Happy Monday everyone!
I'm a little late getting my post up today. This is the first I've been in my office all day...eek!
Lots of memorabilia again this week. Love those touches of our everyday life added to our Project Life album.
Week 4 layout:
I included a Lego Mini Figures check list from the mystery packs my kids are addicted to right now. I think it will be fun to look back on one day. I also included the packing list from a recent order. Again, something that I think will be fun to look back on one day. ;) I love clothing tags. I use them in my regular scrapbooking, too, just not that often. Love being able to include them here in this format. Plus, now I can look back and remember which jeans I loved if I go to order another pair!
I really like the layers of tags and things on the second journaling tag from the left. Lots of color and even though there isn't a lot of journaling, the embellishments help tell the story. And that photo of the brushetta in the process of being put together is one of my newest favorite pictures. It just turned out great. Love that.
I didn't really have a photo for this day but I had gone through several days of @ZodiacFact on Twitter and emailed some of my favorites pertaining to either mine or my husband's signs to my email account so I cut and pasted them in a word document and printed them out on white cardstock. To keep them from being too plain I stamped some of Hero Arts fabulous new clock designs over the 4x6 pieces to give them custom backgrounds and make them coordinate with the rest of the weekly spread.
I am not huge into Zodiak facts and such but I do kind of get a kick out of them when they "hit the nail on the head" so to speak. Scary how close some of these are to me personality... and my husband's. ;)

Great pages, Nichol. I collect the clothing tags also for my little girls album and for this years album. Some of those tags are so darn cute. recently purchased a little dress for her, from a dutch brand and on the tags were a pair of tiny wooden shoes. So cute.

Nancy, we find ours at either Target, WM, or Toys R Us for $2.99 per package. They have 1 minifig inside but it's a surprise as to what you get. (There are websites that tell you how to figure it out so you don't get the same one 2x.) My kids love them!

They are little packages that contain one lego mini figure and each package is a mystery. I think they originally sell for $2.97 but my Wal-Mart has clearanced them to $.94 so my kids kind of went crazy. ;) They are really really fun.

I'm surprised to see I'm not the only one who collects clothing tags! :) They're just too cute to throw away sometimes. Haha.

Hey Nicole love, love, love your work. I also was wondering if you knew about the major sale at Silhouette America.com 40% off all accessories and 25% of subscriptions if you use this code at checkout. IHEARTIC
I know how quick you go through mats and this makes them $9 a piece

fell off the fence last week and ordered. Just can't get the images of your pages out of my mind so I went for it. My husband is not too happy with you :-) Just kidding - he loves to look at my books...

That project life album is genius. I want to do something similar with the few boxes of random tickets stubs and junk that I always keep.
