Project 365 Challenge

I was reading the Creating Keepsakes Magazine January 2009 and came across a challenge. It was to take a photo every day of the year and once a week do a simple 2 page layout featuring the 7 photos and 7 journal highlights and a couple of spaces for titling or bling. Or you could have have 7 small photos and 7 big journaling boxes or any combination. Check out the issue for lots of examples and more details. There is even a list of 365 ordinary ideas to help get you started on what you can take a shot of. In the magazine they are showing it done in paper and have a great kit you can purchase for the project. Click Project 365 Kit for more information.

I've decided I wanted to participate in this neat project but I wanted to do it digitally so I created a little template to help out with that. It is a 12x12 PSD template. I am sharing in case you would like to partipate too.

This is a great idea. Will you be sharing another template to go with this so there willbe spaces for 7 photos?

It will be fun to do a double page layout each week.

Jody asked was there a 2nd page because of 7 photos. The sample in the magazine that I used as my model uses the exact same page for both pages. They just fill in the extra space with titling or other embellishments. So to do the 2 pages just duplicate your template. I'll have a sample up after January 8th.

Thanks for sharing your template! It will be fun to see what you do with it so I'll be checking back. This 365 thing has some momentum right now so it will be interesting to see if we can all keep it going! I hope so! New Year blessings!

This template will be a great go-to template for the project with others in between (there are tons coming out at IkeaGoddess.blogspot.com)

Thank you for creating and sharing it.

I love this idea to take a picture a day. I haven't decided if I'll do paper or digital layouts, but I can start taking pictures now. Maybe it'd be a good beginner challenge for digital scrapping. :)
