Project Life 2014--How it Went

I've been very quiet about it the blog, but I have been keeping up with Project Life on a weekly basis for the past 3 years. I have a bit of a love/hate relationship with "PL" as its known in the scrapbooking world--on the downside, it's time consuming, causes stress from being "behind," and leaves me very little time for scrapbooking layouts. On the other hand though, it's a great way to do some "creativity light" when life is hectic, and at the end of the year you have this fabulous, detailed vision of the day to day life you led.

Here's a view of my album from this past year:


The title page:


And a little viewer--she LOVES flipping through these albums.


I try not to make it too busy, but I love adding in little bits and pieces!



Since I usually use just one side of a page protector per week with occasional double spreads, I sometimes end up with "placeholder" layouts--so I try to make them fun, like this!



Lots of bits and pieces:)


I will probably keep my format the same for 2015 (although I have been thinking a lot about going to a monthly schedule).

Have YOU been doing Project Life this year? If so, would you do it again?
