I have taken on a project for the new year. Each year I try to do something special to document my year. My favorite projects to date have been the Year in the Life album workshops that I have offered monthly at my house. Since I am not sure that I will be here for the full year, I am reluctant to offer that project again this year.
So, in with the new. I decided to take on Becky Higgin's Project Life. I have followed many scrapbookers that have taken on this project and made it their own and I have enjoyed watching their process. So, this year is my turn. Or, should I say, our turn. Since I did not make this decision until late on the 29th, I had Mark order the kit with his prime account which meant delivery in 2 days! Sweet!
On the 31st, my package arrived. Excited,thrilled and of course, over-whelmed. I always take on more projects than one person should, but this felt right.
Upon opening the box I found, well, another box! I think the packaging of the kit was very well thought out and I made a mental note of that to myself.
The anticipation was almost too much.
It just kept getting better!
Mark and I have begun charting our course for the year and I am looking forward to documenting all the little moments that will make this year special, together. That's right, Mark will be scrapbooking this with me! Gotta lova a new project that inspires you to create!
Speaking of new projects, I spent some time at the quilt shop today purchasing fabrics that will help me to finish up a few of the quilting projects I have hanging around my house. Once those are done, I have a really special quilt project that I cannot wait to undertake.
Today is only the second day of the new year and I can tell already, it is going to be a great year!
