PROJECT LIFE TRAVEL: CUTTING DOWN THE PHOTOS

This week’s Project Life covers the week of June 2-8… our vacation week to Disney World!

This summer I am switching up my Project Life format.  I decided the 12×10 page would be a great fit for summer (this spread is using Becky Higgins Design G pages). I have to be honest. I am not used to that 6×4 spot– but I am up for the challenge, and I have found some other great pocket pages that fit this size.

Documenting a big vacation in Project Life is hard.  I took about 2,000 photos this week between my DSLR and iPhone.  How do you cut down to just a few photos to document the week?   I decided to pull the photos that told the best story– and that’s not even necessarily my favorite photos from our trip.

It was hard to cut down.  But what I kept in mind was what stories I have been verbally sharing since we’ve been home with friends and family.  That was the highlights.   I am already planning to document this trip in an album of it’s own, so I felt free to just give a glimpse, and call it done.

As you can see I added very little journaling.  I used the numbered card from Shine Journaling Tags to include our favorite memories, and I called it done.   I could add a thousand stories onto this spread.  Leaving it clean (and knowing I could go in depth later in my travel album) allowed me to feel like I could complete this spread!
