Lickity Slip 365
Posted in Challenges, Scrapbooking on 01/03/2009 04:42 pm by Willow Tree CraftsAnyone doing Project 365? The idea is that you take a photo every day of the year. It seems like a great time to start.
Becky Higgins is trying it this year, and has (or had) a kit by Creating Keepsakes to go with it.
I love the idea, and know that there is no way I’ll get chance to do a layout each day with my photo, but I like the idea of a weekly layout with 7 pictures. I’m looking at sketches for 7 photos, (Becky Higgins to the rescue again with the Best of Becky Higgins Sketches) and I’d like to just use the same format each week. I can manage a layout a week can’t I?
At the moment I think I’ll see how January goes. So far I’ve got photos of the little man for Jan 1st and 2nd, so I need to get one tonight when I get home, and hopefully if I can get through January the habit will be formed and I’ll make it through the year.
It also means I’m not making any firm decisions about what album to use before then either. I love the American Crafts albums as always, perhaps even an 8.5×11 and try digital layouts. With a couple of templates I could probably whip up pages in no time, of course the couple of templates will probably take me a week to do, and its just not as much fun for me.
Another option is the Bazzill Lickity Split Albums. Lickety Slip Albums let you scrapbook as much as you want and store as many photos as you want. You can use either 12×12 page protectors, or the divided Lickity Split Page Protectors, so I could just drop photos in, or do a full layout. Choose how you want the photo sleeves arranged in this easy to use D-ring binder.
hmmmmm, decisions decisions.
Let us know what you’re doing!
Scrapathon Sunday Evening Challenge
Posted in Challenges, Scrapathon on 07/27/2008 08:00 pm by Willow Tree CraftsFor a bit of fun…Use something from your handbag on your layout. This could be some memorabilia, a reciept, or use something to stamp with. You could just use a pen that you keep in there, or an emery board for sanding something…
