Day In The Life 2025™ | Special Guest Elizabeth Alvite

Hi everyone! This is Elizabeth. Today I'm sharing my process of documenting a Day in the Life using the new Day in the Life 2025 digitals.

This project is one of my favorites to document. I love slowing down my day to capture the mundane ordinary moments, step back, document it, then see the true delights from each day.

Year to year I like to flip through these days I document to see what changes there were and what I was focusing on that day. I always think about how different my future ones will look.

Since I work full-time, dedicating a lot of time to any project is out of the picture. I always make projects that not only allow me to be creative but also don’t over complicate the process so I can achieve the style I am aiming for, and at the same time doing the project and having fun with it.

In this project, I am using the following materials:

• Traveler’s notebook - graph paper

• Day in the Life 2025 mini kit - digitals

• Matte transparent sticker paper (I love Avery brand)

• Ink pad and stamp block of choice

• A bold alpha stamp

• Washi tape (I choose 4 styles to repeat on each spread)

Let’s start the project off by selecting our photos and uploading them to our desired editing program - I love Canva!

In this video, I am showing you how I use the Canva app to upload my photos. I make a folder in the Projects tab where I make individual folders by the month and year and upload my photos to each folder.

In this video, I show you how it looks from my perspective editing in Canva. I love to use 4x6” project boards as when I download them to print, I print them on my Epson Picturemate PM-400 and cut down my matte transparent sticker paper (Avery brand) and then cut out each piece individually.

Here you will see me put the project together and a flip thru of the final project. I love using the alpha stamp to emphasize a keyword. In one of my spreads I use the Spanish word ‘bigote’ which means moustache to document one of my favorite products I use each morning.

For the washi, I selected only 4 styles so I can keep repeating it on each spread.

Here you have a visual of my spreads for my project.

I had a lot of fun putting together with minimal effort but maximum creativity. Happiness achieved!
