{Project Life: Week 2 : Peekaboo + Free Printable}

January 19, 2013

PL_week2_quoteoftheweek

Week two of my Project life is a spread that sim­ply makes me happy! I think its all the bright fun col­ors here…

The top right photo is an insta­gram that printed out really well. The words and Chevron are by Pink Paislee Dig­i­tal. On the bot­tom right card I used some free dig­i­tal glit­ter by Sahlin Stu­dio. The top right card and the bot­tom left card– are both part of todays free­bie (scroll all the way down this blog post to down­load). I just took last weeks free­bie and col­ored the words. I don’t know which I love bet­ter now– the grey ver­sion or the color version!

The mid­dle left card is a photo of my daugh­ter play­ing peek­a­boo. I actu­ally sew/washi taped a 4 by 6 pocket around the photo so its a flap now…

The mid­dle right card was inspired by this card of  I made ear­lier this week. I used the same tech­nique I used to make this card but used the Basic Grey Tiny alphas to spell out my words. The ZIng emboss­ing pow­ders I used are But­ter, Rose, Grape­fruit, Aqua and Cricket (i think?)

My blog post about Project LIfe is being fea­tured at the Busy Being Happy web­site today. Do stop by and say hi to her !

Thanks for stop­ping by my blog today!

 If you are inter­ested in dig­i­tal free­bies, like/fol­low me on face­book or twit­ter and get the lat­est updates and sneaks!  I  pin a lot more of the free­bies that I spy in this pro­jectlifeLOVE board on pin­ter­est. I am also join­ing in on the Project life Tues­day at The Mom Cre­ative, I love how Jes­sica gives us a dead­line to get our spreads done. If you are new to Project life head here to learn more. If you want to read more about my 2013 approach to Project life head here.
Supplies: I am print­ my pho­tos (and the PL cards) at home using my Canon 9000 pro series. I use this paper by Canon- which is sim­ply amaz­ing!!! It is a matte paper and has the look and feel of card­stock. This printer/paper combo is the main rea­son Project life is work­ing for me this year.  I am also using this new cor­ner rounder by Fiskars. My album and page pro­tec­tors, I got at Tar­get and are the We R mem­ory keep­ers brand. I am try­ing to main­tain a con­sis­tant jour­nal­ing font this time, and am using Hel­vetica Neue. I do all my dig­i­tal pro­cess­ing in Adobe Pho­to­shop Cs5.

    I can’t choose between the colour or grey cards, they are both great! I clicked on the down­load link and it says ‘page not found’, I will call back again to see if it is fixed, but mean­while enjoy play­ing peekaboo! =)

    Thank you for all your lovely free­bies! I’ve done some down­load­ing and pin­ning :)

  15. Your page is really cute, I love how you made the peek-a-boo flap! Your quote of the week card is really adorable also. Vis­it­ing from project life Tuesdays!

  16. I down­loaded the cards last week — can­not wait to use them :) Love the idea of doing a peek-a-boo page with washi tape — your daugh­ter is so cute!

  17. I adore the Peek-a-Boo.. what a great idea… I still haven’t tried the flip up yet… now you’ve inspired me for next week. thanks!
    Oh thank you for the free­bies, they are awe­some.
    Hugs!!

  18. I LOVE the peek-a-boo card! My youngest is just start­ing to play; I will def­i­nitely have to copy this idea!

  19. Love the speech bub­bles — I was at a loss for what to do with them, but they look so much bet­ter with bright colors.

    Thanks again for the print­a­bles, too :)

  20. Won­der­ful lay­outs! And what fun free­bies, just dis­cov­er­ing your web­site! Thank you!

  22. That peek a boo is just adorable! Must remem­ber that.
    Thanks so much for the freebie!

  23. Awe­some lay­out. I love the idea of hav­ing a “word of the week,” even though my kid­dos are all older. There are def­i­nitely some weeks that can be summed up in one word.

  24. You’re so awe­some and amaz­ing! Thanks for the freebie!
