Another month, another treasured album!
When I started this project in January, I wasn't really sure if I would make it all year. It's not a "difficult" project per se, but it does take time and effort to print, organize, document, etc. Sadly, memory keeping is an easy to project to move down your ever growing to-do list, right? Laundry, activities, homework all seem to take center stage. But I'm committed and really determined to finish up this year strong. Looking back through my books, I've noticed that the more recent books have become all about the words and photos (which I'm totally ok with). The beginning of the year includes more creative ideas and processes (like vellum photos, pockets, creative journaling).
I don't think there is a "right or wrong" when it comes to memory keeping. I find, for me, that I like to print my photos and get them into place and then go from there with journaling and extras. Usually, by the time I've printed, I'm already running out of steam so adding in lots of extras hasn't been in the cards the last few months!
This month, I went with a 4x6 sized album that I had in my stash. Using up my supplies has been awesome. I've used more products, printed more photos and written more words this year than in years past with the 12x12 Project Life size.
And here you can see a little walk through of my album! Hope you enjoy it!!
A beautiful album! I would like to know how you go about printing your journaling onto the 4x6 cards? I heard you say that you type it on your computer. I just love the look of it!
