Bella Blvd Studio Blog: Project Life: Bella Style

Project Life is everywhere these days, in many shapes and forms. Whether you create full Project Life albums, a few Project Life inspired layouts/spreads here and there, or even simply working Project Life style products (such as Bella's new Daily Details papers) onto your everyday layouts, there are so many ways to incorporate this popular style into your designs. We are asking our designers to be inspired by Project Life, and show us how they work that inspiration onto their own pages.

"Project Life Cover/Title page: 2015" by Leanne Allinson.

My Project Life title page for 2015 has been kept very simple with a classic color scheme. The black, white and gray tones have been enhanced with a small touch of blue to create a visual triangle. I didn't want to over complicate my spread with too many details and so I reached for the new Clear Cuts transparencies to add an extra dimension of interest to my pockets, without creating the extra clutter or bulk. The Clear Cuts were the perfect base for adding alphas to form our family name and a few word strips stickers that express exactly what I want to document in my Project Life process during 2015. I finished the spread by choosing one family photo and an individual photo of each of my children. All photos were converted to black and white to create cohesion with the rest of the page.

“Week 22 & 23”, by Wendy Antenucci.

How in the world has another half of the year passed in my project life, I just got started again! Obviously time is flying by and the Color Chaos collection makes documenting our lives quick and easy! I chose my favorite Daily Detail cards as the beginning of my process, I then decided to carry the black and pink throughout the 2 pages. I couldn't resist fussy cutting that cute camera out of one of the cards and using it on my love card. A few well-placed sentiment stickers and other fun stickers and chipboard finished up my weeks. The new Enamel DooDads make a great addition to Project Life documenting as they aren't very large, but add a nice sense of dimension to my pages.

Supplies:
Color Chaos: Months, Words of Wisdom, Daily Details, Just Write Journaling Stickers, Treasures & Text; Campout: Campout Icons; Simply Spring: Treasures & Text; High Five Alpha Stickers: Gulf; Enamel DooDads: Punch, Milk White
