And so it begins…

😉 I have to admit I got stuck when I started working on the title page for my 2013 Project Life album. I chose the pictures but then I wasn’t sure how to proceed. I started digging in my computer and found some pretty awesome things that I had collected throughout the year and not used yet. 🙂 It was easy to put the page together at that point. In the end, I love how the title page turned out!

I wanted to feature some of my favorite things on the cover page, so I added stamping, embossing, sequins, glitter, washi tape, vellum, confetti and stitching. 🙂 I realized I forgot to add wood veneer, but I had already closed up the pocket by then. 😉

Not sure if you can tell from the pictures, but I printed everything on linen paper by Red River Paper (except the photos) – I love that texture so much!

After trying it out in my December Daily album, I am in love with pockets filled with glitter, sequins and confetti! I am so happy to have this in the front page of my album. 🙂

Supplies:
I used a Design F page protector (the choice was motivated by the left page of week 1, that I’d already started).
The “Hello 2013” card is from the January Project Life kit by Studio Calico. The calendar stamps are by Designs by Lili; the b/w quote card is a freebie by Elise Blaha; the “just begin” card is a freebie by Ali Edwards. Stamps are all by Studio Calico (from the Venice Beach add on – “you & me”, 34th Street card kit “there’s no place like home”, and Day by Day class kit “twenty thirteen and “the best is yet to come”). The star punch, chunky glitter and micro beads (all in the confetti pocket) are by Martha Stewart. Mistable camera by Studio Calico; enamel dot by My Mind’s Eye.

I haven’t completed my Week 1 page yet but I’m 3/4 of the way done. I added an insert because I have a lot of pictures this week. 🙂 I hope to get it ready to be shared soon!
