Feeling frustrated by your holiday digital scrapbooking?
You're not alone.
Back in 2009, that’s exactly where I found myself.
I loved the layouts I’d created — but my albums lacked a cohesive story and at times, they didn’t feel like me.
So I set myself a simple challenge: one layout a month featuring a list of my top ten favorite things.
And after the first one, I was hooked.
I loved how it captured a mini time capsule of my life right then. I loved how the design and colors felt like me. But most of all I loved how easy it was to put together.
Instead of wondering what to scrapbook next, I had a clear plan. Instead of random layouts, I had mini time capsules capturing a snapshot of who I was in that exact moment.
Over time, my Monthly Faves layouts become my most favorite layouts ever.
Because here’s what I learned:
When you have a simple, repeatable framework, telling your personal story stops feeling hard and starts feeling fun, creative and easy.
That’s exactly what the Monthly Faves is designed to give you.
Maybe you want your scrapbooking to be more than events or holidays but you don't know what that looks like.
Maybe you’re tired of opening a new layout and thinking, “Okay… now what?”
Maybe you’re craving a new creative challenge — something more intentional, more YOU.
Maybe your pages look amazing…but they’re missing your personality.
Have you ever hit a point in your scrapbooking where you’re just…ready for something new?
Hey there, tech-lovin' memory keeper...

READY TO SEE WHAT'S INSIDE?
The rules were simple:
- My list had to include exactly ten items.
- Journaling had to be in list form, numbers optional.
- The layout title had to include the month followed by the word FAVES.
- Each layout had to include a NEW self-portrait taken during that specific month.
I repeated my Monthly Faves project in 2011, 2013, 2015, 2017, 2018....and welllll you get the idea.

PRAISE FOR THE FAVES
It’s a simple, cost effective project that will have meaning in years to come.
WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT
My top three fave things about the Faves: the templates, the group camaraderie
and the fact that it’s DOABLE. Yeah, I’m a Nettio project addict.
WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT
If you really want to get yourself in your scrapbook in an easy way, remember all the books you loved, movies, etc, capture a good snapshot of life, etc, Faves is really good!
WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT
It’s a great way to document the months with little things that you might tend to forget during the year. The picture is something you think about every month, even taking them to be in the faves. I like being able to use some of the many kits that I have purchased.
WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT
I love the Faves memory-keeping concept you have introduced into my life and have been keeping a Faves list every month for the past two years. It’s amazing what a rich document in turns out to be, in terms of all the memories that list will conjure up years later, of life moments big and small.
WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT
The Monthly Faves are an excellent way for someone who has not tried a lot of digital scrapbooking. This process is so quick without a lot of commitment, but the reward is so great after the full year! Twelve pages to practice each and every month!
