365 Project June

Well I've now done 365 through June. So I only need to do July and August to be all caught up. I found lots of great 365 kit options over at Divine Digital's included some kits specifically designed for certain months. The most versitile is DeDe Smith's Digital 365 Kit HERE and the 365 Digital Kit Add On HERE. See the bottom of the this entry for a the previews for these great kits. As you can see from these 4 layouts there is a lot of variety to the looks you can get.

June 7-13 - De De Smith Digital 365, Template Lindsey Jane, Font Lucida Console

365 Project May

With the May layouts I started looking for different options of digikits. I started May by using a new kit a found at DigiScrap Station. It is by Heavenly Scraps and is called It's A Date. You can purchase it here. Look for a preview at the bottom of this post.

May 3-9 Heavenly Scraps It's a Date, Template Andrea Gold, Font School Hand Bold by Creative Chaos.

May 10-16 - Used Heavenly Scraps It's A Date, Template by Racketty Scrappety, and the font Baskerville Old Face.


For the next one I used a kit that was not really designed as a 365 kit but it just worked perfect for the photos I had to work with. I used Momma Trish 's My Little Black Cloud available HERE at My Scrap Station.

May 17- 23 - Momma Trish's Little Black Cloud, Template by Andrea Gold, and the font Footlight MT Light.











I found another great 365 Kit which I will post more about in the June layout post so check it out there.

May 24-30 - DeDe Smith Digital 365, Andrea Gold template, and the fonts Rockwell Extra Bold and Rockwell Condensed.

365 Project April

April 5-11 - DigiTreat Shout, Template by Liz Design, and the font Times New Roman.

April 12-18 DigiTreat Giggle, Template Andrea Gold, Font Rage Italic and Script Bold MT

April 19-25 DigiTreat Smirk - Template Andrea Gold, Font Sylfaen

365 Project March

To make sure I have the full choice of paper and elements each month from DigiTreats I've decided to do a months worth of layouts at one time. I had already completed the beginning of March before making that decision so I present the last 3 layouts of March.

March 15-21 features DigiTreat Shout, DigiTreat Template 12 and the font Sylfaen.


March 22-28 features DigiTreats Giggle, Liz Design Template, and the font Tempus Sans ITC.

March 29-April 4 features DigiTreats Smirk, Liz Template, and the font Book Antiqua.

365 Project

Here are two more layouts in the ongoing 365 project.

The first layout is from February 22-28. I used DigiTreat shout for this layout with an Andrea Gold template. The font is Century Storybook.

The second layout is from March 1-7. It features DidiTreat Giggle. The template is from Lauri Scraps. The font is Virinda.

365 February Layouts

Somehow I got so busy that I forgot to post my 365 Challenge layouts this month. So here are the first 3 weeks of layouts. Stay tuned for the final week.

February 1-7 features DigiTreat Shout, a template from Kissed Studios, and the font Pristina.

February 8-14 features DigiTreat Giggle, a template from Andrea Gold, and the font Magneto. I missed one day this week but had 2 funny photos from the same day so I used that to make a total of 7 photos.

February 15-21 features DigiTreat Smirk, DigiTreat template, and the font Bauhaus 93. If you noticed a missed a few days this week. I really didn't have much from the other days either so I just covered those area with paper and added titling and an element.

This way you get a chance to see all three DigiTreat color schemes in action.

365 January 25-31, 2009

Another week. Another layout. I'm so excited that I have kept up with this project. I love the fact that being intentional about getting a photo everyday has helped me to capture some of those more ordinary moments.

This week features the DigiTreats Smirk kit with her 365 add-ons. I used an Andrea Gold template and the font is Trebuchet MS.

Sunday and Monday feature Hannah with her bridge still in her mouth and then out of her mouth. Tuesday features Caleb. He had gotten behind on his school and was working hard to catch up so he didn't miss his day to go out with mom for lunch.
Wednesday features a neat piece of equipment we saw working near where we had lunch because he did finish up his school and earned his lunch. I only had my cell phone camera but it came out okay.
Thursday is a shot that I accidentally took when I picked up my camera. I had forgotten to take anything else so I used it. It is my notebook that I keep by my computer. I make notes on posty notes while working on layouts and then transfer the information into the notebooks so I can keep track of what I use to give proper credit for my layouts. I also put current challenges on a note and then pull them off when I complete the challenge or it passes the deadline to turn it in. Its an obsession but I embrace it so there.
Friday is the featured photo in the circle. Its a picture of my new camera. Yes new camera. My oldest said he was thinking of getting a new camera so I asked if I could have his old one which was better than the old, old one I was using after mine broke. Sweet, sweet boy that he is instead of that he sent me a brand new one. It's last years model but its still better than the one that broke. I'm so excited. The pictures its takes are much sharper and larger than the any of my previous cameras. It also take pictures faster so maybe I'll be able to catch Hayden now and then.
Saturday first picture with the new camera. I was testing to see how fast it took pictures and caught Hannah having a great time hopscotching out front. She always seems to radiate such joy.

Next week will be hard to choose for Sunday. I might have one page for Sunday and then the other six days on a second page. I took a picture at our church that I've been wanting to take for a while, then we headed out to the park and I got some great shots.

Project 365 - Layouts

Well I've actually done. I've taken a picture every day and actually gotten the layouts done at the end of each week. I'm using a variety of templates. There are lots of great ones out there both free and purchase. But I plan to use the DigiTreats kits throughout this year's project. Pam has even created some special 365 add-ons for sale in her store. I am using all three but only one each week. I'll try to rotate a bit but will use the one that best matches the pictures or who's extras work the best for the layout of the week. I was originally going to do a 2-page layout but I decided that would make a really large book at the end of the year so unless the pictures are of something really, really special I'll stick to 1 page per week. I'm also thinking about taking one of the monthly templates and putting a opening page for each month featuring all the photos on one page. I've really been having fun with this project. I also hope to post the layout each week.

So here they are the first four 365 layouts for 2009.
