The Awesome Ladies Project - Book of Me Workshop

Happy Wednesday! I'm so excited to share this really awesome workshop from The Awesome Ladies ProjectThe Book of Me workshop is an amazing year long course where participants share their stories. There is no right or wrong way to complete this workshop. You can choose to use a mini album, a travelers notebook, journal, notebook, hybrid album, photo album, etc. for your individual Book of Me project. The only thing that you have to do is be open and honest with your storytelling.

It took me a while to decide which format I wanted to use for my Book of Me. I thought about my One Little Word and decided that I'm going to use my Moleskine sketchbook for this workshop. Many of you may know that my word for the year is grow. The three main goals that I hope to accomplish this year is to grow as a writer, grow as a creative, and grow as a person. The Book of Me workshop is a fantastic way to help me along the way to my journey of growing.

This month's Book of Me chapter is Currently. You all know how much I love currently lists so I thought it was only right to use a currently list card in this layout. Now you may be surprised to see that I actually made a scrapbook layout instead of something in my sketchbook. However, I do plan to journal in my sketchbook and will share that at a later date.


As for this layout, I decided to document my birthday. Every year, I make a birthday scrapbook layout and I thought it would be perfect to document the things that I am currently doing now. I think it will be great to look back at the things that I was doing on my birthday. 

To make this layout, I used a bunch of items and kits from Freckled Fawn, a pink currently list, and a few other embellishments. I also used a selfie that was taken a day before my birthday (I decided to celebrate all week long). 

Check out The Awesome Ladies Project's blog for more information on how I created this layout, more information on the currently lists, and to learn more about the Book of Me workshop.

Do you plan to participate in the Book of Me workshop?

Thanks for visiting!

Until next time...
