I haven’t read through all the comments so I apologize if this is a duplicate request… but I’d LOVE to see page protectors for the 3×5 pictures… I have a million pictures in that size and they sit sadly in a box

Love everything you do!!

I’d also love 3.5 X 5 – it was THE size to have in the 80s and 90s. It would be great to not have to mount them all on 4×6 paper first!

How about blank project life 3×4 and 4×6 to print on?

I know this has probably been asked and answered many times but I feel like I keep wanting to post it and I never do. I love scrapbooking and photography and I want to start this project but it is April. I know it doesn’t really matter when you start, I just think that my January to present pages will be sparse and since I’m not in a routine, it might take a while to get into my groove of the project. Do you have any advice for a Project Life virgin who is desperately behind??

Quick question about your new baby products. I assume you will have a girl set and a boy set. Will you have multiple girl and boy sets for those of us with multiple same sex children?

I started in paper and went totally nutso buying stuff for years. Then I went digi but kept up with my stamping so I still used (and bought) paper supplies. But for the last couple of years I stopped it all, no paper, stamping or digi scrapping. PL came into my life at the right time, I was starting to feel the scrap itch but wasn’t sure what to do. I eagerly bought a signature album and a selection of plastics but (as much as I wanted to) I didn’t buy a core kit. For me PL was going to get me to FINALLY use that stash. And it has, for the most part. I do use a ton of the grid cards and I’ve found some new supplies to buy (washi tape, smash books, etc.) but if I had bought a core kit I wouldn’t have dug into my stash at all.

I’ve also pared down my existing stash. I’ve given my paper scrap kits to friends who still paper scrap. I’ve passed on other papers, markers & stickers to my DD. AND I’ve sold a ton of other items, tools, stamps, inks, embellishments, etc. By doing that I don’t feel guilty about spending money on this new PL system. I don’t let myself get bogged down by feeling bad about all the money I spent in the past. Past is past. I’ve helped out some scrappy friends, made my DD happy and earned back a little money to pay for my PL. It’s a win-win!

Hi Becky, I am really intrigued by PL. I am a 65 year old grandma taking care of my 91 year old mother. While the grandkids make for really good PL material, I only see them every couple of weeks. I am concerned about life at home with someone who needs 24/7 care. I feel my days are very repetitive and often very sad. How will these days fit in a PL album? I hesitate to do PL at this time because of this. Please share your thoughts. Thank you.

Yes please! A4 is standard in Denmark too – probably so in rest of Europe. It would be so great.
Ohh P L E A S E – please!

I love your products and your blog! Just wanted to mention that I have come up with a new (for me) use for your tabbed dividers: I will be using them to divide my 3 ring binder that I store recipes I’ve found online and printed. Just ordered 3 sets so I can use them in my scrapbooks too.

I love the new pages. Would also love to see 3.5 X 5, which seemed to be the main size for pics in the 70s & 80s and maybe into the 90s. That’s the era of my girls’ childhoods.

I have the same situation with lots of horizontal and vertical photos. I tried using design G with some horizontal and some vertical but that got difficult to work out especially because then you have to do the next layout like that, so I just stick the vertical ones in horizontally. It’s not perfect but it works.

Hi Becky, thanks for sharing! Your asked for feedback on sizes, would you please consider offering more in 8.5×11 and 8×8? Especially the dividers and pocket pages.

Thanks and am enjoying the project life this year! (using a 4×6 photo album and your clementine series.)

Hi Becky, I am very excited about the prospect of your school/kids supplies coming out. And this may be jumping the gun a little, but for my own planning, I’m wondering if they will be available digitally as well at some point. I’m using the digital version for my PL and I LOVE it. I’d like to continue with that system for my kids’ albums.

Thanks so much for all you do to make documenting life doable!

I just wanted to give my two cents on the Lady that asked about what you do for special times (Christmas, vacations, ect)
I do the regular PL but on those special occasions I either add extra page protectors or I add in a traditional scrapbook page. Hope this helps.

Great post Becky, and I love all the new page protectors coming out. I would really love it though, if you could bring out some divided 8.5×11 protectors and envelope pages in this size as well – then I could easily slot them in my existing/traditional albums, but mix all the pages up a bit with the PL style.

I could have written this request myself. Yes please to A4 size
