week...that seems more do-able! So let's jump right in, I have 3 weeks to share with you! Week September 29th thru October 5th. I used Becky's plain lined journal cards. I decorated them with Bella Blvd. Snapshot tabs. They come in a variety of different tabs and only cost $1.25! So I was able to write the days of the week on each card....which you all know I LOVE doing this for continuity! I also used the Bella Blvd. Snapshots paper for the date card . It was a simple week that took minutes for each card : ) and that makes me happy. As far as that week went, we added a new family favorite to our menu: Lasagna roll-ups! I am so happy my hubby cooks, can I just put that out there now? Also Bryan & I had a date day, which is always lovely.







The week of October 6th thru the 12th I used the new Christian Edition from Digital Project Life. Paulina had her two solo's in the choir at church on Sunday. So I started with the "I will praise Him" card on Sunday. Then just figured it flowed nicely and the colors were simple. So I just continued the rest of the week. I do have an added page which is "Page Protector G". We started an awesome tradition this week. We have a "Daddy and Natalya Night" & a "Momma & Paulina Night". We did dinner and different activity. The girls LOVED it! It was an awesome way to spend quality time with the girls individually. My husband journaled the entire night he spent with Natalya. We look forward to next month when we swap! That was the entire extra page from that evening. This week was also Paulina's first Junior high dance...it was quite an exciting week for the Rozinski family!







Last week, October13 thru the 19. I used the "Just Add "Color" Edition from HSN. LOVE, this Edition!! The girls had a birthday/Costume Party to go to. I did a little photo shoot of them. So I got to add an extra page with all those fun funky squares! On the other side I did a layout of the latest craze the girls are currently in to. Love the extra pages in a week, it kinda perks up the ordinary. On the second half of the week, I used Elsie & Emma's the Sunshine Edition's journaling cards. I loved the fun colors and figured it would be a perfect addition to any of the kits I already have! So that is the past 3 weeks of my life. Thanks for stopped by and checking out my blog.

Project Life: September 22-28th

This may have been one of my favorite weeks to do! It was probably only the second time I have created my own title cards AND journal cards..yay me! I used an old autumn line from Imaginisce. I did this due to the first day of autumn falling on the current week : ) I also used a few autumn cards from Becky's Season's Edition. I am in love with the fall colors to begin with, but I love how they all fell into place. And considering it was a few lines mixed, I was happy with the results. I also added, for the first time, some of the "Just Add Color" Edition! Oh, how I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this edition! I couldn't wait to use it. But I had already made up my fall cards for this week...so...I did what any other crafty girl would do.... I added another page for the week : ) Yay me again! I had gotten my 2 girls a few new outfits for fall since they are growing like weeds! I asked them to try them on to make sure everything fit. Then I glanced outside and the sun was just starting to go down. You know, that part of the day when the sun glows that beautiful orange? My FAVORITE time to take pics. So I asked the girls to do a quick fall photo shoot. It took about 15 minutes and the pictures were gorgeous! That me me happy! AND it even made me happier because I needed to add an addition page to my week...yay! SO that is how I got to squeeze in "Just Add Color" to my week.  I used mostly orange and yellow for my daughter Paulina. Then used Yellow and green for my other daughter Natalya. They blended perfectly with my fall layout too.
Hope everyone has a great week. I am linked up with Jessica at The Mom Creative Blog!

Project Life: Week 38: September 15th - 21st

This week I used all digital. I am loving the Dear Lizzy lines! This week I used the Polka Dot Edition that I downloaded here at Digital Project Life. I love that I can go there and for $6.99 or less (usually because I wait till they go on sale) and download a new kit! I also used Dear Lizzy printed chipboard shapes that I got from Amazon. This week I was a little inspired by Amy Tan and all her embellishing. I love how unique her pages look. So I decided to add a few more doo dads, and word stickers. I also strayed from my typical 4 x 6 picture format and used a few of my instagram pictures. That allowed me some more room to be creative. I also used more buttons : )




Love my Pumpkin Spice Soy  Latte's at Starbucks!




This week I also ordered my "Just Add Color" kit from HSN. By following Becky on Instagram, she posted that you could order the kit early! Yahoo! So you know I did! I actually got it on Tuesday! The day it premiered on HSN! I was soooooo excited to get this kit. The ONLY reason I did not use it yet, is because I have already made up cards for the next few weeks. But I did add a few of the stickers to this week layout. If you haven't made up your mind to purchase this kit, do it! It is so cool and I LOVE the idea of getting the page protectors too! Because with all those odd square cards, you need those protectors! So whatcha waiting for?  Go here and check it out!
Anywho, here is the complete week! Have a wonderful week & thanks for stopping by and checking out my blog. I will be linked up with Jessica at The Mom Creative Blog!

Project Life: September 8th - 14th!

Project Life was so much fun this week! I used a core kit that was an exclusive to Archiver's Stores. It is called the Slate Edition. As soon as I heard about this core kit I immediately called the closest Archivers...which is in Ohio! I live in PA, there isn't one Archivers in the stinkin' state! It cost more money than I usually pay for a core kit, but I liked the colors and knew I would use it in pieces as I do most of my kits. I ordered it in late May and it didn't arrive until late August...talk about anticipation! I used primarily all the red cards. That started simply by my husband wearing a red t-shirt on Sunday evening for the first photo that started the week. And there you have it, the complicated strategy I use for choosing my color scheme/core kit for the week. Haha! But anywho, the week was taken over by cute little kittens, wet & dry. I also used buttons that I bought on Etsy from Flair for Buttons! I love these buttons! I have ordered a ton! I have ordered ones that have to do with summer, coffee, camera's...you name it, she has it! It adds such a cute touch! And they are made beautifully & are inexpensive! Check her site out! Below is a camera button! Cute! I also used Doodlebug's Teensy Type Letters in Ladybug and Boutique Brads in Ladybug.



Here is the left side/Sunday through Tuesday:

 The entire layout...lovin' the red!!

Project Life: September 1st-7th

I loved doing this week's layout! I used just about every kit I own (which is roughly 7 physical & 8 digi!). But I used only orange and yellow. I felt with the first day of school and the beginning of September, I was feeling a bit "fallish". I also added an Amy Tan design for the title card. Loved how it all came together and gave the exact feel I wanted. I also added a lot of letter stickers. I have such a huge stash of these and since I really never scrap in 12 x 12 format any longer, I thought I'd put those letters to good use! A ton of events took place this week...Of course there is the first day of school. This went very smoothly as I am very fortunate to have two girls who actually love school. So we were up early curling hair and getting ready. But biggie was our kittens. Yes, we are officially the crazy cat family...now with a grand total of 5 cats! Yikes! An employee of my husbands found these 3 kittens in a wood pile abandoned. She kept one and the suckers we are, kept the other 2 brothers. But OMG, are they stinkin' adorable!!!! And so lovable! So they basically dominated the week-even over the first day of school. So here are the entire layout:

I also added an extra page. It is Becky's Design G. I highlighted each of my girls with a bit of info.




Hope everyone has an awesome week!

Project Life: August 18th-31st

This was once again a whirlwind of a 14 day period! Two weeks FLEW by! I never even had a chance to blog last week. Hopefully once my beautiful chickies are back in school (in less than 48 hours : ) I will go back onto a steady schedule.
For week 34, which was the 18th through the 24th, I used the 5th and Frolic Edition. Though I must admit, I'm over that edition already. I literally used it twice...oh, well, maybe I'll use a few pieces here and there. I did add some letting to the date card. These letter's I've had in my stash for years. they are by Sassafras. I'm not even sure if they are in existence anymore! Ha, but I do love their letters! I also added washi tape to most of the journaling cards. They were definitely lacking pizazz. On a personal note, this was the week I took my son back to college : ( He is a sophomore this year. So it was easier...OK, it was super easy compared to the heartbreak last year. there was also crating, new rain boots and fireworks this week. On a scale of 1 to 10, I give this week an 8.



 The rain boots shot, I love! I made it black and white. Then on my iPad, I used the app ColorSplash. Love, love, love this app! So easy to use and stunning results. It's an easy way to change up your normal 4 x 6 photo's~


 For week 35, August 25th-31st, I used the beautiful Dear Lizzy Neapolitan Collection from the Digital Project Life website. I'm a little obsesses with this collection! As I have now discovered there is a ton of this collection out there!! Ahhh! So you will be seeing a lot of this in the upcoming blog posts! I love the soft pretty colors, and especially the way it looks like it has been water colored! Beautiful!! As for the week, it consisted of an awesome day shopping with my girls. A yummy dinner NOT made by me. But a delicious peach cobbler that I did actually make with my daughter Paulina....so good! Didn't even last 24 hours in our house, haha!  A lovely loaner SUV I got to use while my 12 year old Subaru was getting fixed. It was a beauty! And it was ORANGE! Seriously almost fainted when I saw it....sigh! Had so give it back the next day : ( But any who, here is the layout for last week.





 Even added a tag from some of the shopping we did.




Have a wonderful week and thank you for checking out my blog!!! I am linked up with Jessica at The Mom Creative Blog
