Hi friends! Any project lifers out there? I've been using project life for several years. I completed 2009 & 2010 as a catch up project. 2013 was done in the "traditional" weekly style. I didn't really care for the weekly set up. It was turning out to be more stressful than fun. So, for 2014 I made two changes - I'm using a 6x8 album and I only make pages every month or so. Sometimes I just have 1 page, sometimes more. I do what I want to do and that's that. I enjoy working that way. And, of course, sometimes I don't order prints for several months at a time, but that's ok too.
Recently Becky Higgins came up with a game changer. A project life app! I looooooove it. I'm so excited to start 2015 ... I plan on going back to a weekly format. You can literally put together a page in minutes. It's SO easy! If you haven't checked it out yet (and you have an iPhone) RUN to the app store. It's the best $2.99 I ever spent! The plan is to do a weekly spread - 1 ... 2 ... however many pages I need for that week. I'm not sure if I'm going to print the pages and put them in a 12x12 album or ship them off to be printed in a book somewhere. I'll have to figure that out later.
Another fun thing ... you can make a collages like the one I made of our selfie at the beach in February. And even more fun - you can save it in your photo album and use it as a screen saver.
PS - 2011 & 2012 pictures are still on the flash drive. I have the albums and cards ... all I have to do is print out the pictures and put the albums together. No big deal, right!?

OK, so first I love the idea of a 6x8 book. Second I can't wait for the app to come out on Android!!!! I'm sure I'll have tons of questions for you!!
ReplyDeleteI second what Becky said.....I am not so patiently waiting for the Android app. I am thinking that it may be what finally gets me actually doing PL instead of admiring everybody else's.
