Project Life Weeks 5-6

8:12 PM MeganKP 0 Comments

Welcome to project life weeks 5&6! I got a little behind, but I am now all caught up, and that's all thanks to digital! If this was paper, I would definitely still be behind! I am loving going digital more and more every week. 

Some things I changed recently: I added a white boarder around each photo, I think it's a little cleaner this way, and a little more cohesive. See my previous posts to see how I did it before. I have now changed those layouts in my book, to keep it all consistent! 

*** Also Disclaimer, the spread below shows the Canadian flag as a marijuana leaf, I in no way endorse this, or take part in those kinds of activities, one of my favorite singers just so happens to sing about it a lot and included it in his concert, and that's the only picture I have with his name and the stage.***

Here's the spread:

 Here's what happened:

  • Went to chapters for research: the best kind of research: DESIGN! I had to get some inspiration for both my magazine assignment and book assignment! 
  • The Eric Church concert was the highlight of the week basically!
  • The next week was valentines day
  • Also the canadian government discontinued the penny! 
  • I created a new logo for myself
  • And one of my favorite pictures: Calgary at night, from the space station! Seriously how cool! (I got that pic from twitter, I am following Commander Hadfield, who is a Canadian astronaut on the space station right now, and he posts some really cool stuff! If you would like to follow him CLICK HERE!)

Project Life Week 4

4:46 PM MeganKP 6 Comments

Project Life week 4 complete! I am finding it really easy this year to get the spreads done, and quickly. I edit all my photos and convert them to CMYK and 300dpi for printing purposes, and then just drag and drop them all in the template. Then I add text and embellishments etc. It is SO EASY! I don't have to worry about printing, and then cutting and assembling, once it's done it's done! I love not having to spend so much time on this anymore, but still get the same result!

Full Spread:


Spread 1:


Spread 2:


Here's what happened this week:

  • I know the photo of my mouth is a little obnoxious, but it was a big deal. After dealing with over 6 months of dentist appointments, my root canal is finally finished! And I can have a normal smile again!
  • I also got a haircut this week! Hence the 4 photos of me in a row! 
  • Me and Nevan celebrated our 1-year on thursday the 24th, we went out for dinner and just spent time together. 
  • Also included is the song I am loving right now, "Some Nights" by Fun. 
I would love to see other project life pages! So please share a link if you can!

Happy Happy Girl!

1:12 PM MeganKP 0 Comments

I have had the same MacBook since my grade 11 year, so that's about 5 years now. I have consistently been running out of memory for the past 2 years, and this weekend I got yet another pop-up that I was running out of start-up space.

This is a huge problem for me because the Adobe programs I run need a lot of memory in order to run properly, and when they don't have enough they crash. So finally I decided to re-search some options and get this fixed once and for all.

So I went to a trusty Mac store and $400 later I now have 4 times the amount of memory I had before, and I AM SO HAPPY!

I cannot even tell you how much easier my life is now that my computer is running in tip-top shape!

I no longer dread opening up my computer, and working on projects. I am now excited again because it is so FAST!

Anyway, this was probably a big highlight of my weekend!

See look, 500GB of space now! Woohoo!
