Each week I share a scrapbook layout to give you a little sneak peek into what I’m scrapping, and inspire you to play with pretty pixels too.
Today I’m sharing a page from my 2014 One Little Word Project. Each year I choose a word to focus on - in previous years I've chosen Grow, Focus, Play and Finish. It helps inspire me to positive action in my life.
Today I'm also joining in the Make it Monday blog hop. You may have came from my friend Gina who creating a tag using plastic packaging from our favorite scrapbooking supplies but if not, be sure to check out her post too.
Layout: Finish
Make it Yourself!
I've used quick pages many times to get layouts finished fast. Quick pages come with the papers and embellishments done for you and you just add your photo, title and journaling. Here's how you can use a quick page yourself.
I created this page as part of a Layout a Day challenge. In Layout a Day, we are challenged to create, strangely enough, a layout each day, so time is of the essence. I pulled out a older quick page from my stash, added a recent selfie and called it good. FINISHed!
I added a title using a font and journaling in my own handwriting font and it was done!
Journaling
If there’s one thing I will do this year, it’s finish! No more 95% done.

I love it when I can find a use for a quick page! I have so many which don’t seem to fit what I’m doing, or my photo is the wrong orientation! Love your page with all the washi tape look on the edges. YOU make the page, with that photo!
