Project Life 2014 | Week 6

Week 6! I spent most of my week in Chicago. It was cold and busy so I didn't have too many great photos. I struggled putting this week together. Not sure why, maybe the lack of photos, but it took me several attempts to finish this week up. Overall, I'm pretty happy with it.

This week, I'm using Design S (back side of week 5) and Design C.

Here is the left side. Since I spent so much time on this spread, I also spent a ton of time digging through my stash. I was probably hoping it would spark some inspiration but not so much. That being said, I found a bunch of cool stuff and tried to use it this week.

I've been wanting to go to this pizza place for several weeks now. We decided to try it out before I spent a week in Chicago. It was super good and now I want to go back. I love when restuarants have cool stickers or cards for me to take home. 

I took this photo of my closet while I was packing and used my Hot Mess stamp. Truth be told, my closet has been much messier before but didn't want to miss an opportunity to use my one of favorite stamps.

The orange/coral pattern on the right is from my Sugar Rush printable set. It says 'It's a Beautiful Life.' but I decided to cover that up in this case to create a custom journaling card. I like to get as much use out of things as possible. 

I always save my plane ticket stubs but don't always use them. In this case, I needed "stuff" so here it is. The 'Let's Fly Away' is from this Dear Lizzy roller phrase stamp and is pretty perfect here.

Here is the right side and more randomness. Design C is a really good one to use if you're running low on photos.

I never thought I'd miss public transportation so much! It was soooooooo (ooooooooo) cold when I was in Chicago so I tried to spend as little time outside as possible. 

I have, like, a million labels in a mini loaf tin on my desk. I used a bunch here to journal about my night out in a different format.

I was happy to be done with this spread and move on. The others since have come together much easier for me.

Awesome layouts! I like how you used the plane ticket. I always save mine too...but almost never use them! I really like the idea of using just the smaller stub part. Maybe I'd actually use them in my pages if I did it that way!

Cute layout! Clever using the ticket next to the airplane photo!
