Project 365~ A Year of Photos

The concept of project 365 has been around for awhile. Mostly photographers trying to learn different techniques. It was made popular for scrapbookers by Becky Higgins http://www.beckyhiggins.com/ She even has a kit for sale to make the whole process easier. I'm gonna do my own thing though. Not because the kits not gorgeous, but because I have an overwhelming amount of stash that I need to use up. LOL

Until I did the December Daily last month I hadn't scrapbooked in ages, but I'm really excited about this project so I hope I can keep it up. I have taken pics for every day so far, & I'm working on getting my journaling caught up. I need to get some pics printed so I can start my pages.

I'm doing a 2 page 12x12 layout for each week, with smaller pages for days with more pictures.(holidays, birthdays,etc...)I would also like to do little pages for BOM(book of me) & One Little Word pages.

Visit the Attic!

I found this lovely blog a few weeks ago. I've had so much fun stopping in to visit Lucy at Attic 24. I absolutely adore her whimsical style & cheery outlook. Every post is like a wonderful get together of friends. http://attic24.typepad.com/weblog/
She is a very talented & inspiring crocheter. There is even a flickr account for people to post their projects inspired by her. http://www.flickr.com/groups/attic24inspired/ I'm gonna give her hexagon granny a try. http://attic24.typepad.com/weblog/hexagon-howto.html

Reading through her blog is encouraging me to try to put a bit more of myself into my blog. So here are a few random things about me.

*My favorite drink is chai tea. I'm addicted.
*I'm claustaphobic.
*Fall is my favorite time of year. I love the smell of dry leaves.
*I've been married to my best friend for over 14yrs. He still makes me laugh harder than anyone else.
