is a tradition here - the kids love taking them to school to share with the class during their last week Day 20/ I've been really enjoying the old black and white holidays films this year.

I've been playing around with various Project Life options for this year since about October and this at a time rather than a left and a right page each week #lazy). I always find it much easier to make a plan and work on templates once the year has started and I have book (this is the set I used this week and this for journaling). Same sized spots to fill every week but the digital flexibility to fit with what I have.

After many years of digital December Daily (and digital scrapbooking in general), I'm in the mood for have quite a lot of physical scrapbooking things stashed away in my drawer - leftovers from a past Week I want to keep this year's project really simple - a photo and a journal card or patterned paper for We are breaking tradition this year - combining Christmas with some family friends and spending the day Once this year's December Daily Digitals are available, I'll do a video and post about turning digital

By about September/October I start to lose steam in my year-long projects. since 2010 and around this time of year I start to look ahead at how to change things up for next year If I am required to be too creative week after week or month after month then I'm going to have problems A year is a long time to work on something no matter how simple or complex you make it. The goal is to print an 8x10 photobook at the end of the year so I would make a 16x10 spread every week

I recently wrote about my plans for this years album (HERE) and so far I'm happy with the direction I'm The garland is also from In A Creative Bubble, I had this journal card set from last year (HERE). I wanted to focus on my journaling this year so I'm making the facing spread each day word focused. I took this photo in the city earlier in the week and used a Paislee Press circle stamp and the mistletoe My printer is an Epson Expression Photo XP-8500, a few years old now.

This is a great set if you want to simplify your yearly album and concentrate on the photographs.

First, I have Project Life (a post about this year's set up is HERE and you can see my pages HERE). I have done a monthly format for Project Life the last few years and going back to weekly has given this For the last two years I have built a small, digital, personal book to keep all of my lists, favourites Last year when I went back to a more family-oriented project (HERE) I missed that little side project again, first as a 4x6 paper mini with binder rings, then repurposed into a 5x8 Blurb book (HERE) This year

This year I am simplifying this project way down and making a little 4x4 handmade album (here is a post These are the ones I've added to my collection this year: The December Daily Mini Kit by Paislee Press Day 02/ So happy to find this Harry Potter ornament in the tree stash - forgot I bought it last year. Day 04/ Filling our pool back up (Circle element: Summer Vibes Elements by Paislee Press) Day 05/ Guitar

I've always added little stories from my childhood & younger days to my scrapbooks, but this year I really I want to make it easy to open up and just add a story or two each week. I don't plan to do this in a set time-frame, it might take a year. Or two. It doesn't matter. She suggests making a timeline and I've found that really helpful to just get a handle on what year things

Day 22/ I didn't have a daily photo so I used a photo of our living room that I took earlier in the month

Happy New Year folks! I hope 2020 treated you well (ha, joke, it sucked). I am not doing any kind of Project Life/year long project this year. I'm just going to make pages without a definite end-game this year. My One Little Word this year is DARE. I need a word that will challenge me this year, not a word I'm wishing for because I am tired and seeking

I usually have some kind of plan for scrapbooking when the new year rolls around. Not this year. A few weeks in and I still had no clue about what kind of year-long project I wanted to do (or if I wanted family-oriented chronological book that will focus on the photos but also have a weekly recap about our
