The regular and original size of the Project Life album is 12x12 inch. Crafters often believe this size is too big because it is hard to handle. It can be hard to fill up the huge format because of time lack or because you don't have that many photos and events going on in your life. On the other hand, 6x8 inch or 6x12 inch scrapbook albums can be found small so you may be searching for a solution. Stop here! You found it! Here comes the awesome 9x12 scrapbook album. It is big enough but still easy to handle. The various Pocket Pages and Page Protectors give you several layout designs. The pocket scrapbooking system makes it easier for busy people to document the most important moments of life.

Pick your album, Pocket Pages and Page Protectors. Note! Chosin only one design of insert can make the documenting process easier and faster as you need less planning ahead.
Plan your pages and spreads. You can do it on a piece of paper drawing a sketch or label the pockets with Post-it Note.
Select your photos, edit them and print them out. You can print your photos at home or order them online. If you are not familiar with photo editing software choose the regular 4x6 inch (10x15 cm photos size).
Add your photos into the pockets. It's time for decoration. Use cut apart scrapbook patterned papers or make your own journal and Project Life cards. Decorate the photos with stickers and other embellishments.
Add journaling. You can print them out with a printer or use a classic typewriter. If you prefer to write your story by hand and make it even more personal with your handwriting. There are great photo-safe markers that allow you to write directly on photos. Or use photo compatible archival ink and stamp your sentiments directly on the photos.
