I know that quite a few people have started a 'Project Life' project this month and I have to admit to giving this some serious thought myself but I'm not sure if I can make the commitment. Its something that doesn't fit with my style of scrapbooking but it looks like a great way to document the 'real' side of life rather than the high days and holidays.
If you haven't heard of Project Life, its a year long project by Becky Higgins that can be undertaken with paper and photos or digitally - theres something to suit all styles of scrapbookers. The album kit can be purchased through Amazon here in the UK. You can also purchase the kits digitally through Jessica Sprague or you can complete the project as a photo book through Shutterfly.
Most of the scrapbookers I know tend to have loads of stash of their own and so I was wondering if it would be possible to follow along using stuff you already have and maybe just add in a few bits and bobs. The key thing with this project is its 'pocket' type layout with photos, memorabilia and journaling popped into little pockets in a page protector. I'd have most things but not so many of the journaling cards.
A quick search in the internet reveals there are very kind designers who are offering free downloads to use with project life. I find the cards above here and I'm sure there are loads more!
Even if you don't intend to start a Project Life type of album, these cards are very handy to print off and add to any of the pages, albums or papercrafting you might be working on. Enjoy!
