Ah…July has come and gone, and I spent an hour and a half yesterday sorting through my iPhoto library, selecting a handful of images to best represent my family's month, and then dropped them into The Monthly template pages. They look like this:
This month, I'm skipping the divided page protectors portion of this project. Why? Because it's summer, and I can! Plus, I ran out of divided page protectors, so I have to order up some more!
The thing I really like about this project? Editing. Pure and simple. Instead of printing every living shot I take, I have to just say, "Okay, how can I pare it all down and still tell a visual story?"
That's the question I answer each month with this project and it never fails to make me feel good about how I'm choosing to save my photos.
