Getting Started with Project Life

It's been ages since I last did a scrapbook page.

Not because of lack of time...

Neither because I grew to hate it...

But the truth is that I reached this point were I wanted my pages to be *perfect* in every sense of the way.

The pictures, the papers, the layout, the embellishments... it all had to be *magazine* worthy!

And I simply burned out!

Project Life has been in the market for some time now and I have to be honest... it never got my interest.

Until recently, where everyone was talking about Project Life and *pocket pages* or *pocket scrapbooking*. And since I have zillion pictures sitting on my computer's hard drive (ok not that many pictures, but you get the idea... LOL!), I said "Why not?" and decided to give it a try.

So without much further a do, here are my first pages:






The main subject is my son Sebastián. He has such a good disposition when it comes to pictures... and I know that many boys don't like to have their pictures taken, so I have to take advantage of this opportunity ;-)

The cards that I used for these pages are "Cinnamon Edition" by Project Life, and in case that you didn't notice it, I'm going *hybrid*... meaning that I'm making my layouts, wording, etc. in the computer (Photoshop CC), then I print it all with my color printer, and finally I cut everything out to fit the pocket protectors.

My experience: It's been such a breeze!! LOL! And I'm growing to love it. I'm not saying that I won't be back to traditional scrapbooking, but for now I'll be sticking to this :-)

Thanks for dropping by! ~xoxo~
