After hoping for this day to come for a long time now, its hard to believe that moving day is nearly here! We leave this Friday for Arizona and we couldn’t be more excited! We’re packing up the last few boxes and have some cleaning to do but other than that….we’re SO ready for this!
We’ve got a long road trip ahead of us and I’ll be keeping in touch via instagram and facebook as we travel. I’m excited about the places we’ll see along the way and I’m sure I’ll have lots of photos to document by the time we get to Arizona!
I thought I’d put some of the long hours spent in the car to good use and bring along a few Project Life journaling cards to record details about the trip as they happen. I’m using a mixture of cards from the following Project Life kits:
Kraft Edition
Midnight Edition

I love how easy it is to take these little journaling cards with you anywhere you go! I have them tucked in my Project Life notebook in my purse along with a pencil + my favorite journaling pen. When I’m using my own handwriting I like to record with pencil first – read more here.
I printed out some of the journaling cards using the PL Digi editions available at AC Digitals. I really like working with the digital versions, especially since you can personalize some of the elements like I did with the card below using this fun State Face font.
I look forward to recording the details of our trip with Project Life! Once we get settled in our new home all I need to do is print out the photos and add them, along with the already journaled cards, to our 2013 album!
** IMPORTANT NOTE **
The Simple as That Digital Shop will be closed from May 30th – June 10th. You can still place orders during this time but products won’t be emailed out until after the 10th. Thank you for your understanding.
We’ll see you again in a few weeks! 🙂

Yay for Arizona! That’s where I live. Hope you enjoy the road trip … last time we took one, my 9 year old daughter had a little journal and wrote the most awesome details in it – maybe your kids can do the same. 🙂

Just found your blog via pinterest and LOVE it. I think it is a great idea to bring your journaling cards with you and jot things down as they happen.
Question: Do you only use the DIGITAL versions of the PL cards or do you use the digital files in combination with the actual physical core kits?
Thanks and safe travels!

Excellent idea. I was wondering, when you print out your digital journaling cards what paper do you use? Also, what corner rounder do you use?
