PL2022 - Week 48 | Sahlin Studio

Okay, I did it. I'm finally caught up to December...

The remainder of my month is going to be a two page spread, hopefully tying all the main December things together.

I'm doing it that way, because I also have my December Daily album, which I'm more than half way through putting it together. I have all the photos printed. I still have to embellish and do some journalling.  My goal was to get it done and shelved by the end of January. I still have a few days left to do that, so it just might happen...

Here is week 48 of my project life album. There were a lot of colour contrasts, so I changed almost all the photos to black and white, so it looks a bit more cohesive. 

 
  • Watching a performance of A Christmas Story, a mainstage show put on by the drama society. 
  • Snuggles with my favourite furry friend.
  • Spruce Meadows craft market with Carrie
  • Fudge making day with the Moe girls.

January 2023 Template Freebie | Sahlin Studio

Happy 2023!! Wow... That doesn't exactly roll off the tongue does it? But it's here nonetheless. After a snow filled November and a truly frigid December, we're enjoying slightly above seasonal temperatures right now, and I'm here for it.  Every day that it's nice right now, is one less day of winter. 

Here is Sahlin Studios first template freebie of the new year. To download the template, follow this link. 


I gave up making new year resolutions years ago. I found that doing that just sets you up for failure. On the other hand, I do like to have goals I'm striving towards. [That seems more manageable to me, and less of a disappointment when I look back and realize I dropped the majority of my resolutions a few days into the new year]
 
For this template layout I used January's featured product: Love Your Body. Through the remainder of this month you can acquire any of the pieces of this collection for 50% the regular price. 

I like to create a list of goals, that I can look back at. Here are my goals for 2023.



It's much easier to talk about getting outside more, when the weather is warmer. Like it is currently. I mean yes, you can definitely dress in layers, but at -40 degrees celsius with the wind, cold is cold... When temps get into the -30's [and they likely will again] it is safe to say, I will be hunkered down inside. 

I know we're not out of the woods yet. We will have some blustery days ahead, but so far, I'm on track. [Me and my little side kick]

I feel like I'm well on my way into 2023.

  • Did Mad go out trick or treating wearing a wolf mask? Yes. Yes indeed. But what a haul...
  • Artist problems. 
  • Halloween was a mild night, we got more trick or treaters than we have ever had. We just about ran out of candy. And the next day it snowed...
  • Date night to see Jesus Christ Superstar.
