Did you start December Daily??

I use Bright White cardstock... since I do hybrid for PL too... it's just too expensive to always use presentation paper all year long... I'm pretty happy with the prints, it's not too much different... and I figure no-one knows but me LOL

so for anybody that does hybrid do you use presentation paper

Yep, I print all my pages on the Epson matte presentation paper. All the photo pages I print on epson glossy photo paper.

ETA: I've tried the generic bright white cardstock before and I don't like the colors I get with it nearly as much as the presentation paper. For me it's worth the extra cost but my Epson printer tends to be finicky that way.
 
I will say, with my old printer I had to use the presentation paper, but with my new printer I get much truer colors even on cardstock.

Yeah, most days I want to throw this printer out the window. :D Even Adam said the other day I should replace it. But I've done a bunch of tests with paper and settings and the presentation paper always wins out. I figure it's a conspiracy to get people to buy their paper, haha.
 
yeah I really love my little Canon printer and I am thinking I will send my pictures to WalGreens or to PP and then do it once a week :) I figure if I can keep up with the little journaling things and get those in my book, then all I will have to do is put the photos when I get them back :)
 
My printer SUCKS. So I had my journaling cards printed at Office Max. They look pretty sharp - now I just need to cut them.. ugh!! If I get a silhouette like I am hoping for Christmas - I'll have to convince dh to also get a new printer...
 
I hated my Epson ink printer, so I got a Samsung laser printer instead and I LOVE IT. So I'll be using the print and cut feature on my silhouette a lot for my December daily album.

Adi, December Daily is a concept from Ali Edwards. The idea is to document your Holiday season daily or however works for your family. It's usually done in it's own album or format too.

These are my albums from the past two years to give you an idea:

These are awesome!. What sizes are they?

I want chipboard but also page protectors (maybe?) and to incorporate project life pocket scrapping into all this but done all digitally with a few embellishments. I have to go and actually look at albums soon to plan. I think I am going to do a Holidays starting from Thanksgiving and continuing through New Years.
 
Does anyone do theirs non-square?

I have decided to throw caution to the virtual wind and do my album this year in 9x7. I haven't scrapped non-square in years and years, so I'm hoping I can temporarily adjust to it next month. :p

Thank you!

last year I did 8x8 in a basic grey binder, I believe.
The year before was 5x7, handbound.

This year I am doing 6x8 in a Sn@p album

I think those are a great size. Good luck! ;)
 
I'm sooooo indecisive right now. Trying to make the cover for my album. Can't make up my mind how big/small to make it. A5, 5x7 or 6x6.
 
i did, but then i found another kit i want to use. but i need to get busy! i think i am still trying to figure out my plan.
 
Hanba I lije 5x7 and 6x8 sizes....

I've done 5x7 the last two years and I loved that size because it wasn't too big or too small but I could still print two pages per 8.5x11 sheet on my home printer. This year I'm trying out 6x8 which isn't as convenient printing-wise but I like the size so far.

I ended up going for 5x7. I had planned to do it rektangular and I agree it feels like a good size; not too big or too small.
Here's the front cover:

I've gotten as far as picking the products that I want to use....but I still haven't decided on the size or pages yet....hopefully I'll get some time during the holiday weekend to start working on it
 
i don't exactly do a DAILY, but i do document our holiday season. rather than doing something each day, i just highlight the things that matter to us. currently i'm working on finishing up 2012's album. i tend to run about a year behind on projects like this *lol*
