Life Goes On

Things aren't perfect, but I guess they would never be. This past week and weeks leading up to it, was filled with busy work and stress. But everything is calming down again. As my title goes, 'Life Goes On'. As I have mentioned, I have been working on Project Me. While most people are doing weeks, I am just doing whatever days are filled with memories. My pages are simpler than most others, but this already took me awhile to do, so I guess it is best I keep them simple.

Hiding Things Well

I have disappeared for a bit, gone long enough to have a few good entries for a week or so. Most of them are going to be about Project Me. But today, I will share a shadow box I made. This was a present for my Cousin's father-in-law. Feedback says that he really liked it, which is very important to me.

For the first section of this shadow box, I thought I was clever in hiding the string to hang the chipboard. The pictures below show how I hide them with out taking out any major tools to drill holes. I tried to add lots of dimension to each frame. I guess that would be the point to to having a shadow box.

Gallery is Up

I have been meaning to show my layouts in a gallery setting and I finally got around to it this week. You can select on the 'Gallery' tab in my menu bar and it will take you to another page where you will find most of my work. I have place them in reverse chronological order of when I made them. The few albums made in 2006 were the beginning stages of my obsession for this hobby. Many of the layouts are simple and plain. But I think it shows how far I have come with my layouts. I am proud of all of these albums I have made. Most are were for friends, but a few will be of my own projects. I am embarrassed to admit it, but when you go through them, you will find MANY spelling and grammatical errors. It is too late to fix or change them now. As I uploaded some of them, I realized some layouts didn't have titles. I tried to add some as I went, but I think I had finished some of these really quickly. But I am sincerely excited to have found Issuu to help me display my work.
