PL2023 - Title Page | Sahlin Studio

I'm not quite ready to dive into this years project life layouts yet, but I do have my title page for 2023 done. I created this title page using the Me & You Collection. It is the featured product for February from Sahlin Studio. Which means, for the whole month you can download it for 50% off the regular price. 

I really agonized over doing this year completely digital and printing out a book at the end of the year, but printing off individual photos and putting them into a photo album won out. I plan to do that again this year. It's worked well for the past couple of years. 

I have to say, I have got a lot of mileage out of the family photos we did in November. I've used them on several layouts already and on our Christmas cards. 

Why does no one do Christmas cards anymore? What's happened? It's still one of my favourite parts of the holiday season to both create and send out cards and to receive cards. Every year however, we get less and less cards in the mail. It makes me sad.  I won't quite doing it, it still brings me so much joy even if the joy isn't returned.

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.
