I'm pretty excited to finally have started this year's Project Life. I actually printed these photos like 1/11 with big plans to make my cover page a few weeks ago. It never happened. But I did do a lot of prep-work for 2014 Project Life like pre-printing cards. I also splatter painted these for fun. I created a sequin pocket filled with white sparkle sequins sealed closed with washi tape. This is also a trimmed sleeve sealed with washi as well. I used some cards from the Sunshine kit. Added a few Thickers from like 2009, and ribbon and boom it's done, cover page for 2014. Photos are from our big 12 inch snowstorm day.
Kathleen and I also got a whole bunch of loot at the nearby closing Archiver's which we intend to share to make our 2014 Project Life pages together. Should be fun!

A few things about my Project Life 2014 –
- I’m continuing to use the kits and sleeves I already have although I’m not planning on having any be 12x12. It’s just too big and bulky. My cover page is BH PL A sleeve and I just sliced off the last 3 inches. I closed up the open pockets with washi tape and it’s now 12x9. I am thinking this will be my standard go to size however I do know I want to continue to use the baseball card sleeves with the 9 pockets/page these are 8.5x11 and will likely also have some 12x6 pages mixed in there.
- I have note found an album yet but have put this into just a plain old work binder for safe keeping for now.
- I’m NOT documenting each week individually. Some weeks are just plain dull, while I might use a print from each week and possibly some notes/story on each week I’m not interested in the 52 weeks it just gets to be too hard to keep up. Instead I’ll probably have several pages for each month.
- I went ahead and pre-printed monthly Erika Eagle's calendars for each month, as well as Elise’s quote cards to include throughout the book. Sometimes I’ll alter these, like I did here and sometimes I’ll leave them as is. I think they will help unite the whole book.
- I hope to find other free printables that work for me to add into the mix. I also hope to keep creating themselves like the Burford, let’s do this and 2014 cards seen here on the cover page. I think they help personalize this a little more.
- I may decide that I want to do a PL baby book too. Although I don’t mind if PL2014 becomes overwhelmingly baby because our family is changing this year so it’s likely to happen.

I like your changes to project life .. I was wondering what you were going to do this year.
Just in case you forgot...I love you! :) I need to get back to some type of scrapping and use up all this fun stuff I have a room full of! :)
