thanks!!
Project life is weekly or monthly scrapbook documenting, usually done pocket style. Becky Higgins created it, and it came out of the P365 concept. Early on it was meant to be a system of scrapping those daily photos quickly. The basic idea was that you'd have a title card with the week number, 7 4x6 photos (one for each day of the week), and a series of 3x4 journaling and decorative cards to round out the layouts.

Although there may be some people still using PL for P365, most people document more fluidly now, with multiple photos (or pages!) for some days and nothing for others. There are also a ton of different page layouts with a wider variety of photo sizes. Technically "Project Life" refers to using Becky Higgins's products by the same name, but most of us have adopted the name for our long term projects regardless of who designed the materials we use. There's a section of the gallery devoted to Project Life-type layouts.
