2,187 Pictures of St. Maarten

June 27, 2011 by Meg | 6 comments

No lie.  I took 2,187 pictures on my honeymoon in St. Maarten.  2,187.  Yup.

I’m a scrapbooker!  I have to have pictures!

But seriously, what do you do with 2,187 pictures…it’s not humanly possible to scrapbook that many pictures without creating a ridiculous number of albums!

We R Memory Keepers to the rescue!

Last Friday, I gave you a sneak peak of the July 2011 Pages of the Month and hopefully you checked out the rest of the Pages of the Months we have on the Archiver’s website.  This is such a great way to keep scrappin’ all year long.  You can scraplift the page of the month (both the 12” x 12” layout and the hybrid page) and then add pages behind it for the other photos from that event.  Every month you’ll have a new layout to create!

For the pictures from my honeymoon, I’m going to do 12” x 12” layouts of certain pictures and events from the trip, but I don’t have the time to make a full layout for every single page.  I can use the We R Memory Keepers system to add pages of JUST photos, and maybe throw some journaling in there too.

This is what I’ve got so far:

I LOVE that We R Memory Keepers has so many different pocket pages.  I can change up every page so that I’m not just looking through page after page of 4” x 6”s.

The only bad thing about this is that I still haven’t scrapped my semester abroad from 2008.  I don’t even want to tell you how many pictures I took in 4 months whilst studying in Germany and traveling all over Europe.  Uff da.  I should probably work on those albums first (which will MOST DEFINITELY be We R Memory Keepers albums) before I start on the wedding and the honeymoon…but we’ll see.

Happy Scrappin’ everyone!

Pick of the Week: We R Memory Keepers binders

August 13, 2010 by Lindsey | 3 comments

They say “it’s what’s on the inside that counts.” Because when it comes to our scrapbooks, that is where the visual representation of our memories and written stories unfold. But, I’d also venture to say that “what’s on the outside” is pretty important too. 

I trust We R Memory Keepers 8 1/2″ x 11″ leather three-ring binders for keeping my projects safe and sound, and stylish too! The wide color pallete from red to navy, black, yellow, green, and more allows you to easily coordinate your album to your liking. For example, I selected the cheery red color to store my idea pages. When my monthly magazines hit the mailbox, I carefully tear out the ideas I’d like to “scrap-lift” and organize in We R Memory Keeper’s sturdy page protectors. I love turning the pages of this gallery of ideas and can always easily find what I need – talk about a convenient book! Did I mention that it holds a lot of pages too? 

My collection of binders also includes a black “guy book” as my husband calls it. In order to commemorate his accomplishments in competing in triathlons, I created an album that showcased his race photos and mementos, in a more classic fashion with simple matting and minimal embellishments. Guys like scrapbooks too, and this album answered the call.   

Next time you’re looking for a home for your project give these binders a try! You’ll gain flexibility by choosing from an assortment of page protector options (hybrid scrapbooking at its finest!), a professional appearance on your shelf or coffee table, and a piece that is as beautiful on the inside as it is out.
