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 Week in the Life album.

Layout: Everyday Monday

How I did it

For these pages, I simply selected photos and made a collage from them filling in spaces with patterned paper and journaling.

Journaling

Today my seemingly harmless cold turned into a bad respiratory infection.

I could have decided to let it all go, but this year I decided to just go with it and do my best to tell the story even though I wasn't well.

I dragged myself out to my 19 week ultrasound, as there was no way to re-book in the ultrasound this week. All 5 (well 6) of us headed out in the windy weather to see out new baby 'Forbes'.

Phill decided to stay home for the rest of the day since I was so sick.

I spent the rest of the day in bed while Phill did lunch (pies), took Emily to dance and did dinner (roast chicken)..

By the time we got the weekly online shopping delivery from Coles, I was feeling a little better. So I helped clean up the kitchen and games room.

I watched a few barbershop videos (got sucked in searching for a good rendition of “I woke up this morning feelin' fine” barbershop style). Phill wasn't so impressed.

We watched an episode of Arrow and then I was in bed by 8:30pm

This year, I splashed out and bought Ali Edward's digital kit just for the fun of it this year. I added all the elements to one PSD and saved one for each day. If I get time I'll add more layout but I'm just keeping it basic for now - one 2 pager per day.
