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'd love to win project life! It's something I think my time management would allow me to handle as my "normal" scrapbooking is so far behind due to time constraints. I love the idea of being able to scrap even every day life :) Thank you for the chance on winning!

[JillT]

I've been dragging my feet on this project. . .this would definitely get me moving. Thanks!

[Amanda]

Thanks for the opportunity to win! I had the same struggle you were dealing with but I finally let go and am just making memories instead of worrying about making the most beautiful album (but with PL and how amazing it is already, how can you not make beautiful pages even without trying?)

Thanks again for the chance to win!
