Project Life: Week 12

Woohooo....on schedule!  I just finished Week 12 of my Project Life.  This was for March 17-23 which, of course, included St. Patrick's Day.  We love to celebrate that day....although I'm sure the way we celebrate is much different than how ol' St. Patrick himself would have imagined!

I decided that I would just use various greens and shamrock/Irish inspired items for my papers and embellishments.  I used all items I HAD...some of this paper is Making Memories paper that I have had for many years.  I love that aspect of Project Life....I am often able to use things I have on hand.

Ahhhhh....and I used my Silhouette a good bit this week.  You'll see.  Fabulous....

Here we go...left side first:

That's my son and his girlfriend, D'Ann, in the top photos.  We didn't get to celebrate with them but I think they had a good time doing their own thing with friends.

We do celebrate with corned beef and cabbage and this year I did it all in my crock pot with some Guiness Stout...all I can say is YUM!

Spring arrived one day and left the next....look at those temperatures for my area!  Brrrr!  I did not journal about that but in this case I think the picture tells the story....although I may go add a few words.  :)

And the bottom right is my daughter getting her first "official" ultrasound.  I guess they do one in the dr's office to confirm pregnancy but this was the first big one.

Here is my "week" card with a banner cut file from the Silhouette store.  I made the the "week 12" card myself in the Silhouette Software.

 Below is from a cut in the Silhouette store, too....I loved the way it looked and just added some Copic colored gems to the shamrocks.

Just a little Washi tape here with a Becky Higgins grid card that I cut down.

And to the right side:

Just above you can see my new grandbaby...is it a girl or boy?  We have no idea...I can barely make out the shape of a baby in an ultrasound except I can see the head on this one! LOL!  Anyway, we are thinking boy....but time will tell, won't it?

Another cut file from the Silhouette store....

A print and cut filler card I made in the Silhouette software....easy peasy....I cut an extra shamrock to layer to give it a bit of dimension.

 

And lastly a journaling card I designed myself in the Silhouette Softward.  Took less than 5 minutes and then I had a custom cut!  The shamrock was just a png file I found off the internet and imported.  Again...pretty easy peasy!

And that's it for Project Life for this week...

Happy Crafting!
