So here's the scoop!
I just wrapped up designs for a new Project Life collection — the Olive Edition. Becky Higgins announced the news on her blog this morning, along with a ton of sneak peeks.
I'm sure a bunch of you are already familiar with Becky and her
Project Life mission to "cultivate a good life & record it." If not though, I will LOVE to be the first to tell
you. Project Life is a fun and easy system for housing treasured
pictures, thoughts, memories, and life's important details, without the
time, fuss, expense and gewgaw of a traditional scrapbooking approach.
Of course, you can add as much gewgaw as you like.
Basically, you get a Project Life album, along with some thoughtfully-laid-out plastic sleeves (lots of configurations available) and a kit
of double-sided cards to slip into those sleeves along with your photos.
You can use the cards to track details and stories relating to your
photos or just use the decorated sides of the cards to add personality
to your album—or as placeholders till you are ready to write the details
down. There are paper packs and plastic month dividers too.
Here's the idea…
I have kept journals since I was ten years old. I know first-hand the
benefits of keeping a personal record. You recognize your blessings
better, you appreciate your day more, time doesn't seem so fleeting, and
on top of that, you are left with a treasure for your loved ones to
prize for generations.
Project Life makes all of these life-keeping benefits easy to access.
So, on top of my thrill in curating the new Olive collection for
Becky, like the founder of The Hair Club for Men said in his commercial,
"I'm also a customer."
The Project Life Olive Edition by Heather Bailey will be available to purchase in November through Amazon.com.
There are swarms of PL fans waiting for each new edition to be
available, so if you are interested, follow Becky's blog for updates and
be prepared to shop the day the collection goes live.
So, go have a look at Becky's announcement post.
She has way more preview photos posted over there than I do. Leave a
comment. And read up on how Project Life works. There's even a cute
little cartoon you can watch on her home page.
(Fabric-folk, you realize these images sneaky-preview some new designs for you too, right?)
ohhhhhhhhhh and ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
So beautiful! Gorgeous work Heather xxx
I’ll be patiently waiting for the pretty fabric ;o)
Beautiful! I’ve never used a Project Life album, but they look like they have entirely simplified the whole scrapbooking idea! Love that! And all the boxes and files of pictures I have waiting to be chronicled I’m sure would too! 🙂
Wouldn’t be upset at all to see these beautiful prints/colors turn up on fabric sometime either! 😉
oooooo this is awesome! just might be the kick i needed to get going on PL. been meaning to start for such a long time now. 🙂
Awesome!–Both the PL and the news of a new fabric line!
Heather, you’re FANTASTIC!! This Olive set is beautiful and wonderfully girly AND graphic. Cannot wait until November!!
I wasn’t going to do Project Life next year because the color schemes just aren’t me… you have changed that! Now it is a must have and I can not wait for some new fabric from you. Nicey Jane is my all time favorite fabric line but your new stuff might just take that spot!
LOVE this design! Absolutely perfect!
Brilliant concept, and your contribution is beautiful.
Congrats on your collection. I will be ordering this for my PL next year! Love the colors and designs. Thanks for making it so lovely.

Those designs are beautiful! love the colors, love the colors together. Amazing work.
my interest has been piqued, I may have to buy a small kit and see if I have the follow through to keep it up, as I love the concept. Thanks for introducing me to a new product/company! And…what a treat to learn she is local, we sure do have some amazing talent here in AZ!
I’m a Project Lifer and super excited for the designs you are adding to the mix!!! I love the colors and the design… and I’m super excited to have found your blog now.
All you ladies are so inspiring. 🙂
I’ve never heard of project life, but I haven’t done any real journaling (other than blogging) since high school. This would be a lot easier than what I was doing before.
ohhhh I’m a huge follower of Becky and the project life products. I just wanted to stop by and let you know you did an amazing job!! we are so happy to see that you came on board and joined the Project Life team. You mentioned, if they don’t know about project life and are interested in learning more stop by and follow becky’s blog. She updates as things go live, and from a girl who watched the phenomenon of pl bloom…. you’ll want to keep tabs as things go live!! Its a short lived release 😉 great job again!!
Looks great, love the colors and patterns! 🙂

I’m an avid project lifer, and I just ADORE your new collection! Beautiful designs Heather!!! I especially love the sneak where the design flows from one card to the next to make one bigger design – so cool!
