Project 365 - v2.0

I think I have found how I am going to use the Project 365 concept this year, but not have to dedicate so much time to it. I recently found Jessica Sprague's project "A Year in Our Ordinary Life." (Please forgive me but I forgot which blog I found it on. I browse through so many!)

The project features a 2-page digital layout for every month of the year. Each layout features 15 photos (12x15=180, so it's actually 'Project 180') highlighting the month, and journaling in list format that supports the photos and tells the story of the month.

I feel like this project is perfect for me. I will be able to scrap all my photos together without feeling the pressure to scrap everything. I can get all my thoughts down for the month and then move on. I can complete the layouts anywhere (thank you digital scrapbooking!), I can be as creative with the template and digital embellishments as I was, or I can leave it plain and simple.

I am really excited for this project, and, that's what really matters, right? I feel that this concept can really work for me and am thrilled to find a process that works for me in 2010. I urge you also to check out Jessica Sprague's website and blog and get to know her better. She never fails to inspire and her site is especially great for someone just learning digital scrapbooking, or maybe a seasoned digi-scrapper who needs some additional inspiration.

I will be posting my monthly layouts here on my blog at the beginning of every month. I can't wait for January to be over so I can put together my pages for the month! :-)

Thanks alot for the great idea! I'm also going to scrap a Project 12 album with Jessica's templates - I just finished January and it was so easy and fun!
