Do you do it? Yes, I started the last week of September
And do you keep up? I'm behind, but I have all the pics and the stuff I need I just have to organize and print.
2. Do you have a Core Kit from Becky Higgins or are you using a digi kit that is focused on P365/ P52 or are you doing it on your own with elements and papers and such? Digi, hybrid, or traditional paper?
I use a We R Memory Makers album (black leather), Becky Higgins A page protectors. I mostly make my inserts that are decorative with digital supplies and then print on paper and cut. I do the weekly date in the upper left like Ali Edwards does - I just pick a kit for the week and use that for everything. Sometimes I label my pics and add writing on them and sometimes not. I try to use as many pics as possible and then use a folding file organizer to keep my receipts and other stuff from each week. I just put a piece of paper in with the week dates and then slip everything I might possibly use from that week into the same section. Then when I do sit down I have what I need.
Before we started camping/traveling every weekend I would just sit down on Sunday morning and organize what I needed to print for the week before. I have a digital template I made that makes it easy to crop the pics and other add ins. It took me an hour tops a week to put it all together.
I found using a journal or little notebook to record what happens or things I don't want to forget. Then I slip the paper into the file folder organizer thing so I have it when I am ready to create. I'm loving the proces and actually feel like I'm documenting life. The kids already know I want every receipt and that I take pics of just about everything in a week. Slow pic weeks get more digitaly designed inserts like our schedule for the week, books we are reading, documenting a conversation or something funny someone said, shopping lists, cute stories...etc.
Once you get your own method I think you are going to love Project Life! I hope the SSD designers will be offering lots of great kits with fun elements to use for next year.
