Project Life | February 2013

by Tammy on March 5, 2013

Today I wanted to share my February Project Life layout. I am doing Project Life on a monthly basis now and find that once a month is the perfect frequency for me.

February is my least favorite month. It’s easier to handle now that I’m back in Florida and not enduring cold winters but I’m always happy to see the calendar page turn to March. No extra page protectors this month. It was a stretch to find enough just to fill these slots. I know, that’s bad. But realistic. I still think it’s important to document the boring weeks and months right along with the fun ones.

I used another 6×6 paper pad this month, this time Echo Park’s This & That Graceful collection. I also added two cuts I created with the Silhouette Studio software and cut with my Silhouette. The photos are very normal, every day photos. Drinks with a friend, a few reminders of what it’s like to live in Florida, working on my taxes. I included some ephemera – an envelope from a card, a few valentines, a post card from the library.

Yep, really boring! But that’s totally OK because sometimes life is routine and not very exciting. I have a feeling that March will have a little more going on! At least I hope it does…

Thanks for stopping by today!

I agree, we need to document the ordinary days & weeks & months as well as the extraordinary. Who knows, next February you may be so busy you’ll wish for a boring month again.

Around this time I also look forward to spring and the calendar turning to March! These layouts are great. I notice you watch “Homeland”…I’ve been told that is a great show and I am going to check it out:)

Homeland, yes. I just started watching it, getting the discs from Netflix. It is good – the actors are all fabulous – but it’s very dark. Not much happiness going on in the lives of the people on that show.

I actually picked you up a copy of a paper tax return to add to your pages. They still have them out at the post office here in my small little town :)

Your pages turned out really good. I still need to work more on mine. I think if I could leave it out it would help. Thanks for sharing!!
