Well.... my DD, who is now a Sophmore in hign school started school on Monday!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Which mean I'm busy with all my projects. I'm doing a new Frozen birthday book for a client this week and I'm doing a new "back to school book" for a client with her photos from last year. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm always on the look out for great back to school digital products that I use all year long! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Having a variety of digital product makes it really fun to mix and match, here's what I found this week.</div>

For most of my custom back to school photo books I like to include papers and elements that go with the style of the images. My DD's style is very California and I guess what you might call Boho loo. But she's also I science geek.... so for her I've found a few of great options!</div>

The client wants to have the character mix and mingle with her children in the book, so I've made a sample page with stock photos for her approval and I'm all ready to go! It'll take me about a week of so to finish the book and then she's going to have an amazing custom photo book. And of course I had to share it with you all. The Character were purchased through Etsy and she sent them to me to create with. These pages are perfect for skating picures, "Frozen" birthday parties, "Frozen" Halloween costumes and so much more.<br />

I do photo books for people who either need help or want me to do it for them. She already had the book started and I just spent a few hours polishing it up and editing some photos that needed a little TLC.<br />

Katie asked me to work on this image to try and fix the branch hanging down in the back and fix the very hot /cold effect on the in this photo. It's a really big challenge to make super bright sun and cold shade become the same brightness and intensity and she loved the finish effect. It was a bright sunny day at the beach!</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This year for my DD's Freshman Year Book I used this template by Valorie Wibben</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It is a great jumping off point because I like the different shapes.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-LBAioPb8BQA/U8FqDpj27yI/AAAAAAAATnk/uyJv3R3bLT4/s1600/VW_TopographyNo24.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-LBAioPb8BQA/U8FqDpj27yI/AAAAAAAATnk/uyJv3R3bLT4/s1600/VW_TopographyNo24.jpg" height="320" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
For this page I started off with the template in the lower right. When I start I pace the larger photos first since they are the most important and then I work around that. This month was really picture heavy since there was a lot going on. I pulled some digital elements from Glitz Designs that I had in my digi stock and it added just a little bit of fun. I make my own little elements to fill in the open spaces and that it.<br />
<br />
When filling in open space there are ton of options I use.<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
Here I use<span style="text-align: center;"> a clipping mask and I can make the digital card or paper as small or large to fit the space, like in the June banner. I enlarged a digi card and added a digital alpha over the top and finished it off with a funky arrow.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I created the Stanford banner by removing the background from the logo and added it over another paper from the Glitz collection called "Uncharted Waters" it available at Jessica Sprague.<br />

This time I'm printing at Adoramapix.com since the entire book in done in Photoshop. The printing is on photo paper and the pages are lay flat which means I don't have any lost areas in the creases of a book.<br />

Since my DD is in High School I've decides to switch my calender to the ACADEMIC calendar. It just made sense to me. When my DD was little our life centered around things like Easter, Christmas and lots of little birthday parties....oh how things have changed now things are centered around back to school, homecoming, student body elections etc. I find that after 15 Christmas and Easter layouts, those other pages are a welcome change....of course we still celebrate standard holidays, but it's different. The last few years we've travel during the holidays. Our life revolves around the academic calender more than ever. And it fun for a change!<br />

So... I know many of you come to visit for the Silhouette info which it great! I'm so glad you have all been enjoying those tutorials and I'm happy to answer specific question but please leave me your email address so I can reply. I can't post all the answers so an email address would really help.<br />
<br />
So I wanted to share what new adventures I've been up to and some of my recent projects. One thing that's new is I've been doing photobooks for people mainly though an online photobook company. I've done everything from Baby books to Wedding albums. I've also been converting peoples paper scrapbooks to digital, that is a big job! I had one customer with 90 photo albums that we scanned and placed in photobooks and I did a huge amount a photo editing since many of the photos were from the 80's and the image quality was not very good. Then we went and did a few new theme albums pulling some of here favorite images and we add scanned memorabilia as well. <br />
<br />
I've been doing books for myself too. Right now I'm finishing up my DD's freshman year of high school scrapbook and here are an example of some of the pages. I've combined both Project life style pages and more artistic layer pages similar to what I would have done with paper.<br />

<br />
I have been taking a long break from scrapbooking to take care of some major life changes! I've been dealing with everything from my husband taking a job across the country, to renting out my house, to the death of my 99 year old grandmother Essie. My DD and I are staying in Los Angeles for the new school year while my DH moved to Washington D.C. to start an exciting new job.<br />
<br />
So while I have been busy living life I have fallen horribly behind with project life....so what do I do with a Five month gap? Unfortunately there are many long stretches without picture or much to say. So I have decided to be very flexible and do one page at a time filing in the gaps in any way that fits my recollection of events. The first thing I wanted to tackle was my daughter's summer camp experience this summer.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-NeuZ4pF4iE8/UhpQBLrQYNI/AAAAAAAACbY/Xlf5o0Gpp8A/s1600/Cty+pages+2013+A.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-NeuZ4pF4iE8/UhpQBLrQYNI/AAAAAAAACbY/Xlf5o0Gpp8A/s640/Cty+pages+2013+A.jpg" height="640" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />

<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-49uz0uQvSXk/UhpQfr6QFcI/AAAAAAAACbg/0kLfRnkQn8U/s1600/Cty+pages+2013+B.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-49uz0uQvSXk/UhpQfr6QFcI/AAAAAAAACbg/0kLfRnkQn8U/s640/Cty+pages+2013+B.jpg" height="640" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
Luckily I have trained my DD to take lots of pictures with her cellphone. it almost makes the bill worthwhile!<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here are my suggestions for jumping back in:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1. Start with whatever is in the front of your mind.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
2. Be flexible, fill in with online photos of places you went or old photos.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
3. There will be gaps and inaccuracies (I don't have a perfect memory), enlist others help to remember specifics.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
4. Check your calendar or check book register to peace together chronology.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Relax and enjoy the process no one is judging you!!!</div>

Every March around the first my daughter gets sick, I don't know why, but here we go again. My DD was home for 4 days with a fever so there wasn't much going on. So what do you document when your home sick with your child?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So here are some suggestions. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1. Home remedies, do you have a special tea you brew or some other special foods. For my daughter when she's sick the only thing she wants to eat are grilled cheese sandwiches and my special smoothies, especially if she has a sore throat. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
2. Trips to the doctor. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
3. Things that bring comfort. Even my 13 year old reaches for one of her old stuffed animals when she isn't feeling fell.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
4. Entertainment. My daughter loves to watch movies and play crazy eights when she starts to feel a bit better.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
5. Memories of a previous illness. I remember when my DD got Croup and we had to call an ambulance because it got so bad. No fun but if you haven't documented a story from the past you can tell the story now.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
6. Tell a story about when you were little and what your Mom did or didn't do for you. It's a great opportunity to pass down a story or tell how a ritual got started.<br />
7. Take photos of the stacks of Kleenex tissues or bottle of cold medicines. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
8. Remember to take a picture when the cold or flu passes, capture the healthy glow coming back!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So here is week 9 the sick week.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Now that I'm finishing my second month of Project Life I feel like I'm making it my own. In the beginning couple of weeks I had no idea what I wanted to say or how I wanted things to look, but now this is starting to feel really good. And I look forward to doing the week.</div>

This page was created as a filler page for my Project Life book I'm doing for my DD, a filler page can fill in the gaps between one and two pager weeks. I love this neutral colors on this which is very contrary to usual bright colors, but I did manage to add a few little pops of color. I think this layout style is great for a week when you don't have as much going on too. It's only 6 cards instead of 9 or more, and instead of add the little elements I could have used the space to journal. I've had this page in my head all week and then I saw a layout in the DD gallery that pushed me to get it done. I like the fabric theme to this page and it inspired me to use a linen matte with pearl push pins and stitching.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: start;">This week I started with designing the journal cards first. So then I start to build them I designed the stacked circles, the next step is choosing a background paper, I really like something textured. After I added the accents and journaling spots. The last thing I add is the text and the journaling.</span></div>

Am I too Boring for Project life?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The simple answer is heck no. Part of doing Project Life for me is recording all of the everyday things in my teenager daughter's life, and for my teenager that means what she is listening to, shopping for and planning. So this week is a look at just that. I don't feel any pressure if there's a week were I either don't spend a lot of time with her because she's busy at school or spending her free time with her friends. I still get involved and I listen carefully whenever she's ready to share. Often I will go back after the layout is done and add more journaling that I don't post because that stuff is boring to you all but it's an important step for me to add my thoughts.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-0PaN8xk8EgY/URk2q_lPqbI/AAAAAAAACV8/d9C3RX8LgNY/s1600/PL+Week+5.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-0PaN8xk8EgY/URk2q_lPqbI/AAAAAAAACV8/d9C3RX8LgNY/s640/PL+Week+5.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Things to make notes of</b><br />
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Music around the house.....</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Any sentence that starts with mom I need......</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Planning for summer, spring break or a family outing...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
How she spends free time....</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
After school activities....<br />
Emails form school....<br />
Projects at school...<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's all part of the story, so I'm not afraid that it not important because it's our story. And if you like to share you're pages, don't worry about your privacy you can add the journaling afterwards or shut off the layer in Photoshop. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Just don't skip it!</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm still using my Day One app, it really helps because everyday blends into the next.</div>

Have a great Monday and don't forget to leave me a comment. How do you document your week?</div>

There were so many fire to put out, I exhausted myself and afterwards I slept for about thirteen hours. Oh, the joys for being a Wife and Mother. But back to the important thinks like scrapping! So, I have a couple of things to share with you. first of all a quickie update, I received a couple of comments about not finding things that I mentioned or listed in a post. The first one being <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/pixlr-o-matic/id450263811?mt=8" target="_blank">Pixlr-o-matic</a> which I mistakenly called Pixelomatic or something like that, it's available for both the iphone and android and you can find it in the respective stores. In addition, I generally posted everything on my Pinterest board and I've added a button to my blog to make it easy to find. The other missing information was regarding some of the PL (project life) digital products I use and again, if I forget to but a link on my blog you can generally find it on my Pinterest board. Every week (sometimes daily) I shop for new products and post them to my board so I can find it later when I need it.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://pinterest.com/lisabarrie100/digital-project-life/" target="_blank"><img border="0" height="200" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-WsVOSqOSNOg/URaBRI-p-ZI/AAAAAAAACVM/WtdZ22pUHTw/s200/pinterest-logo.png" width="200" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Speaking of PL shopping on my my favorite places to shop (besides Loriwhitlock.com) is Studio DD it's part of Designer Digitals and I generally feel compelled to buy anything designed my her. And although digital product is very reasonably priced sometimes I exceed my monthly budget and I can't buy anymore. So I wanted to try my hand at designing/scraplifting some of the designs Kayleigh has done for Studio DD and I'm really happy with the results I used the new Templates from Lori Whitlock and her new basics line and here is the results. This looks so simple why oh why did it take like 8 hours to do!!!</div>

This Month is flying by and I'm so much more aware of how we spend our time. I love that we make an effort to spend time with friends and my DD and I love for go for coffee. The is my DD's last year of middle school and I'm starting to get so excited for her. This week we got her packet with class electives and the curriculum guide. Middle school has come and gone in the blink of an eye, so I can only imagine what the next four years are going to be like. I'm so glad I'm doing PL to capture every detail!<br />

I don't think I've ever redone a scrapbook page after it was finished. But now that I've done a few pages and I have more of a process, I went back and redid my first page of this Christmas I really didn't like that page and I would of never included it, that's the reason for the redo. I'm going to include it at the end as a look back page. I'm much happier with this version you can see the old one <a href="http://lisabarrie.blogspot.com/2013/01/happy-new-year-everyone-last-12-months.html" target="_blank">here</a>. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
The main difference in my process is placing all the journaling cards first. I like to spread them out around the pages and use them to separate the photos so I have a place to talk about each picture, if I need to. Next I filled in the photos, that's works much better for me. That way I have a definite color scheme working, since this is my teenage daughters book I'm using lots of brights.<br />
Do you ever redo any pages? How do you start your layouts, do you follow any particular process? I'd love to hear what you do. Thanks for stopping by!<br />

I started by adding all the journaling cards first and then the pictures and last the text and embellishments. I used a lot of iPad photo editing apps because the standard pictures look kind of lost in the midst of all these bright color. My favorite is Pixlr-o-matic there are lots of free extras and the end results are fun. I've added a ton of different fonts on this page too, I like the way it adds energy and randomness to the end results. Well I can't believe I'm all up to date so I wont have another PL post till next week sometime.<br />

I'm still working on letting go of my pages looking a certain way and just telling the story. As a long time scrapper the aim for me was to create something that looked like it could be hung on a wall this time around I'm concentrating on somethings that looks like a page in a notebook...yeah that's a big transition. </div>

So I'm happy to have a couple of minutes to share something fun with you all!<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/--h4ds449P9s/UPlqUte7GRI/AAAAAAAACI0/mRiCaPILuTo/s1600/LW+Heart+Confetti+Cardweb.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/--h4ds449P9s/UPlqUte7GRI/AAAAAAAACI0/mRiCaPILuTo/s640/LW+Heart+Confetti+Cardweb.jpg" width="474" /></a></div>
<br />
I love confetti and any clear products, acetate, Lucite so when I receive the new product for the week I thought it would be fun to share how to create a little plastic pocket filled with heart shaped confetti using Lori's new brushes.<br />
<br />
1. load Lori's brushes in Photoshop and choose the brush you want to use. Set the foreground color to anything you's like I used Black because I used it as a mask.<br />
<br />
2. Set the brush setting to alter the way you use the brushes. You will be able to see in the window how the brushes are effected and use the spacing slider so you can spread them out.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-wk2DhMsYz-0/UPlsRsSdEQI/AAAAAAAACJY/00nLxXmGNAQ/s1600/brush+settings.PNG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="476" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-wk2DhMsYz-0/UPlsRsSdEQI/AAAAAAAACJY/00nLxXmGNAQ/s640/brush+settings.PNG" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
3. After creating the amount of confetti you want in your pocket you can add a drop shadow or bevel and emboss the shapes to add depth and texture.<br />
<br />
4. Add paper in back of the card, I used Lori's Kiss Me collection.<br />
5. The last step is to add a plastic page protector and some stitching.<br />

Well here is week one of the new year, I included the last of December since I wanted to reflect a little on closing out the old year and have a moment to talk about my hopes for this year. I've continued to keep track of the daily details using the popular <i>Day One</i> app. I'm finding it extremely helpful so far especially remembering the conservation I have with my 13 year old daughter. I want to remember the things we talk about and the things she says at this amazing time in her life. I think thirteen is similar to when she was a toddler because the changes come so rapidly and are so important. I use a ton of different products for this layout and I mix and match all the time, i concentrated on the color and style of the page rather than on the name of the designer. I love college and I find this really works for my style. </div>

I wanted to share with you the <b>Downtown Christmas</b> kit I used for this layout I think is really great. You'd think shopping was a universal and popular topic in scrapbooking but surprisingly...no!<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Lyxfp4kgcfA/UPMG6CdU79I/AAAAAAAACHI/oNGYFLcwWRo/s1600/downtown+christmas+kit.PNG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="544" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Lyxfp4kgcfA/UPMG6CdU79I/AAAAAAAACHI/oNGYFLcwWRo/s640/downtown+christmas+kit.PNG" width="640" /></a></div>
I search just about every online source I have and this was about it, but it was perfect. I especially love the receipts and shopping bags which I think I'll use again and again.<br />
Thank you for visiting and I'd love to hear from you about your project life experiences and what your working on.<br />
Hugs, Lisa</div>

Lori Whitlock has some new items in here store and I created this Project life page using some of the journal cards and fun papers. In addition, I've added some elements from some of the other collections she's designed and they all go so well with each other which is why I always like to mix and match.</div>
