Hey everyone! I finished up four more weeks in my 2017 Project Life album a week ago and figured I would share all four of them here with you this week. If my PL pages aren't your thing, I apologize. Lol. I do have a few layouts in the works, surprisingly enough. It's been a while since I've created one, so I'm looking forward to having those finished up and ready to share soon. 

So, here's a look at week thirty four. I had more photos than usual for this week, so I worked in a 6×12" insert page. 

Here's a look at the first half of the weekly spread, with the 6×12" insert on the right. 

I kept with black and white filler cards, as I felt like I had a lot of darker colors going on in my photos this week. I added an older green glittered chipboard star to the center of the black and white diagonal striped card, and a white puffy star sticker to the center as well. 

I didn't witness the eclipse that everyone was talking about, and viewing, last August. But I did still manage to document in a Instagram post that day, when I realized it must have been happening, as my house went super dark. The "eclipse" was just added to my journaling card with a brush script font that I have on my laptop. 

I feel like I add "yum" to a lot of my food photos, as it's an easy description. It also uses alpha stickers that I don't use as often as others, with the "y" and "u". Always a plus 😉

I try and link to these weekly title cards every once in a while, even though I've linked to them a ton over the last year. I get asked about them a lot 😉 These are the Weekly Edition Journaling Cards, from One Little Bird. I just have them printed right along with my photos, making them super easy to use.

Sarah sends me so few photos each month, so I have to use what she sends me. Even with silly little "perfect pairs" on them. Lol. 

In the previous week, I had a photo of a paint can, and this was the end result of that can of paint. I painted a chalkboard wall in Sarah's room, after really loving the look of the one in Alyssa's room (that was actually Sarah's room when I painted that wall, before they switched). 

Here's a look at the second half of the weekly spread, with the 6×12" insert on the left. 

A fun photo of the Arts & Entertainment Team that Alyssa worked with at school.

The A&E team had a busy week, getting ready to kick off the school year with their big Block Party event. I loved all of the Snapchat photos she sent me as they were preparing for the big day. Part of which included canvasing the surrounding neighborhood to leave sound advisory flyers, as the Block Party involves lot of music of course.

I had an empty 4×6" pocket on the insert page, and I went with one of the first filler cards that stood out to me. The "everything is amazing" card is from a Becky Higgins Project Life kit. 

I was short another 4×6" photo for the week to fill this top pocket on the second page of the spread. I could have made one of my photos a 4×6", but I had these two photos of the daycare kiddos that I wanted to include, so I simply adhered them to a 4×6 piece of cardstock to slip into the pocket. 

For a while, I was using a lot of these little white tags and adding them to my photos here and there. I must have forgot about them, because I don't think I had used them in a while. They're just the right size for adding a few alpha stickers to them to describe the photo. 

I'll be back tomorrow with a look at thirty five!
