Project Life

This week's Project Life covers the week of September 24-30th.

I have to say, documenting the fall season has been my favorite so far.  It's a lot of fun to incorporate fall activities, colors, and even the everyday in my layouts.

However, I tried to keep a balance of the "everyday" yet keep with a fall-ish theme.  I stopped by a farmers market this week and snapped photos of their beautiful and unique pumpkin display.  It was the perfect "filler" for photos this week.  We also had a week full of everyday chores, field trips, football, and parties.

One of my favorite iPhone apps is PostalPix.  I usually print my Instagram photos from this app.  You can order on your phone and the prints are mailed to you.  Just recently they have included a 2x2 size to their prints (4x4 was the smallest print prior to this).

Not only is it super exciting to have this smaller size, but the prints come in a 6x6 collage sheet.  You can keep the collage in-tact or you can trim the photos.  I created a collage from a fun birthday party to include as an insert.  The 6x6 page protector is by We R Memory Keepers.  I trimmed the 6x6 spot from the full 12x12 sheet.

Since the party was an outdoor movie party, I kept the back side of the insert plain with just pattern paper.  This star paper is older paper by October Afternoon-- it went perfectly with the party theme.  Sometimes it's fun to breakaway from your color scheme and represent the moments you are documenting.

I placed an Elle's Studio Sweet Life Pennant at the bottom of the insert with the party favor we all received.

On the right side of the layout I told a few everyday stories from our "extra" activities-- football and ballet.  These activities have made our weeks very busy but it's a fun part of our lives right now.
