Beauty of Autumn

I have just released a new collection and it is simply perfect for this time of the year.  The Beauty of Autumn collection features the soft colors of Fall ~ ideal for this lovely season (but you can certainly use it year round)

This layout was created by one of Scrap Take Out's fabulous CT members Deanna and features Rainy Dayz Designs template as well as the Beauty of Autumn Collection.

Enjoying the Beauty of Autumn here in Colorado...but thinking about my Toes in the Sand...by the Shore.

Have I mentioned....

...how much I love my Project 366.   When Becky Higgins introduced Project 365 (now known as Project Life) a few years ago - I never would have thought it would have such a positive impact.  My family simply loves to look through the albums I have created over the last four years.  They are able to see more than scrapbooks about events and activities - they are able to smile about the little things in our daily life - those things that make us who we are.  I still love creating layouts for our family albums and I am still able to fully document those special events in traditional 12x12 pages.  But for those little moments in life that are so often forgotten and those glimpses of reality - my "picture of the day" is priceless.

Here are Weeks 39 and 40 - and they are already in my "to be printed" folder (I love adding files to that folder)

Remember that this can be whatever YOU want it to be!

• A picture a day or a picture a week.  
• Digital or Traditional Paper or Blog
• A bound album or individual pages
• Journal or not
• Calendar Year or Start Today!
• Countdown to a special event (wedding or milestone birthday)

I have already decided that for me 2013 will be completely using pictures from my phone.  I am still determining the "how" and looking at different apps that will keep it simple and keep it fun!  What about you?  What do you love about Project 366 (Project Life)?  What are your plans for 2013?

Looking forward to 2013 and still loving life in 2012...by the Shore.

Climb On

Today I am offering up a little bit of inspiration which features the new Photoshop Friday template from JessicaSprague as well as my Fresh Floral Fun Collection.

Fresh Floral Fun - available at NDISB - Scrap TakeOut -  MyMemories

This layout is of my daughter as she experienced her first attempt at rock wall climbing.  She tried so hard and was not willing to give up.  Did she make it to the top - no.  But did she make it further than she would have - had she not tried at all?  Absolutely.  What warmed my heart the most was the sounds of her peers cheering her on.  What a great experience for all of the kids.

So, what will you do today?  What are you going to try that is new? And who will you cheer on?

If my daughter can give it a try - so can you...by the Shore!
