This year is racing by.
So this month we are going to record a week of our lives!

I have just started a Project Life, after literally years of resisting. I just woke up a few weeks ago and decided "its time". So….. record something that you did in a week.
It might be just one day, or you can do the entire week.
Notes, journaling, a calendar…..what ever takes your fancy.
Might be your weekly menu, or daily tasks. Your favourite tv shows in a week, or just a diary type layout recording your life in a week……
Now, here are my efforts for recording a typical week in our household. There are no real specific details in this for me, as my weeks change week to week being a SAHM. I have different deadlines each week and our home stuff pretty much stays the same, but I recorded what its like here and now!
My starting out process….laying out all the cards and elements…..
My Header is in a 12 x 4 section across the top…..
I used Helmar Acid Free Glue for adhering all my paper, and I used the Tape Runner for the thinner stuff….Perfect glues for this job!
I made all my background cards using Shimmerz Paints, and their new ranges Texturez and Dazzlerz to get the amazing texture.
and the entire page altogether…..
This is a filler page in my PL album, as I only started PL recently, some weeks are just single pages rather than double spreads. This page is a nice transition into when I recorded the weeks better and could do double spreads for one week.
I loved doing this. It will be nice looking back on what a normal week for us looked like for us back in March of 2013!!!
I have another sample to share with you…..This time one Helmar Designer Michelle did with this challenge in mind.
What a cool page, so much texture in there too…..Keep an eye out for Michelle's post on how she did this!
So all you have to do now, is do your own version of Aprils Challenge and Link it up via your blog post or Facebook upload, and link it with our Linky tool in the Right Hand sidebar! Easy as that.
You could even win yourself a vouchure to the Helmar Store! You gotta be in it to win it!!!!
