Begining Project Life

I had been wanting to do Project Life(PL) for the longest time. Of course with work, school, family, friends, social life, and sitting in traffic, I never had the time. Getting this blog updated and making 1 card a week was a big task. I was also under the impression that it HAD to be a weekly thing and it was definitely something I could not commit to. But as I did more research, I learned that it does not have to be a weekly thing and it can be anything I want to. Now that I’ve gained back 3 extra hours in my day, I feel like I have more time to try new things.

I decided to start PL as a travel album with the pictures from our Costa Rica trip that we took last May. I originally was not going get a core kit. $30 for 500 cards sounded like a good deal but I read a lot of the reviews and many people were stating that some cards were unusable. I wish they came out with a travel theme kit. I did find a ton of FREE printables(via Pinterest of course!) but after printing some and trying to make them myself, I thought I should at least get one core kit to save myself some trouble.

Here are my supplies that I’m starting off with:
Project Life Core Kit - Seafoam Edition
Photo Pocket Pages - Design A
Photo Pocket Pages - Design D
Grid Cards 4 x 6
We R Memory Keepers Classic Leather - Kiwi (12x12 Ring) - I got mine at Target

I’ve also been purchasing different travel themed stickers and embellishments. And some are pre-orders from the Spring releases so they haven’t arrived yet. I’ve also subscribed to a monthly Project Life kit from CitrusTwistKits.

I got over 250 pictures printed at Costco and I'm excited to start my next journey and documenting my life.

Thank you so much for stopping by!
