I was just sitting at the computer and looked over to see the snow falling and blowing once again. A winter storm watch has been in effect since last night at 10:00. It wasn’t too bad early this morning when I ventured out to an ENT appointment, but by noon when I met a friend for lunch the driving had gotten pretty dicey. I’m glad to say I’m home with no intentions of going out again until at least noon tomorrow. Depending on how long this lasts, it may be longer!
I wasn’t able to catch the blowing snow (so much more dramatic) from my studio window, but I did decide that the scene made an appropriate Zoom In, Zoom Out subject for Helena’s meme.
Ali Edwards Photo template
I’ve spent quite a bit of time this week working on my December Project Life layouts. Given our schedule this year, it’s turning out to be quite a few pages! I thought I ought to get the November ones posted (they’ve been done except for the journaling for ever so long), before I start sharing the December ones. I must say it’s a joy to work in a cleaned-out, well-organized studio. All that hard work really paid off.
I used the same Ali Edwards photo template on this layout as the Zoom In, Zoom Out to show the extremes in weather we had in November. The circles at the top of the title were stamped with a Pink Paislee “Sentiment Series.” I inked the wood veneer leaves directly on the stamp pad.
Page two documents Thanksgiving. The two top pockets on the right-hand side were originally one large photo collage that I cut apart. I’m not sure who created the collage. A long time ago I separated a lot of my digital photo templates into folders by the number of photos they hold. It works well except not all of them have the designer information still attached to them.
The digital stamp on the bottom left photo is from Paislee Press, and the photo template with the pictures of Skylar is on of Cathy Zielske’s “Labeled Photo” sets.
Hope to be back tomorrow with this week’s Frugal Still Life.
Skylar looks like such a fun little imp! I ventured out at 1:00 for an eye dr. appt. and did all the shoveling of ice when I got back at two – barely made it into my own driveway! I’m really ready for Spring.
Gorgeous! I even have a snow picture this week. I was so thrilled to see some of the white stuff in December, but I definitely can’t see myself driving in it.

beautiful images of snow – I love to look out on it through a window in a cosy room
The snow looks so beautiful…though I’m still pleased we haven’t got any!!
Ooh, stay safe and warm! It does look beautiful, and I was saying here yesterday that snow at least would be brighter than our rain. But I know the reality isn’t quite so pretty.
There are such gorgeous smiles on some of those PL pages
Winter is certainly having the time of it’s life this year for so many states. We’ve had very little snow but the COLD is getting to me. – Great shots for your Zoom In-Zoom Out.
I admire people who are able to do photo journaling and scrapbooks. I’ve just never gotten into that (although I should so my pictures would be somewhere besides the computer.)
Oh my gosh, I felt cold just LOOKING at your zoom in/out photos! Brrrr! Your project life pages look great, Karen, and that Skylar is the cutest little thing!
Such beautiful photos Karen and I love the template you used.
Wow-beautiful snow photos! We had snow yesterday but it’s mostly melted (ice!) now . . . more predicted for later today, so I have a day or two at home.
Looks lovely out there but I’d be glad to be inside too – especially in a cleaned up studio 🙂
Your photos are always lovely – from the snowy ones to the smiling Skylar one. This album us going to be glorious!
