At the fair | a layout

 
we treated my daughter and a friend to an entire day at the amusementpark. 10 HOURS my friends! i know, i was there the entire time ;)
they had a blast!
 
 
as i look through my recent layouts i see a trend to use more black/white and grey. i have always loved color, but this grey trend is so nice to look at. do you agree?

Project Life | week 37


week 37 


the spread has an extra insert with 4 extra photos.


here is the spread when the extra pockets are turned.


the stories: we get fresh eggs from a local farmer every week and it makes me so happy that we eat clean food.
we did some schoolwork this week and it made me feel confident in doing this (almost) by myself.
my grandfather unexpectedly passed away and i wanted to include that in here, just as my grandmothers passing earlier this year. i have journaled in a pocket behind the photo.
i didn´t really know what to have right next to the photo of my grandfather, so i added some leaves that i have picked this week.


the second page. the stories:
me and my husband spend some time together again after being apart for 2 weeks and 2 weekends. fantastic!
my cute nephew turned 7!
we popped into the craftstore. and dixon rode the bus and tram for the first time.
and then i wrote about the weekend.


here is the first pocket.
the stories: my daughter was the most beautiful bridesmaid when her biological father re-married. 
our iPhones arrived!


the other side of the extra pocket.
stories: i am happy to have spend some time at my grandmothers grave this weekend. it gave me great comfort.
i also added in my Take Twelve photos.

and that is a wrap. 





Take Twelve | September page



here is the page i did with my Take Twelve photos!



since it was a tough week for me, i decided to print out the mosaic i did with the photos and used that. i usually make some kind of list for the photos, but i just jotted down why i looked for happy things that day this time. 



did you see my post on what i love about this project?

My summer | a layout with a photomosaic


now that summer is over i made this mosaic with various photos i took over the last 2 months. 


i simply added words with my typewriter that represents the things we did etc. for example: rain, dogplay, jam.

i have said it before and i´ll say it again: i do love photo mosaics!
