Woah! I'm really digging the template/theme of this blog. It's simple, yet effective. A lot of times it's very difficult to get that "perfect balance" between usability and visual appearance. I must say you have done a great job with this. Also, the blog loads super fast for me on Chrome. Outstanding Blog! To access additional specifics check out my internet page on Kelly

Would love to see Becky’s view of using DIGITAL PL!!! Any update on the comments posted on your blog under:

{ digital update }

I will have an entirely separate blog post about the Shutterfly option, which I mentioned is the product I’ll personally be using to document our 2012. Stay tuned.

Thanks!

I created a location based scrapbook application for the iphone. You can actually scrapbook photos, video, and voice memos by location. Check out iCaptureIT, it’s only a dollar. :}

Juli:

I am just starting Project Life (Waiting for the Photo Pocket Design A to be back in stock). I do not have a photo printer at home. How are you printing your photos at Walmart in odd sizes? They do not offer that many choices for photo sizes and I am finding they do not fit in the Project life photo pockets (if you wanted to attach one to a journalilng card). I could cut the photos, but most of the time with it being a 4 X 6 it cuts off important parts of the photo or the photo is too big. Is anyone else having this problem? Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Stevie

I did the photo-a-day Project Life this past year and loved it. I’m thinking I would like to do a more weekly approach like you mentioned, but I’m struggling with what that “looks” like. I’m sure if I dive in I’ll figure it out, but just trying to get some ideas and inspiration for the weekly approach. I suppose it means filling several pockets with pics from one day and none from others – if that’s what you want to do – and some weeks having a picture for every day? Thanks for any help!!

Hi Becky,

I feel like I have been living under a rock! I had not heard about your product until now. I have been looking into buying a full kit but can’t find it anywhere. Do you sell everything in a boxed kit like you did in 2010? I can’t wait to start!
I only wish that I had found this sooner so I could have documented my daughter’s first year. She will be one jan 23.

Thanks!
Michelle

I’m hoping to see you address concerns about your Shutterfly product soon since we are now nearly a week into the new year, and it doesn’t feel good to already be behind.

Have you considered offering an 8.5×11 digital template similar to the Ziblio format? That would allow me to proceed!

Thanks for your consideration.

Hi Pat
I develop my photos weekly at my local Walmart. There are some weeks I don’t get there so then I might have two weeks worth of photos to develop. This works for me. I just purchased a new printer for my home that can print photos. I want the option to be able to print some photos at home, too. We’ll see how that goes. Hope that helps!

I don’t own a photo printer, so I’ll be ordering prints periodically. I’d be interested in knowing how others handle this? How often do they order, do they use a local printer like Walgreens or wait for shipments through the mail…?

Thanks! I used the cards in PL and adhered the photos to those, but they just don’t seem to stay put, especially the larger photos/cards. It’s the entire photo/card that slips out. I didn’t think of transparencies. That’s an idea.

I have cut 4×6 pieces of paper and slipped them behind smaller photos. This seems to help.

I just wanted to say THANK YOU for dividing up all the Project Life supplies this year. I’ve been a HUGE fan of yours since your Creating Keepsakes days and have always appreciated your simple, yet beautiful approach to scrapbooking. I miss your column terribly but was thrilled to find your blog last summer and finally purchased some Project Life supplies (binders, photo pockets, and envelopes) just after Thanksgiving. Getting to purchase what I need and not what I don’t need is a big plus! While my personal albums (traditional scrapbooking) are fairly up-to-date, my 3 children’s albums (of which I haven’t even started on the younger 2…the oldest just has a few pages) have always been a “need to do but don’t have the time” kind of thing. Project Life is the answer to that! Now I am starting to get their books together and it feels great I didn’t buy the inserts but Project Life has been a great way to use up all my scrap paper. It’s been so simple to just cut a 4×6 of some scrap I have and put it in there. The envelope pages are perfect for holding all those school things I’ve been saving over the years. I am very excited that you will be stocking more insert G pages. Didn’t buy those when I purchase my earlier stuff. However, it will even be super handy for my traditional scrapbook. We took a trip to Grand Canyon last summer and I took sooooooo many amazing pictures (how can you not). I was stressed as to how I could showcase more photos but keep it to a 2 page lay-out. Then it hit me…..Project Life! I am now planning to do a 2 page traditional lay-out in my scrapbook and use the smaller insert G pages to go in between the 2 traditional pages to hold extra photos. So I’ll be stalking your blog faithfully for when more arrive at Amazon. Thank you Becky for helping out this very busy mom, wife and business owner!! Project Life really is a lifesaver.
