I resisted. I told myself that it was for SAHMs and/or moms of small-children-doing-cute-things. I reminded myself that I am thisclose to having my "scrapbooker" membership card revoked. If I was scrapohlic, my confession would sound something like this..."forgive me, Ali, for I have sinned...it has been approximately 14 months since I've told any of my life stories in photos & patterned paper." 

Then. I started reading blog posts about Project Life Twenty Twelve (I told you, I'm a sucker for that alliteration). I blame this all on that Zielske woman. Damn her for reminding me that simple is good. Damn her and her free download (hey little girl, I'll give you a cookie if you get in the windowless van..."). And then, as I told myself to stay strong and resist the Zielske charm...

Elise pushed me over the edge. She's choosing Project Life.

And for the love of all things adhesive & American Crafts D-rings...

so am I.
