I was reorganizing a bookshelf near my kitchen that I primarily use for cookbooks, when I found this little scrapbook…
I forgot that I made this at a workshop last year. So I’m glad I took some photos at Christmas. I can now have pictures printed and tape them down. I haven’t done that in a long time!
I made a two-page spread for this week. I love it when I can make two page spreads. I feel like I have so much more room. Sadly, to fill the album that I’m using, I have to make more one page spreads. But oh well. Once again, I used Creative Memories’ Delight products.

This is the first page in my new Project 365 Album that will span for the second half of the year. I worked on this page for hours. I restarted it several times, trying to figure out what paper pack and what theme I want to use for the these pages. I decided on the Delight series by Creative Memories. It’s very girly and light. I like the brighter colors. I hope I like using it.

Since I finished book one of my Project 365 2009 album project I decided to get some of the pages printed. I get them printed at Costco, which is pretty reasonable at $2.99 a print, but I’m not thrilled with the result. The pages come out a bit darker than I would prefer. I’m not sure if they are using color correction on these kinds of prints, so next time I’m going to ask. Actually, that’s not quite true. Next time I’m going to go through this Internet service that prints 12x12s for $1.99. They market toward scrapbookers. An extra dollar a print saves a lot of money, so I’m hoping that I like the quality. I’ll report back when I find out.
Two of my favorite pages from the first album.
Woo-hoo! I’ve finished my last page for my Project 365 Album (Part 1). This means that for my next album I can use a different paper pack. The Earthy Power Palette by Creative Memories served me really well for the the past six months. Overall I made 32 pages. So tomorrow I’ll go get the 12x12s printed at Costco and slide them into my Portfolio Max. For this particular page I used the same paper as I did for the very first page of the album.
