2009 ~~ Project 365 Progress

[ilovemickeymost]

just sent off jan/feb to shutterfly since they were offering a free 8x8 book. should be interesting to see how it turns out. If it looks cute, guess that's the way I'll go. maggie

Let us know how it looks.

 

[ilovemickeymost]

Its here, Its Here, Its here!!!!!! My 365 kit came today. I have all the page protectors in & day of cards. My baby kit was also delivered. WOW its a good day for me. I'm in scrapbook overload & lovin' it. Now got to get my pics printed & journaling done.

my shutterfly book came today, I really like it. the pages all match up nicely and I even finally figured out how to get the darn picture on the cover! I think that I will use the 8x8 book again for the rest of the year. 2 month increments is very manageable.

Maggie, I'm glad to know you like the shutterfly book. I had that free code, and I forgot to do it! Maybe next time!!

I'm caught up again through 3/14, so I'm pretty happy with that. Is anyone else having trouble believing it's MARCH?? And not just that, but halfway through MARCH?!?!

 

[nicurn]

so with ya on that! march really has just flown by! still caught up though! maggie

Progress to date:

All photos since Jan 1 ordered and labeled and organized.

Journaling through Jan done

Today I will journal to date and get the stuff in the album


I had 2 dates without good photos. I wanted to share my idea no how to solve the problem -- my sister doesn't live close by - -I told her about the project and asked her to send me a photo of her kids/family and 2-3 sentences.

Update: I have all the photos now and I just finished up the journaling. Time to put it altogether. Hopefully I'll get it done tonight.

 

[123SA]

Finished! Except for the 8th journal spot. I will look for an extra photo to use before just filling in with those extra cards.

Now that I am up to date, I can see that I would like to start thinking about changing things up a bit. I definitely need to plan weeks of "all about me" for each family member. I also need to get the others to do a few more journaling spots. Last, I'd like to think about changing up the pages -- use some of the ideas that came with the project and also some of the ones posted on the KOTM blog.

 

[ilovemickeymost]

keep up the good work.

Hey, I didn't realize people were doing Project 365 here on the DIS boards. I've been doing it, too, but scrapping it digitally. Here are some of my weekly pages, all done with the Life 365 collection at www.weedsandwildflowersdesign.com

HLDisney - Welcome to our thread. There is also a thread posted daily for people doing 365 to post what they took their pics of for that day. You'll just have to go to the scrapbook section & find it. I went to the website you listed & LOVE a ton of the stuff there. Also, took a peek at the gallery & saw how everyone is doing their 365. Very neat & creative. I really like the "entire month on one page" idea. I would never be able to do it b/c I love to write.

FYI, In case you haven't found it yet either: There are a monthly & also a yearly page count threads on here. You just go post how many pages you've completed & they keep track. Digital counts the same as paper. Whoever does the most for the month gets to host the following month. Its a lot of fun & keeps me way motivated. At least you'll know you'll have 104 for sure for the year doing 365.

As you can see from my posts, I'm slowly catching up on the pages themselves, but sometimes I've forgotten to take pictures, and am trying to fill in the gaps now. I've been pretty good tho, and it hasn't been too hard to fill in.

I have my list of photos...things got crazy this past week and I didn't have time to catch up...but I have a free week from work so I will be catching up this week!!!

 

[123SA]

I am completely up to date through May 31. 4x6 photos are current through yesterday, I just have a few journal cards and the 8th little spot to deal with for June.

This has been a great project. Anyone know if Becky Higgins intends to have a new kit for next year?

 

[Disneyland_emily]

So for all of you that started Jan 1- you are technically 1/2 way through the year!

Crazy thought!

-em

 

[PrincessNancy96]

I'm current as of today.. I have about 5 photos being printed as we speak but they'll be in the book tonight... But I am current!!!!! Yeah!!!

Now, I need to come up with a good opening title page...since I'm doing traditional scrapping I haven't found anything that just says "that's it!"

 

[BernardandMissBianca]

current as of the day before we left for Kansas. Need to print the next round, just got a code from Walgreens today.
