PL layout question - xtra pages
 

Finally diving into PL this year. :thumbup: My question is - what do you do for extra events you did throughout the week that have a ton of photos? Let's say a Birthday Party? Do you do your spread for the week and then a spread for the special event?

Just curious. And if you can link me to examples, that would rock.
TIA.

I've done it a few different ways. Sometimes I do a PL spread for the rest of the week and a second for the special event. Sometimes I do a traditional 12x12 layout for the best photos and put a few others into our weekly spread. (Usually that means being ruthless about cutting photos and it's hard at the time, but I don't miss the ones I didn't use later.) Other times I'll decide to do 3 or 4 pages for the week (with 1 or 2 being mostly but not exclusively the special event). Some people do inserts within their week (the page sizes less than 12x12), but I don't use those.

I don't do extra. I leave that for regular scraping.

I'll do an extra 2 page spread for the week (or sometimes, if it's like a vacation that has a lot of photos, I'll add on several 2 page spreads). Those extras tend to be mostly just photos -- fewer embellishments than my regular PL pages.

I'll do an insert page back and front and put in the middle of the week for big events like graduations.

Like it! Visually I can see this.

Thank you everyone. ♥

I'll do a themed page for a special event. I don't really worry to much about the whole thing. If I only have one page for a week, I only have one page. If I have 3 pages, that's OK too. I just fit in the extra pages where I have room. I don't date anything so I don't stress about it.
