Take Twelve done on the 12th—-very unusual. I’ve even printed the layout on legal sized paper and think I may make a one page layout with it. But perhaps, I’ll print each separately and do a two-page layout. I can’t decide so I’ll post the photos here for now. The template is one from Ella Publishing’s Take Twelve set.
I love the two pages laid out together. But for better viewing here they are separately.
The journaling reads: Maureen came to lunch today. It was her first chance to see our new kitchen. I made a favorite, baked chicken salad, and a new dessert: caramel crunch brownies which are fabulous. I’m still working on the Sunday crossword puzzle, and refilled my little cup with my favorite mechanical pencils. The clementines are sitting on our counter, reminding me to snack on fruit when I get hungry. It works most of the time.
The beautiful flowers were a gift from Maureen. After lunch I took some clothes to the tailors to be altered as well as a lovely article about the tailor’s daughter who is now a co-owner. New phone books arrived today. It’s always a dilemma to figure out what to do with them, since we use the tiny ones in the kitchen which are not updated. I had to ice my knee (bursitis) while we watched the evening news. This month I’m reading “The Marriage Plot,” as well as a book on Lightroom and some travel books on Washington, D.C. —-all on the iPad.
Like Capture Your 365+1, I’m happy to be keeping up with this project. It’s fun to record one day a month, something I know I wouldn’t do without this motivation.
The composition of your photos is always great! I like the two page spread. I’ve just posted my 12 photos for the day, although I’m not creating layouts with them.
Wow! Nice work getting the layout done on the 12th too! Beautiful photos to capture your day.
That Bursitis sounds nasty, I hope it settles down soon!
I think we might need those recipes too – they sound delicious!
What great fun, to have a peek into someone else’s day. Beautiful flowers, love the sound of the book and look after the knee.
Hope the knee is feeling better.
I absolutely love the chequered thing you have going on here with the colander and the crossword. It looks so good!
Your photos are always so gorgeous, Karen! They jump out of your layouts!
Love the way black/white checkerboards repeat throughout and in the layout.

Yes me too, the black white & splash of red are fabulous. I really love your LO Karen and I forgot to do this! It is such a lovely way to record one whole day. I might try 17 on the 17th for St. Pats day!
I love the design of this page! And the colors in your photos are so pretty! Thanks for participating in the Ella Take Twelve project!
Love your layout – great design and your photos really pop off of the page.
