April Project Life + Giveaway!

ETA: Drawing is now closed. I will be drawing the winner at random and then sharing the name of the lucky winner Wednesday morning.

I have been conflicted.  Now I'm not... and it feels great.

So, as I just stated, I have been conflicted. I have always loved scrapbooking in the traditional sense of paper + embellishements + trimming + kitchen sink,  but honestly, I've got to keep it real right now... my life is busy! I really need everything to be right in front of me on my computer sometimes and mess free. I've been conflicted to embrace the digital route more completely because somewhere along the line I picked up this stupid notion that digital scrapbooking just wasn't as creative, didnt' look as good, or was a cop-out... but that is SO not true! I've always been on the hybrid side of scrapbooking, but I'm glad that in the last week I had an 'ah-ha!' moment that makes me feel liberated: DOES IT HONESTLY MATTER HOW I CREATE & DOCUMENT, AS LONG AS I DO?  Uh, no! If this works better for me right now, or here & there, or whenever, I am going to embrace it and not feel guilty about it. Am I saying that I am abandoing traditional all together? Nope. Especially when it comes to Project Life, but if digital makes life easier and the process quicker now and then, count me in! There's room for both.

So, with that out of the way, here is my first 100% digital Project Life layout:  

I will be sharing more of my Project Life pages this week, so check back! (Supply list at the bottom of this post.) You can purchase Becky Higgins digital kits HERE at JessicaSprague.com.

I've been fighting the digital scrapbooking for ages too, but I just don't have enough time to do regular scrapbooking without locking myself in a room for hours on end! And my boys get into all my stuff :( digital seems like a realistic solution for me.

Thanks for the giveaway!

I can completely relate to your post. I started as a traditional scrapper but after having my kids I reluctantly (at first anyway) switched to digital because I could never find time to use my traditional supplies. And now I am completely hooked!
