O kit tem um álbum, plásticos, e papéis decorados para enfeitar e escrever. A idéia é você retratar um ano da sua vida, com sete fotos por semana. Mas mais do que um kit de scrap, o Project Life é uma filosofia de vida quase!
The kit contains and album, plastic protectors, and cute cardstock cards and papers . The idea is to use the kit to tell the story of a year, with 7 photos a week. But more than a scrapbooking kit, Project Life is a way of life.

A vida é maravilhosa. Mas é ocupada.
Life is wonderful. But life is busy.

Tiramos fotos para registrar os momentos.
We take pictures to capture the moments.

E é um verdadeiro desafio fazer alguma coisa com as fotos que tiramos. Mesmo sendo apaixonados por esse aspecto da nossa vida.
It's a real challenge to makethe effort to create something with the pictures we are taking. Even tough we are passionate about that aspect of our life.

Nós precisamos preservar essas memórias.
We need to not let those memories go.

E se pudesses deixar pra lá essa pressão de criar elaborados layouts para preservar essas memórias? E se pudesse ser simples e fácil?
What if we could let go of the pressure to create elaborate scrapbook layouts to preserve those memories? What if it could be simple and easy?

Eu sempre falei isso para as minhas alunas. Scrapbooking não precisa ser difícil e demorado. Pode ser lindo e simples. Lindo e rápido. O importante são as fotos, as palavras.
I have always said that in my classes. Scrapbooking doesn't have to be hard and complicated. It can be simple and beautiful. Fast and beautiful. The important things are the words and the photos.
Para 2012 não comprei o Project Life. Os kits ficaram disponíveis para comprar muito no final do ano, não ia dar tempo de chegar para começar o ano com ele em mãos, e aí não quis. Mas vou fazer o meu, talvez não desse formato semanal, mas vou sim fazer um álbum simples para registrar nossa vida esse ano. E prometo dividir todo processo aqui com vocês! E vou comprar para 2013 o Project Life com certeza.
I didn't buy the new kit for 2012. The new kits were available by the very end of the year, and I wouldn't get it on time to start the new year, and then I just didn't buy it. But I'm keeping record of my year in a simple way, for sure. And I'm buying the kit for 2013 in advance, for sure!

Comprei o kit em 2010, e registrei meu ano de 2011 com ele. Acabei comprando um álbum a mais, porque coloquei muita coisa extra, e esse foi o resultado...
I bought the kit in 2010, and used it to record my life in 2011. I ended up buying an extra album, because I put so much extra stuff in it, and this is the result...

Esse é o caderno do jornal falando sobre as gravação do Caldeirão do Huck, uma coisa tão marcante que aconteu ano passado.
This is an insert from our local newspaper about a very famous TV show that was taped for a week in the hotel my husband works. It was a very big deal for us, my daughter got to go to a taping, and one of her very favorite bands was guest star.

Mas o que tem mais nesse álbum é foto do dia a dia. Das pequenas/grandes coisas da vida. Semana com muitas fotos, semana com poucas, semana com muita coisa escrita, semana com menos. Sem pressão. Sem obrigação.
But most of this album is filled with pictures from our everyday life. Little/big things. There are weeks with lots of pictures, weeks with just 4 or 5, weeks with a lot of journaling, weeks with just a few lines. No pressure. No obligation.

Claro que eu continuo amando fazer scrap, aqueles layouts elaborados e demorados! Prova disso é meu Year in my Life, que é um complemento maravilhoso para o Project Life. Meu escape criativo, o lugar para eu colocar as fotos mais especiais, ampliadas, enfeitadas! Algumas que estão no project life, outras que não estão. Dia 10 de Janeiro TODAS as minhas fotos de 2011 estavam impressas, guardadas no álbum tudo escrito, organizado e preservado. O sentimento de ciclo encerrado, missão cumprida, é demais! E ver esse álbum ajuda a lembrar quantos bons momentos tivemos em 2011.
Of course I still love scrapbooking, making those elaborate layouts that take forever! Proof of it is my A Year in my Life project, a wonderful complement of Project Life. A Year in My Life is my creative escape, the place for the special pictures, enlarged and embelished!
By January 10th, 2012, ALL my pictures from 2011 were printed, and stored in a beautiful album, with journaling to go with them, organized and preserved. The feeling of achievement, is amazing. And looking through this album helps us remember how many good moments we had in 2011.
