2025 Project Life // Title Page + Album Set Up

2025 is my 13th year documenting my life with project life and this project has become such a meaningful part of my life. This year, I am documenting my life in a 9x12 album with weekly spreads. In nearly all previous years I documented weekly, but I have also tried monthly (2014) and "go with the flow" (2015).

I am a new subscriber ! I am so VERY grateful that I found your channel. I was a long time Project Life girl, from when Becky Higgins first started. I started out using 12 x 12 albums. Then I moved to a smaller home and needed to down-size my home. I then found Kelly Purkey and started using 6 x 12 (design H). This was a perfect size for me and I loved it. Then Kelly Purkey stopped all her social media and closed her shop and for some reason, I lost all interest. Fast forward many years to today and I have boxes of design H protectors and boxes of Project life cards, I was getting ready to take them all to Goodwill (donate) when I found your channel. You have inspired me to start again ! I don't know why so many people have strayed away from Project Life? It truly is an efficient system for memory keeping, I love your process and how you explain your decision making so well. I can't tell you enough how I appreciate that you are continuing to use project life. I will be binge watching all your videos. Thank You! Thank You! 🙂

[@LindaLovesCreating]

Thank you for being here!! So happy to hear that you’re coming back to project life. I hope you have tons of fun diving into your project. I have a lot of process videos here from the past few years and will continue to share this year. ❤️

[@laurencschaller]

excited to watch your 2025 albums come together! this will be my thirteenth year documenting in PL, as well. i have no plans to stop! such a fun, manageable way to memory keep. :)

[@LindaLovesCreating]

Thank you!! And totally agree.

[@lynniebcrafts8666]

Love this Linda! This will be my 5th year of doing Project Life and I wish I had started sooner! I love capturing the every day that we wouldn’t otherwise document… and I’m with you on starting and not waiting for the previous year to finish! Even if I’m behind on the others, I don’t like feeling behind on the new year! 💕💕💕

[@LindaLovesCreating]

Yes!! This project is so much fun and it’s so fun to start a new year’s album. ❤️

[@ActinForever]

LINDA, you never cease to amaze! Love love this and love watching you create!

[@LindaLovesCreating]

Thank you!! ❤️❤️❤️

[@allisonhiggins1826]

Love your starting page, thanks for sharing! This will be my 12th year of PL! I still love it and do a 12x12. Cheers to 2025!

[@LindaLovesCreating]

That’s awesome! It’s such a fun project and having all those completed albums is so amazing. ❤️

[@2beaglesGA]

LOVE the 2x2 idea. Def using that! May go back in the AE digi’s and grab the text from the 4x6 cards too! thanks for sharing! Chugging through DD so i can get to 2025!

[@LindaLovesCreating]

That’s a good idea too.

[@annadehaven4478]

Like you, I enjoy the documentation and creation process. I’m pretty much the only one who looks at my completed albums, too.

[@LindaLovesCreating]

Love this!! So happy to be amongst people who get it. ❤️❤️❤️

[@suewilliams6604]

Thanks for sharing the file, Linda!

[@LindaLovesCreating]

You’re welcome! I hope you enjoy it!

[@TheLhollis]

I’ve been thinking about switching from a 4x6 album to a 9x12. I found myself creating 2-3 page protector spreads for one trip when using the 4x6. It never felt cohesive and I found it difficult to use filler cards because I needed all of the pockets for pictures. You just convinced me 9x12 is the way to go. Thanks Linda!

[@LindaLovesCreating]

Wow, 4x6 would be so small for me! Congrats on making it work but I hope you find the 9x12 size works for you.

[@Dawngee3]

I’ve never done project life although I have a lot of the supplies to do it, including 12x12 albums and page protectors, but I really like the smaller 9x12 size! I like watching your process and organization tips! Thanks for the download!😊

[@LindaLovesCreating]

You're welcome! If you do consider this project, I have a lot more videos here on my channel to help get you started including a few years worth of process videos + an introduction video + tips series.

[@karensapp5647]

I always enjoy watching your videos! Thank you for the download. Happy New Year!

[@LindaLovesCreating]

Thank you! Happy New Year to you too. ❤️

[@MarilynR-nq7no]

Thank you for creating the monthly printable. I used this 4 x 6 card each month also.

[@LindaLovesCreating]

You're welcome! I'm excited to switch it up with the 2x2 pockets.

[@JessicaAnderson-yd8xv]

Hi Linda, thanks so much for sharing. I love this setup. I may have missed it, but where it the 2025 chipboard from?

[@LindaLovesCreating]

That, along with most of my supplies for this spread, are part of the Hello Story Kit from Ali Edwards. Thank you!

[@JessicaAnderson-yd8xv]

@ interesting because I just looked in my hello kit and didn’t have any chipboard. Maybe I overlooked it. Thank you

[@LindaLovesCreating]

⁠ hmmm. There definitely should be a sheet of chipboard in that kit. You can see details of everything that’s included in this blog post from Ali: aliedwards.com/2024/12/hello-story-kit-january-2025-stories-by-the-month. If you’re missing something definitely contact customer service!

[@elizabethyounkin9156]

I started memory keeping in 2010 and I’m still doing it because memory loss runs in my family and I want to hang on to them as long as possible and maybe it will be a comfort to my family when it’s all gone

[@LindaLovesCreating]

I totally get this, congrats on documenting more than a decade of memories!

[@amyalbers6145]

Ugh, I still have 't finished 2023. :( I think I'll skip '24 altogether (although it was a great year, with great pictures) and move on to 2025, then go back and finish '23 as I'm able. Always afraid I'll lose my motivation that way, but otherwise I'll just stay behind. Love your videos! You motivate me to keep at it!

[@LindaLovesCreating]

I haven’t finished my 2023 story album yet either. I highly recommend just starting with the new year and then going back to fill in gaps as you have time. If you’re working perpetually behind it will feel like you can never catch up and you won’t be excited to craft, this should be fun! ❤️
