52 photos in 52 weeks 2011

when i was thinking about my new projects for the new year, i also thought of doing something in the area of 365. you know taking a photo a day for the whole year. and as proud i am about finishing a month of daily photos  i know myself well enough to know that there is no way i could do that for an entire year! kudos to everyone doing it though! so, my solution was a 52 week project instead. i contacted my fellow write.click.scrapbook team member and sweet girl Monika Wright to ask her to join me in this challenge! she accepted :)


our challenge is to take our cameras with us as we go on with our days, she in tennessee and me in sweden, and interpret every weeks theme that we have chosen. we hope this will help us come to know eachother and ourselves plus having a fun time playing with our cameras! essentially taking one photo every week of the year having a theme to help us!

won´t you join us?! here are a few things we have done to make it easier for you to join in on the fun!  

♥ we've created a blog button, if you'd like to participate with us


♥ we've established a Flickr group for us all to post our photos to...after all it is a journey of discovery and we'll all get to know each other better by how we interpret each week's theme

Monika and I will both post on our individual blogs, as well as in the Flickr group, about 52Photos every Thursday of the year...sharing our photos and also the next week's theme
 
wanna know the first challenge?
well, to celebrate the new year, we thought we would each take a photo at 20:11 (or 8:11 pm for you americans) on January 1st.
 
what were you doing then?
did you watch you kids sleep?
did you kick up your feet infront of a good movie?
 
i can´t wait to see!

a new year (soon) calls for new projects

i love the days before the new year. i go through my posts from the past year. i go through photos and layouts from the past year and it feels so good to make a new folder that says 2011 and put all the 2010 photos in their folder. i also ponder on new projects. everyone know that the new year is perfect for new projects and changes :)

i have a few projects that are going to start on january 1st 2011:

1. i signed up for ali edwards bigpictureclasses class: one little word. as you may know i do choose a word each year, just like ali has done now for a couple of years. and i love that necklace she shared in this post! so i felt i needed to have one too, although i made mine myself :)


i am so looking forward to this class!

2. when i went through our photos for this past year and can you even believe that we had one, yes ONE photo of us all three as a family! i take thousands of photos and i took only ONE of all of us all year?! how is that even possible?! so, i am totally going to do family photos ala tara whitney every month of 2011. cause´ we need that! period!

3. i am also continuing rebecca coopers photo challenge called "the simple things".

4. virtual coffee is also a project i love and will do as often as i can.

and i also have one more cool project that i am doing all 52 weeks of 2011...but i´ll be back about that on january 1st...please join me then!

last pages of the year


i had to record the expression on my daughters face when she opened the gift i made her :)


i loved the way our tree looked the nights before christmas. it made me think that ok, we are ready!


my things to be happy about in december inspired by this post!


i wrote my daughter a letter the day before christmas, cause´ i had been thinking about what she will carry in her heart from her childhood christmas´. i haven´t  shown her the letter yet, but i am so curious of what she will answer! i used the original letter and the letters show better in real life.

and that my friends are the last layouts (i think) for this amazing year!
