Scrapbooking. Am I the only one that feels pressure to document my family's life through scrapbooks? I started young. I used colored paper, scissors, and glue to organize the photos my mom took of me. I loved it. I had a blast being creative and making each page look special. It was so time consuming, and messy though. Oh, the mess. Scraps of paper everywhere and sticky fingers from the glue sticks. As a mom, I feel it is my duty to keep track of my family's comings and goings. That is partially what this blog is for, but I want something more concrete. Something I can hold in my hands.
The heavens shined down on me the day I discovered Project Life. I had heard of it many times from friends, but I never looked into it. It seemed like a good idea, printing out your pictures, buying their filler cards, and stuffing them all in a page protector. The problem was it still took time, and it felt like a nightmare to print off all the photos off my phone. The magic was when I discovered the Project Life app. Could I really create all of my scrapbook pages on my phone? Yes, yes I could.
On the app you can pick from different layouts, add the photos from your phone, and dress it up with filler cards and text. You can also order the prints directly from your phone as well, or you can export the image and order the prints from somewhere else. If you order the prints directly from Project Life it will cost you $1.99 for each 12x12 print and a flat rate of $5 for shipping. I was curious on the print quality if I ordered through Project Life. I was pleasantly surprised. I received my prints within a week, and they were all printed on high quality photo paper. I have dubbed this my new form of scrapbooking. I love the ease without having to take away the quality or look of the product. Check out my post on how to use Project Life.
I am in no way affiliated with Project Life. I simply love the product and wanted to share it with others.
