  • Book of Me 2025

    This year for our Book of Me at the Awesome Ladies Project, we’re creating pages each month inspired by a female artist. During the lessons we’re learning about their creative themes and translating them into our own storytelling styles thanks to video tutorials, creative prompts, and project inspiration.

    For my Book, I’m doing digital in Canva that I’ll print out when finished and add to my previous 6×8 Book of Me album. I’ve decided to go with the co titles of “A Year of amazing female artist inspiration” and “A year of self portraits”. Each month my page will include a photo of the featured artist, a quote by the artist, some of their art as well as using some of the creative prompts for the month. Then I’m adding a selfie.

    I’m thinking of making it more interactive by making my selfie a tip-in so I can add some info about me unerneath. Not 100% sure as yet.

    I’ve used some of the Planners Anonymous Creative Kits for elements on my pages as well as elements from Canva. Images of the artists and their work was sourced from a Google search

  • What’s going on over at the Awesome Ladies

    So many exciting things happening this year over at the ALP (Awesome Ladies Project)

    Book of me is back again this year and sounds like it is going to be an artistic journey

    This year’s Book of Me project is all about drawing inspiration from powerful female artists—women who have used their creativity to tell their own stories, push boundaries, and leave a lasting impact.

    We’ll explore a new artist each month, learning from their techniques, styles, and creative philosophies, and then use that inspiration to tell our own stories. No art skills required—just a willingness to experiment, play, and tell your story.

    You can sign up over here. OR join the Feminist Scrapbook School and get the Book of Me project as part of your membership.

  • Awesome Ladies Book of Me 2024

    I love my Books of Me. I get to tell my stories not just my stories as part of a family, as a mum etc etc.

    This year I’m trying a different format – it’s a bound mini book I bought as part of a journaling set (I only wanted the washi and all the goodies, the book was a bonus).

    After taking part in the Book of Me Bootcamp I’ve managed to get my theme picked, cover and name pages done, as well as a couple of extra bits from bootcamp.

    The theme I’m going with for this book is vintage and steam-punk. I’m a bit of a vintage style bender at the moment and I’m loving it.

    The Awesome Ladies Project Feminist Scrapbook School

    We’ve just started into our Spring semester and if you join the Feminist Scrapbook School you can still work through Semester Orientation.

    Our first class of the year is this weekend and it’s Book of Me Bootcamp.

    Spring 2024 Book of Me Bootcamp

    Love this event and it always gets me excited and motivated for the year ahead.
    When you join you’ll get immediate access to 15 videos which will help you create your own Book of Me.
    On Saturday & Sunday there will be a bunch of live events including making your cover page, overcoming roadblocks (this one is always super helpful – creating pages about yourself can be difficult), your album setup for 2024, creating interactive pages and setting up for success.

    I’ve already picked my album for 2024 but I’ll share about that after the weekend.

    Hope to see you at this awesome event.
