I am still pinching myself in disbelief that I was lucky enough to be chosen by Becky Higgins to represent her and her brand of Project Life! I have been happily dedicated to taking a picture each and every day since 2009, and I am excited to start my 5th year of recording our everyday memories this very same way. I am very passionate about this entire concept. I totally believe in this process. I couldn’t imagine my life without it. I look through my older albums, and I am in complete amazement at what I would have totally forgotten about. The memories that would have been lost had I not taken that shot that day, or the pictures and pictures that would still be on my computer just waiting to be printed.
What I truly love about this system is that you can make it whatever you want. You don’t have to take a picture each day like I do. You can simply do a month in review per spread. Slide in your favorite 7 shots taken that month, or maybe you have more pictures. Just make it as many spreads as you need. Slide in your pictures, write your story or even just a couple of words, and you are done. With each pocket, a memory has been preserved. Love that!
You can learn more about it here on Becky Higgins’ Website.
Here is a great video too :)
So who is with me? I have convinced my very best of friends to jump on board with me, are you?
...Now, bring on 2013!
I am so excited for you! Yippee! I've been thinking of doing some sort of project like PL, but not sure yet. I'll just follow along with you and be inspired by all your creativity!
