PROJECT LIFE AND SOME ART

Hello, it's Project Life Tuesday time, boy has the week gone by fast again.  Before jumping into PL I first want to shout a HUGE THANK YOU THANK YOU for all the comments on my last post. I enjoyed writing it and it was from my heart and was real for me right then, these are my favorite kinds of posts to write. I especially LOVED that some of you decided to do a RIGHT NOW post also and it was fun to read yours, so thank you for being inspired enough to share about your life right now. This is something I will have to do again, it really does make you stop and see those little things that go unnoticed during the busy days. So thank you from the bottom of my heart, it made my day to read them.
Now for this week's pages, they were fun to work on and it was a slow week on picture taking which was ok for me. It really tells the most important things to remember with a few extra's thrown in the mix. It seems Sam was the star for the week, he has been so good lately and did some AWESOME things that made me happy. How about some close ups of each side....you can click on the images to see them better.
The LS has my only 2 collages of the week, I just had to include more then one picture for these. Sam cleaned his room, his own idea and WOW WOW did he do a great job. Let's talk about the journal cards, I'm still making one a day for JUNE and included some of them here. The first one I just wanted lots of color and was feeling the wonderful SUMMER moment that day so that's what I did for that one. The second card is from some happy mail I recived from Bonita, she sent me paint scraps that are just beautiful. I cut this one down to fit on a journal card and added some text to it. LOVE LOVE IT!! The card with the CLOUDS on it is for Michelle, she makes the best clouds and I want to try this more. I'm not thrilled with them but hey they are clouds, will keep trying. The title card also has a banner on it, inspired to do these more also from Tracey. So this week's pages have a little bit of all of you in them, my heart was full from all those sweet comments you left me. The sunset's I know Deb, Susan, Dawn will love plus they just love reading my PL pages.

The RS has my other favorite story of the week, Sam has been making some cool art. He took my ruler and drew a really cool drawing (see the small cropped photo) and colored,painted it in. He did two of these and he did the little red journal card ( it's a house) he surprised me with this one. Just love when he slows down and sits to create, his ideas are always awesome. The last journal card is a sweet one to remember how happy I was this week. Notice the banner stickers on 2 of my photos, more happy mail from Bonita, thank you dear I love these!! Deb, Rich finally got a bird feeder and the birds have been attacking it everyday, he is loves seeing more birds in our yard again. See that awesome picture upper right side, my home away from home, THE LIBRARY!! I use to work here before having Sam, oh how I love this place and could live here if I had to. Imagine being surrounded by all these books, pure heaven for me and my Renee who says she will live there with me.
So that's my PL for this week and guess what I've been doing a little art myself this week so how about a peek at one of my favorites and will post more later this week!!
This is the kids/hubby's favorite and they don't want me to add anything. I will maybe add words later but for now they are fighting over who gets to have it!! This is on a canvas and I used a paper plate holder for the designs on here, just sprayed paint on it to get these results. Need to do this outside next time, went a little crazy and it got everywhere, lol 
Thanks for taking the time to read this and hope you enjoyed it all. Thanks for being the best readers a girl could have!! Enjoy the rest of your week and see you in a few days for my art post!!

    1. Hi Susan, So glad you got to see my PL this week. I agree about each picture having their own story. I love when my son does art and treasure them when he gives them to me. I would love to work in the library again, such a cozy and fun place to be. I'm glad you liked the art work, want to do this again but BIGGER!! Thank you for the comment on my butterfly card, I loved making it. HUGS
