Happy Project Life 2013!

Just in time for the new year, Michaels finally got these gorgeous faux leather albums in from We R Memory Keepers! I shrieked when I saw them because I have been wanting to start Project Life for a long time and wanted to do it with this binder and the page protectors that are available. I love this colour but there are about 22 colours in all, to choose from. I think my next one will be purple.

You can find out more about Project Life from the lady who started it all: Ali Edwards. I also like what Julie Fei-Fan Balzer has to say about her experiences with Project Life.


I am really excited about the Albums Made Easy 3x4” Card Punch that We R Memory Keepers is bringing out in March (I think). It will be such a joy to use for Project Life, as it will enable me to make perfectly sized journaling inserts out of any paper that I want to use, instantly! How cool is that!? (Check out how the Albums Made Easy system works.)

Project 365 is a great app tha I use for recording a photo a day. Day One is an intriguing looking daily journaling app that I want to investigate a bit more. It was an App of the Week in 2012 and voted one of the best lifestyle apps for 2011. It's $4.99 as opposed to the free version of Project 365, but it looks like it might be worth it! I'll let you know if I get it!

Are you participating in Project Life this year?

December Daily!

I'm jumping on the December Daily bandwagon this year! My boy, Romeo, (or Snowmeo), is celebrating his first December and he posed for this adorable journal card, cover page or whatever, to commemerate the occasion! Please use it, especially if you love Siameses! (He's a blue Lynx point!).

December Daily is a way of recording your daily happenings in December (in this case) in a mini (or not) album that you pre-make (ideally) ahead of December. Many people just make pages up to December 25, but I'm making one for each day in December, so that I can get photos of Boxing Day and New Year's Eve in there, too.

The December Daily tradition was started by scrapbooking maven, Ali Edwards and you can read all about the history of it on Ali's website.

What are you doing to make it a December to Remember?
