Default Printing single pages?

Does anyone even print their pages and do sheet protectors anymore? I really prefer that but haven't printed in a few years. I saw that scrapbookpictures.com shut down and I'll probably use Persnickety, but are there any other good ones to choose from anymore?

99% of my pages are slipped into sheet protectors... I don't scrap in order, so I can't print them all in one book. I use Persnickety almost exclusively... Love the quality!! I have used other sites but end up having major problems using their software.

I'm the same too - but I print at home for the most part.

What size do you ladies print, and where do you buy your albums/sheet protectors? I think I'd love to print 10x10, but is that even an option as far as albums go?

I used Persnickity for the first time with my Project Life pages for last year. It was my first time using them. I used to use scrapbookpictures.com. I was really happy with the quality from Persnickity and I printed them out in 12 x 12 for the first time! I don't think I'll be going back to 8 x 8, but will continue to print 12 x 12 from Persnickity and put them in page protectors.

I used Persnickety for the first time at their Digi-scrapbooking day sale and had ALOT printed. They were all amazing. I honestly think they looked better printed then they do on my computer. I love looking through my books and like that I can add pages as well when I print indiviual pages. I bought a book at shutterfly I think and it was so confusing and some of my pages lost edges while others were unaffected so I wont be using them again.

I print 8x8. 12x12 is just soo HUGE to me, it's kind of overwhelming. But, that's just personal preference. I just found these binders, and I love them!

http://www.ohmycrafts.com/doodle-bug...ook-Album.aspx

They sell 8x8 and 12x12 albums. I don't think I've ever seen 10x10 albums, but that doesn't mean they don't exist.

This is what I've been using: http://americancrafts.com/subcategory.php?id=21&sub=73, they're similar to the ones Lydia posted except nothing on the spine. I do 12x12.

I print 8x8... it's easier for my kiddo to look at them.

I've been using Making Memories D-Ring binders and protectors - but it's getting harder and harder to find them... so will be switching to what Lydia has linked.

oh wow I hadn't realized they shut down! Doug was always so good to me and I loved everything I had printed there. I've done hundreds of layouts through them. They were a local Portland company and I loved to use them to support the local industry. The times have been really tough in this area, and I'm sorry to hear he had to shut down.

Thanks for the link. I had been thinking about switching from books to pages and this was too easy! Ordered 2 books and extra refills. Found a 10% off discount coupon code(NEW10) to go with it!

I've been using postbound albums for years, and asked for one of these for Christmas. My plan is to mix my digital pages with some Project Life stuff, and I am hoping I will love these binders, too!

I'm another who doesn't scrap in order - so single pages all the way for me (although I'd like to try to do a book someday too, just to compare!)! And I've always LOVED the quality of Persnickety!

I print 12x12 from Persnickety. I don't scrap in order but I want to be able to put my pages in order when the year is finished, so a bound album doesn't work for me. Not to mention how paranoid I'd be about my kids looking through a bound album-pages would get ripped or ruined for sure.

When I first switched from 8.5x11 printed at home to 12x12 from a printer, what I really wanted was 10x10. I looked everywhere for 10x10 albums and page protectors before giving up. It was available in bound books but not page-protector albums. After printing a set of test pages (one at 8x8 and one at 12x12) I realized that 12x12 didn't seem nearly as big as I expected it to. Now I love 12x12.

I actually have a printer at home and I print as I go (as long as I don't run out of ink or paper). I don't do the books.

I also print with Persnickety. I love their quality and their customer service is outstanding. I print 12x12 and slip them into 3 ring binders and page protectors. It's just easier that way since I don't scrap chronologically.

Thanks for the info girls! I think I'll send out a couple pages to compare 8x8 and 12x12 before making the jump. Thanks for the link to the books, Lydia!

I love those albums Lisa posted too - I have a few others but those are by far my favorite - the pages just move so easily!

Green Pixel Printing is my printer. (in Canada) Or PolkaDot Potato in the USA
