Finally done

I mentioned that i wanted to change the blog around, and i have finally gotten it to a place that i like. I wanted a change, but each of the changes i made just didn't seem like me. This weekend i was playing around with some business card ideas for my sister, and came up with a new blog headder in the process. I LOVE this one, it seems more me, and is a nice change!
So here is what my original blog looks like:

Then i changed it to this:

And now i am keeping it like this!


I decided to change the name because i have grown out of it, literally. I am growing up, soon to be 19, which is still a teenager, but i feel more like an adult, and then name just didn't fit anymore. 
Anyway hope you all like the new change, Have  a nice day!

Album idea

Elise Blaha is one of my favorite bloggers, when ever i see her in my feed, i'm  instantly excited, all of her work and craft projects are so inspirational! I fell in love with her blog a couple years ago after she posted a project on Ali edwards blog, i was instantly hooked! Her mini-books are what initially grabbed.

She posted a project about an album she's going to do this year, and i love it so much i might just do one like it too! you can find her's here.

i like the different size of the photos she uses, it's so unique and different then anything i have ever done.




i think i will include pictures from the month, doing full pictures for the ones i absolutley love, and then collages for the other ones.

As for the journaling, i will use these templates which you can find here, herehere and here and i'm not sure how but i'll have to expand them to fit the page size, i'll try it out in Photoshop or illustrator and see how it turns out!

I think it's a great take on Project life, and very easy and simple to complete!

Love this

Found this on tumblr yesterday, i love it! Could you imagine finding a little not like this on a bench, or in a book? i think i might just write up a few of these and leave them somewhere for someone to find.

For my technical writing class this semester, i had to create a set of instructions. So i decided to make cupcakes! I had to design what it would look like, i wanted it to be colorful, and fun looking, something that would inspire you to make my cupcakes! This was the final result:
Thanks for looking!

40 things layout

I wrote This blog post a couple years ago about "40" things about me, and i made a layout about it so i can see the passage of time. i think it would be interesting to do something like this every couple years, and see the difference. Or maybe once every birthday would be a good idea too.

i printed off as many bullets on the sheet of paper that i could fit, and then printed the entire list and tucked it behind the layout with a little tab. which can be pulled out to read.

Birthday layout

i can't believe this was two years ago, that seems so weird to me. i also can't believe i am about to turn 19 in a couple months too! Why do we have to grow up so fast? I wish i could slow it down for a little while.

This was made after my birthday, one of my friends threw me a surprise party. But i had guessed what she was doing and it wasn't much of a surprise for me. I'm good a guessing things!!

i tried to include as many pictures as i can, there were so many that were taken that night! And i am also including this in my high-school scrapbook, which has pages made from activities from school, of hanging out with friends, i'm including everything i can from grade 10 until grade 12.
