It's done. I feel great now the album for Week in the Life is completed. It was a big project but I am sure it will be well worth all the work that's gone into it.
Here's a quick look at all the pages.

In terms of putting it all together I tried to have a main colour for each day. I used the colour from the text on the day's photo i.e. Monday is blue, Sunday is yellow.
I used a mixture of patterned and plain papers from various different sources. This was more about showcasing the pictures and words than using new products. I did manage to sneak in some Elle's Studio tags though. I also featured at least one butterfly on each days pages and a little bling.
I've also done a simple front and final page for the album:
The quote I chose to include at the bottom of the final page is this one : :
"Enjoy the little things for one day you may look back and realise they were the big things".
I thought it was quite a good one in terms of daily life.
I'm not sure if I will do this project again in the future but I hope so as it will be great for a comparison.
You can see all of my week in the life posts here and you can learn more about the whole project here.
That's really awesome, would be cool to do one every few years, I've done a few and Pete's not even 4, I want to give them to him when he's older, need to slow down on doing them so he doesn't get overloaded with them!
ReplyDeleteI love that quote!
Well done - It looks great!
ReplyDeleteLove the different colours.
And that Friday photo in the shopping trolley is fantastic!
What a great sense of accomplishment you must feel, and probably a small sense of relief that it's done. A lovely book to keep for your family and to show your friends.
A perfect choice of quote to sum up your week. Because it's all about the little things.
Looks fantastic! What a great touchstone of your life at the moment. Love it! Next year I hope to actually stick to it and make it into an album afterwards...yeah right ;)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the lovely comments ladies. I already look at the album with a sense of nostalgia and it's only been a couple of weeks since I did it :-)
