Project Life stylee spread – and some printables

I have finished my first spread for my strange little 2.5 x 3.5 sleeve PL album.  I think the whole thing is going to take me some time to come to grips with.  At least it has done what I intended, which it to get me to actually take some photos of daily life things and get them into an album of some sort.

Most of the printables are either ones I have made and shared already or are ones I made specifically for this (like the THEN and NOW ones – which I think I will make as a set this week in the standard 3 x 4 size. I’ve documented DDs skating progress, the excessive snow, my possible change-of-heart over e-readers, as well as by fab Christmas gift from DD. and a Skype screen capture from a conversation we had with my very dear sister and her girls.  I’m happy with the moments I captured but not overly happy with the layout.  It sort of came into being as I worked on it – I think I may want to plan better for future months, both in placement and colour combos.  Some of the charm of PL is the random nature of it, I think, or at least for me, but I will either need to let go of the whole things should “match” idea or pre-plan better.  Not sure which way it will go the be honest.
