project life august – december 2014 and my plan for 2015

January 1, 2015

cover14

First I want to say that attempting Project Life in 2014 was hard but really fun. It was super difficult to keep up at a consistent flow, partly due to me not having enough time to sit down and make spreads and to me not really taking as many picture as I should. I also started my album in May, so it isn’t a full year. Also, I documented the month of September in my travel journal and only included a few photos of my trip in my Project Life spread because I thought it would be a bit redundant to have my trip repeated twice. All in all, 2014 was a good start. I documented a lot more than I thought I would.

So here’s the last bit of my Project Life 2014 album.



And here’s a completed flip through of my entire album.

Now, for 2015 I’m going to take the same approach, but do things a bit different as well. I’m still going to stick to the 6×8 album spread–this year I’ll be using a Studio Calico Handbook–and document my year in a “go with the flow” style, instead of doing it weekly or monthly. But I will be more conscious of adding to my album daily. Even if I don’t have a photo, just a little journaling on a card would be good. I’m hoping if I take this approach, I will keep up with my album more efficiently and I will prevent those bouts of time where I don’t do anything, then have to make it up weeks–sometimes months–later. Hopefully this also allows me to use up the many journalling cards I have hoarded over the year. Seriously, one intention of mine is to use up my stash instead of hoarding it, then buying more. I rather not purge, but use up the materials.

Besides that, I haven’t really thought much about how I’ll do my 2015 album. Just sticking to the same process really, since it did work for me in 2014. I guess, I’ll just have to be more aware of certain things and make sure to carry my camera around with me so that I have more memories to preserve in 2015!

    This is such a wonderful idea! I adore how it turns out, you did a terrific job. It looks absolutely beautiful. Good luck on your 2015 project! (You should try polaroids, too)

      Thank you! And I did! I have a couple of earlier spreads where I used polaroid photos I took with my Instax mini! Project Life is just an amazing format cause you can literally slip anything into the pockets.

Still working in my @getmessyartjournal Season of Still working in my @getmessyartjournal Season of Bloom art journal. I had so much fun with this color scheme and style that I went ahead and made two matching #littleartnotes! This color combo is super rare for me (Titan Buff and Titan Mars Pale with Payne's Gray marks), but I'm really digging it! 

Happy Friday Loves! xx
When I originally set up these pages in my @getmes When I originally set up these pages in my @getmessyartjournal Season of Bloom art journal, I left a lot of space to write about what blooming means to me. It means growth, blossoming, and becoming. It means to flourish. It also represents nature and the restorative power of being in the wild. 

Bloom means a lot to me and yet while finishing up some of these half-finished pages, I was at a loss for words. This is when I found that word phrase stickers really help get the message across. xx
Just another spread in my @getmessyartjournal Seas Just another spread in my @getmessyartjournal Season of Bloom art journal. A lot of these pages were already in progress, so it's interesting to see them finished. I'm sure I had other intentions for what they were going to look like a couple of years ago when I first created this journal. Now, I'm content with matching colors, adding paint, and a few scribbles. This journal is all about the process of creating for me now, which I think is still a source of growth. xx
Another spread in my @getmessyartjournal Season of Another spread in my @getmessyartjournal Season of Bloom art journal. I rather like how this one turned out! I'm quite obsessed with using this Payne's Gray NeoColor crayon to make some scattered marks on my page. You might see a lot more of this in future spreads from this book. xx
I've been enjoying following along with the @getme I've been enjoying following along with the @getmessyartjournal #getmessymay prompts. I've basically been just watching them as they are posted. But the other night, I attempted the Happy prompt and it literally has gotten back into simply playing around with my supplies. I pulled out this very old Seasons of Bloom journal that is SO CLOSE to being finished. I figure I'd channel all of this creative energy I have right now to finishing it up!

I'm not responding to any particular prompt, just using the processes and techniques shared to finally complete this journal. xx
