Hi everyone and Happy Friday! It sure is a TGIF for me. I have been having a week that's for sure so hopefully the weekend will bring good health and cheer for all!
Today I thought I would share with you a look back at my very first pocket scrapbook. I bought my very first kit. I loved that the one kit had I needed for the entire year, plus extras I'm still using and for a very reasonable price. Thus began Project 365 in December 2008. My goal was to take a photo every single day for the year and put them in the album.
And that is exactly what I did that year. Some days just have the photo and nothing else, but most of the days I did manage to journal something about the photos.
Then I took a little break, ok it was a few year break, but now I'm determined to get photos in albums again. So this year I've started again with a goal of doing at least two pages of photos in my album along with 12 by 12 pages.
This is the album I've chosen. Actually I purchased the album a few years ago (2011) while shopping with some friends at Hobby Lobby but life got in the way and I didn't do more then a few pages over the past few years. So I decided just to continue with this album. Just adding and making it mine. Here is the page I'm working on now.
As you can see I'm adding fun stuff into my album. Cards and letters from friends and pages of photos I just like. And PenPal photos and letter. Makes for a fun look back:)
So that's my history of pocket paging.
Do you pocket page?

ReplyDeleteSo fun! I wish I could find the original P365 kit, it looks so fun =)
ReplyDeleteLove the travel through time! So awesome that you've stuck with it. :)
ReplyDeletecongrats on diving back in!!
ReplyDeletelove this! I enjoyed that kit!
ReplyDeleteLove it!! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on getting back into pocket scrapping. I do a weekly spread, but I'm not sure I could do a pic per day. I don't always remember to take a pic :) Have you seen the Basic Grey Attach Me stickers? They're great for adding cards and other papers to your album.
ReplyDeleteI started the same way! Great job with your albums.
ReplyDeleteSo awesome to be on the same team as you! What a cool look back in the past! Its like a time machine to 2008??!! I'm a new follower :)
ReplyDeleteVery cool project! I have often thought about doing the picture a day thing for a year. So much changes in a year. Years later looking back it would be fun to see it day by day in album.
ReplyDeleteThis looks interesting. I'll check out the blog when I have more time to sit. I promise it will be soon.
ReplyDeletepocket pages . sounds interesting. maybe it will help me scrap all the pics i already have.
ReplyDeleteThat looks like a great way to scrap! I will have to look into this. Thanks for sharing! :)
ReplyDeleteYour pages are great Joyce! I still haven't caught on to this new style of doing things....I'll be old fashioned forever I guess :-)
ReplyDeleteIs this like Project Life? I have a couple friends who use that method for scrapping. I like to do mine the old fashioned way, just wish I could get more time to work on it.
ReplyDeleteI am not into the pocket page scrapbooking. I am also terrible at journalling but you are so good at to
ReplyDeleteNice albums. I haven't done pocket pages, not even sure I know what they are. I see more research in my future.I need something to get me back into doing pages. TFS
ReplyDeleteHopping by to say hello :-)
ReplyDeleteI spy me in your pics!!! heheh
ReplyDeleteWelcome back to Project 365 :)
OH I am with you so many years of pictures to get into albums... I am trying to just find a way to simplify the process but that means missing the fun I di like adding fun things in... great Ideas I think I need to do some 3 ring albums, so I can get away from the consectutive way I have done in the past I am ready to just grab pics and have fun !
ReplyDeleteLovely work. I haven't tried pocket pages yet, but I am thinking about it.
