Thankful {Day 4 - Day 9}

Well, so far so good on keeping up with my daily album for November. It reassures me that I'll be able to make it through my first attempt with a daily December album as well. I honestly don't think I'd be able to remain so motivated if I had to send my photos out to be printed.


From here on, I'll be working with my prompts out of order. I know others that are participating are doing it much more randomly and without prompts, but I'm happy to be using them as it gives me direction. That being said, I am changing one of them completely. :)


I'm also enjoying the continued photography practice I'm getting from taking a photo a day. Getting down low or standing above for a different perspective has been helpful in obtaining many of these shots. Also, making the filler cards has been great practice, so hopefully my Project Life pages are jazzed up a bit more in the future!


You can see my previous alum posts HERE, and on Instagram I post my daily picture using #mythankful30. Please share if you have been or will be putting together a project of what you're thankful for, I'd love to see it!

    Loving this project. I was hoping to get one done this year but too much going on. Maybe next year. Loved that shot of the road and your kitty.

    LOL on the whip it card! Made my day! I love when you cut photos in half and display them in adjecent pockets! It is sooo cool! Your photos are lovely, I wish I could take more photos like that of things rather than just people. I love the day 9 filler card with the arrows! Is that one that you've made?

      Thanks Mirabyll! I began a photo a day challenge recently to work on my photography and it's amazing how differently I'm being inspired. That card is a PL Kraft core kit card with a couple of Basic Grey {Persimmon} embellishments and a stamped image from the Oct Freckled Fawn embellishment kit. :)

    I love the angle of your car photo - very cool! I agree with the other posts - your photos have so many different perspectives. It keeps your pictures interesting. Oh, and I love how you're grateful for your bed. I am for ours too. We have a Tempur-pedic bed and we love it. We often miss it when we're away from home. :)
